    If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!The public outcry against the bailout bill has been tremendous. Phones are ringing off the hook and people are peeved. That hasn’t stopped both Obama and McCain from getting on top of the bailout and touting it as necisarry. They both voted for the bill as well...

    I have to give these twenty-five brave souls credit. The fear mongers have been screaming that the Apocalypse was coming but they held their own. For whatever reason they decided to stand up for the American people. They didn’t listen to the cries of Wall St. or the begging of President Bush, Barack Obama or John McCain. Here is the list of t...

    The amendment has been passed. 74-25. Total crap sandwich. Stay tuned for roll call vote. I do know that both Obama and McCain voted yes. It now goes to the house to decide if we have to pay Wall St. up to a trillion dollars. Bravo. Roll call will show up here once it is available. Here is the Senate site to watch.

    We dodged a bullet with the first bailout being shot down in the House but we’re about to see it make it’s rounds in the Senate. What the bailout bill will be is not clear at this point. All that is clear is that they will be voting on some sort of bailout bill tomorrow (Wednesday) at 9PM. Michelle has all the details that we know of at...

    John McCain and Barack Obama have both been playing it safe with the bailout bill. McCain ran back to Washington and tried to “move things along” and Obama stayed behind and blamed Bush for the failure in the first place after the bailout collapsed. Ron Paul isn’t someone that the media usually runs to when it wants an opinion but...
  • The Trillion Dollar Bailout Has Failed

    It sounds like some people in the House of Representatives have decided to actually represent the people that voted them into office. The final verdict was 228-205. Thanks to the Republicans the unconstitutional bailout bill was shut down. 133 Republicans said no and 95 Democrats said no. We were told that the bailout failure would spell disaster f...

    Ever since we heard about the failure of several private companies and how we have to bail them out we’ve been told that it is dire and absolutely necessary. President Bush swarmed in and told everyone if we didn’t give $700 billion to the treasury to hand out to Wall St. we would looking at the second great depression. Isn’t it i...

    The government has been quite generous lately. Handing out money it doesn’t really have to give out. I think it’s great that we live in a society that can make risky investments without worry. You go ahead and make those foolish investments! The government will be here to bail you out! The government doesn’t need to be going aroun...
