    Why is it that the democrats who are in the majority get nothing done?

    And then the Repulicans who are in the minority are chided for not doing things that Republicans don't support on principle.

    If the democrats are confident that they are right why don't they just do it and then take credit for it?

    Because they know they will get vetoed. Harry Reid reportedly stormed out of the meeting. First he wanted John McCain there, then after John McCain decided to go, Harry Reid flip-flopped. What goofballs.

    Bush wants this bail out too. So it is doubtful that he would veto it.

    The democrats don't seem to have much excuse for not doing what they say should be done - other than wanting the Republicans to take the blame.

    My guess is that the majority of taxpayers don't support this huge bail out.

    It's time to get rid of all these goof offs on both sides of the aisle. They have let us down through their mismanagement. And yet we citizens will be idiots and put them all back in office again.

    Well, the nation is on watch today to see how McCain will save the Nation. A blind man can see these latest actions are just preparing the stage for his dramatic rescue.
