Where is the Obama supporter/ Democratic outrage over this bailout of the rich DNC supporters? Its all fine and dandy to blame everything on the jackass GWB but when it comes out the numerous Democrats are fucking things up, no one cares? Wish I could word it better but I think you guys and gals can get the point I am making. Fuck all these Washington politicians in the ass!!!! The DNC is as dirty if not more dirty than the GOP.

for one, i am PISSED OFF about the bail out. 700 + billion dollars going to the already rich? fuck that jazz. 700 billion bucks could get a LOT of americans who's houses foreclosed paid for so there wouldnt be homeless folks. how about bailing out the american people out that NEED to be bailed out. they may have made some bad choices, but not nearly as bad as the choices these wall street fucks have made.

one other thing, there is quite a bit of outrage by liberal talk radio hosts about this wall street bailout, ftr. i listen to it, and they are not happy about it either, so dont make it sound like nobody on our side is saying anything about it.

Thank you!! I have been waiting for just one from the left to bitch about this horse shit. I would like to read some pissed off paragraphs from DF about the left for once instead of blaming it all on the right. Eversince I started on this site back in 04 or whenever, everyone on here blames GW and the Republicans for every bullshit thing that happens here, and now when the shit hits the fan and the major Democrat players are found out, no one wants to knock them on here?? Democrats siding with GW and this bailout??? The 12 that voted no from the left and the 87 or however many republicans voted no, are the only ones I have respect for!

WOW you are one of 2 people I know that still listen to talk radio!! More people should start doing that again!

No, there's more of us to the left that are pissed about it. I get what they say they're doing and why. I see the lending requirements tighten up and how it's impacting the entire economy. I just really really really really really really really object to how it was structured. It seems to me that a 2-prong plan that gives half the $$ to the banks for buying distressed mortgages at fire sale prices only to institutions that are willing to severely limit executive pay for a period of time in exchange for this help, and the other half to homeowners about to loose their homes to keep the rest of the mortgages solvent -- now that makes more sense. I was also more than a little disgruntled that the republican's wouldn't back it without a bunch of pork hanging off of it. That just makes me cranky. In fact, really, the news makes me cranky. I need alcohol to watch it, most days. That or chocolate.

alcohol works better than chocolate watching the shit!!!

Both sides of the aisle need to fuck off! There was no huge bailout in 1987 and guess what, the market worked itself out. Anyone else notice the worldwide fallout from this shit? The Chinese market dropped like 400 points yesterday, same with the European and Japanese. The insanity of this global web of shit is astounding.

Yeah, I saw that the other markets dropped, too. I guess some German banks are having trouble, etc. Its interesting that we have all these political differences with foreign relations, etc. Then when something having to do with money goes south, you can find out how much they are really intertwined with us.

100% of music on the radio sucks. What is a guy who is obsessed with politics to do? TALK RADIO! I listen to both sides, read the paper, read blogs and fact check and blah blah blah. I make my own decisions based on my values, and I am a liberal, so I vote Green/Democratic.
