''The original idea was: Spend $700 billion in tax dollars to buy troubled mortgage-related assets from struggling banks.''

Obviously Paulson doesn''t even know what he''s doing or how to get out of this mess. A hydrogen bomb just went off in the economy and all he''s doing is applying band aids.

Oversight? Hmmmm we''re still under the Bush regime--Merry Christmas friends of Bush--your last hurrah!

I''m starting now--with Obama!
