- It really doesn''t matter what Bush supports, or does not support, any longer.
He''s a TOTALLY lame duck - without the full support of even his own party. He can either go along with the majority, or get run over. He doesn''t even have enough political capital left to sustain his vetoes. - Reply to this comment
- No matter how hard he tries, bush will never have a legacy...at least not one to be proud of. Has anyone heard anything about impeachment proceedings against him before he leaves office? I heard the Democrats were considering it last week but I haven''t heard anything since. That''s one event I''d buy tickets for! Only 181 days left! YES!!!!

- This bill is meant to save the Trillion Dollar Hedge Funds that are dependent on this idea that Freddie and Fannie are government guaranteed!!! This is the Biggest crime ever committed on the American people!!! This action today will result in the ultimate bankruptcy of this nation!!!! That CBS is reporting this as a bailout of the homeowner shows me who owns and operates CBS. TODAY THE CONGRESS IS COMMITING A CRIME AGAINST THE AMERICAN PUBLIC. ESPECIALLY AGAINST THE MIDDLE CLASS!!!

- The ******-In-Chief is still trying to guarantee some sort of a legacy, even as a "liberal." What a too-little, too-late putz.

- I hope everyone realizes that this bailout is simply going to be added to the National Debt. That means that ALL of us...and our children will be assisting in paying off someone else''s mortgage and the burden assumed by these lenders for making loans they failed to scrutinize properly.

- Bush is such a disappointment. Just waste more tax dollars, George. Why don''''t you just change parties and become a democrat? You spend tax money like one.

July 22 (Bloomberg) -- Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson, trying to persuade Congress to approve his rescue plan for Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, said U.S. financial market stability is at stake and international investors are awaiting the outcome.
``This is about not only our housing markets, but it''''''''s about our capital markets more broadly,'''''''''''''''' Paulson said in an interview with Bloomberg Television today. ``This goes well beyond the two institutions -- Fannie and Freddie -- it has to do with investors in the United States and investors all over the world.''''''''''''''''

- This Bill is a wolf in sheeps clothing. This Bill is a bail out for the greedy loan companies that devised and offered these failed loans. This Bill is a bailout for the large corporations that buy long term loans for retirement and health insurance conglomerate corporations. Business should not be profiting from retirement funds nor health insurance. These industries should be strictly non profit with tight controls on staff salaries including the upper management. No one should be making million dollar salaries in these industries like the upper management of the Red Cross Organization.

- Rep. John Boehner, the Republican minority leader, told colleagues that he would "vote against this bailout bill, and that taxpayers deserve a lot better than this," according to a senior party aide.
======================
Right....taxpayers deserve better bailouts like Bear Stearns, IndyMac, Freddy Mac.....etc...etc. - Reply to this comment
- Very nice. And while Congress and Mr. Bush are at it, perhaps they can intervene and get my mortgage interest rate lowered, as well.

- looks liek Congress has finally beaten the decider...
this guy is a ******, and he is gettin gbeat like th edog that he is.
I also agree with the statement that all of these handouts to the corporations are a form of socialism. Why is it ok to bail out those who caused the mess, but not those who were effected by the mess ?
the fact is money needs to be invested that really creates infrastrucutre and jobs for Americans. Bush gave tax breaks to corporations and the welathy and they didn''t do squat with that cahs but pad their own bottom lines.
You can not trust the welathy, they would sell there children down a river to make a profit.
The people in this ocuntry need to elect politicians that will stand up to these greedy SOB''s, Wallstreet, and the corproations and return the power to the people like the constitiution declares.
The wealthy deserve to be punished, and they shoul dbe forced to rebuild social security because its these wealthy pigs that have taken away most of our pension plans, and have stolen from social security not caring at all what the effect on us workers was or is. - Reply to this comment
- I know Bush is about to die having to do something for the middle class and repubs will be quick to label it a handout. But I wonder, why arent all the wingnut repubs upset about the $25 billion tax payers are giving to Freddie Mae and Freddie Mac? Isn''t this socialism, welfare, income redistrubution or even fascism, or do these repub scare words only apply when money is given to ordinary citizens?

- Wow. I''m so glad that my wife and I worked so hard, saved our money, bought a first home, renovated it, saved more, made sure our credit scores stayed excellent, and built our second home. It is all worthwhile, when you see stupid people with no common sense getting bailed out of sub-prime mortgages by the Federal government because the interest rates climbed. These people KNEW they were just rolling the dice... they ROLLED the dice... they put their money on the table... AND THEY SHOULD LOSE IT!!!!! Punish the mortgage brokers who pushed these loans through, knowing the risk as well, but more interested in a fast buck, and who played the house odds against these foolish buyers. Tighten up the laws governing mortgages and sub-prime mortgages. But don''t bail out the dumb people who thought the dice were going to come up their way.
