Spin what?

A response to a "youtube" video?

I don''''t visit "youtube" sites until I know what''''s posted there - I don''''t want to waste my time. Apparently from the responses to your post, no one else does either.

===The best way to calm the financial position is to distribute the 7 billion dollars to every household in the US (I think it comes out to around $200,000 a household), the American would then pay off his/her debt, everybody owns their house, everyone gets their money, and it IS that simple. Duh===

Great plan. But, where do we get the money? We need to tax the taxpayers to get the money to sent to the taxpayers. Do we only sent it to taxpayers or do we do the Oblama welfare plan and send it to those that don''t pay taxes?

Whatever we do, we shouldn''t forget what Bush did. Bush slashed taxes, but didn''t slash spending. This, in effect, makes a HUGE bet on the global economy with PUBLIC FUNDS. Thats FINE if the bet pays off, but its disaster if it doesn''t (and history shows aka Reagan that it never has): the taxpayer ends up paying the bill for both administrations. Worse, in Bush''s case alot of that tax break money went into shady mortgage lending that was leveraged into even shadier derivatives which were then invested all over the world. That is SO WRONG to do with our tax dollars, but thats what was done. The silver lining is that some of these investments will pay off. We need to perserve the credit markets by BUYING out the problem banks with loans, stock warrants, whatever, so that when these investments pay off we can at least get paid back for this latest generosity.

No bailout: buyout.

What is Bush trying to hide? I just know there is an ulterior motive here that is not coming to light. I personally would like to see some more "sweeteners" added to this that directly help the American middle class, because obviously that is who will be paying for this. In other words, I smell a rat.

Like i stated before, Bush proberly has money tied up in the market somewhere that would proberly quadruple when this bill goes thru. Why do you think him and Cheany went into Iraq so fast.Oil. And everyone knows the Bush''''''''s have great money tied up in oil and as for Cheany, he would benifit form all the constuction projects that he has money in. O''''''''yes they are not telling us everything. Few more months in office, perfect reason to try soooooooooooooooooooooooooo hard to pass this bill. Bush fooled us about Iraq time around. like a wise man onced sad,"Fool me once, shame on you. But fool me twice, SHAM ON ME". I dont know about the rest of y''''all but I wont be fooled twice!

I am calling for armed revolt against the Federal Government of the United States. Rise up and forcibly depose those who have taken your authority. If you will not then you deserve the slavery they are imposing upon you. If you think that there is still another way, you are naive at best; at worst, in denial.

You think the war in Iraq is costing us too much? Obama and the Democrats tell us that every day. But, I am confused. We%u2019ve been hammered with Democratic propaganda. that it is the Iraq war and the war on terror that is bankrupting us. I now find that to be RIDICULOUS.Posted by FREEDOMBIKER at 02:44 PM : Oct 02, 2008

What??? I find your remarks ridiculous.

What the heck have you got against health care for anyone? Food stamps for hungry people, I don''t care WHO they are. What could you possibly have against that?

As if the War on Terror is the only high dollar Bush ticket item that US taxpayers had to pay for? You worry about illegals getting health care while Bush is handing out your hard earned money for corporate welfare? He''s given billions to the airlines, the auto industry, tax breaks to the oil industry, and now Wall Street.

Between health care and food for people (and I don''t care where they are from) VS giving money to shore up or take over corporations like a good socialist government; me, I personally would pick people over corporations.

But I guess that is a big difference between you hard-nosed Republicans and us "bleeding heart" liberals, and by the way...how did YOUR ancestors get into this country anyway?

Unless you are a native American, you might want to check into your family line before denying things like food and medical care to illegals.

Purchasing of subprime and alt-A mortgages expanded exponentially under the guidance of Raines''''s successor Daniel H. Mudd.

And the original lenders were pressured into making loans to unqualified borrowers because of pressure applied by groups like ACORN. ACORN learned it''s tactics from none other than community organizer Barrek Oblama.
