Now maybe Santelli on CNBC will shut up about how unfair all this is to his stockbroker friends that own homes and do the "responsible thing". But I doubt it. He will be mouthing off about something else real soon now.

You needed a poll to figure this out?

If people bought more house than they can afford, why should others pay down their note?

If they didn't save to weather hard times, why should others pay down their note?

No more handouts to spendthrifts.

Agreed, agreed, agreed. I wasn't surveyed. I don't support a bailout for the delusional and irresponsible homeowner who bought into the line from the Dems (since the sixties) that anyone is entitled to have everything and anything, never mind if they weren't qualified, lied and falsified work history (assuming they even worked), were already living off of government programs, had appalling credit history, clearly were in over their heads from the get-go. I don't support bailing out the greedy on Wall St. or Main St., or those in the auto, entertainment or sports industries. You made your bed, now go lie in it. If you have to fail and fall flat on your you-know-whats, so be it. No one is helping me and all I'm getting is penalized for having done everything right and being forced to give more handouts to undeserving deadbeats.

I rather see averege Americans suffering from low wages and credit card debt be bailed out the Wall Street Republicans that insisted on 'globalizatiion' that shipped our good paying manufacturing jobs overseas.

"But some republicans are blaming the Obama administration for bailing them out without proper control"

Chip, are you serious??
You didn't call him out the same way you pretended to be outraged by Robert Gibbs' comment about DICK.

You're either a moron or incredibly dishonest. No wonder your ratings are going down the drains.
