Paulson doesn''''t have a clue as to what to do with all that money--now that he has announced buying up the banking industry---the market is tanking again---doesn''''t matter what these guys do--the market will tank--hopefully things will turn around when Obama gets someone in there that knows what their doing.

He just wants to save Goldman sachs he was the CEO and has three from Goldman Sachs working on the 770 tax payers money, and now take over the banks, and not a shot fired. I feel a coo here. The news media can''t get a thing out of them who are the overseaers of this debacle Bush and Cheney

The Great Emperor Bush II is babling about "nationalizing" the banking system.

John McBush McCain is babbling about the government buying up all the home mortgages, "adjusting them" to the new market value of the property, and having homeowners make lower payments on the lower value of your home.

In other words, Bush and McBush want to nationalize the banking system, nationalize the mortgage industry, and make government BIGGER by getting involved in EVERYONE''S life!

This must be giving the really true Conservatives out there FITS!!!! This isn''t what William Buckley, the founder of conservatism, would have liked AT ALL!!!

However, as Rush "Drug Store" Limbaugh would say, Buckley is dead and his ideas are old fashioned!

LONG LIVE NATIONAL SOCIALISM!!!!

SIG HEIL, MY FAVORITE BOOK IS "MEIN KAMPF"!!!, BUSH!!!
sig heil, MY FELLOW PRISONERS!!!, McBush!!!
sig heil, MY "FIRST DUDE" WILL HANDLE EVERYTHING!!!, Palin!!!

To find the silver lining in this, maybe we will finally wake the f up and take back our country from the fascists. Before, I wasn''t getting tortured so it was OK. My city wasn''t being bombed so that is OK. They weren''t locking me up with no charges so it was OK. But mess with my money and I''ll kill ya. The American sheeple must be the most scared, stupid people I have ever seen. Must be too much TV.

TOO LITTLE, TOO LATE. Hey, don''t worry, we''ll be alright...We''ll become a nation of have-nots, seniors will be on the dole because their retirement accounts will have evaporated, yet wall street execs. will be living it up at the spa on taxpayer''s "bail-out" dollars. Just be sure to vote!!! Be sure to get more bang for your buck and look up ACORN before registering to vote...Their motto is "vote early, vote often".

Boy, the righties must HATE this government intervention! Oh, I forgot, they want it only it benefits their fat, sorry butts.

Welcome to the new age of American fascism. In the next 30 days we will find out if this will become Nazi Germany.

The WAR needs to END TODAY and Gas needs to drop below $3, to help the economy get back in track.

While Bush is at it, why doesn''t he consider taking over ownership of oil companies. After all, oil companies have a greater impact on Americans than the US Postal System will ever have.
