But think about what will happen if President Obama let's these banks fail. That the banks will not be able to make good on their payments and there will be a run on the banks. The banks will totally collapse. Then the country will collapse. Obama is smartly taking emergency measures. These stimulus bills and the tax increase on the rich prevent the worst from happening.
LOL, it's like these protesters just realized for the 1st time in their lives what taxes are for and now they think it's a brand new concept. Somebody needs to tell them that EVERY goverment uses tax dollars to fund social programs and to assist with other nonprofit programs. This is not unique to America. Then somebody needs to tell them that they are getting a tax cut while the rich get a tax increase because the combined wealth of 95% of the population is still less than the Rich 5%.
you know, someone asked the same tea party question in austin, which makes me think that maybe there is a movement afoot to dilute the "new way forward" idea by allying it with the teabaggers, which are easily pigeonholed and made fun of. i see both sides, and in austin some of the folks werte thionking of attending the tea party as well with the "new way" message.
there should be synergy there, in as far as there is some parallel msg.

Why did she need a megaphone? She could have spoken to that entire crowd without being loud enough to wake up a sleeping baby.

'That's what Democracy and America is supposed to be about'? Really? That guy needs a dose of James Madison's cluebat right upside his head.
