Bailout Plan! The House Aint Buyin It!!

[jimadoo]

2 1/2 years later this guy is a genius.

[bush1tman]

I'm reading The Housing Boom and Bust by Thomas Sowell. Very enlightening.

[ItsTime2Awaken]

Too bad neither Bush nor Obama listened to you and took your advice. Wise words...

[marceads]

That's fine all of you Bush haters...just keep pointing your fingers. The current package is fucking worthless as well. Let's see what your "black christ" is capable of. We are going backwards people. Why was there 900 million for Palestine attached in our economic stimulus package? This is your president and congress in action. Fuck Palestine, fuck this congress, and fuck this bailout program. What we really need is a revolution. Hopefully next election. P.S. Nancy is a cunt.

[Budguy68]

Yes, his a real Republican.

[JK68LC]

And this is why Bush, Paulson and greenspan should be in jail. This guy is a REAL republican.

We can not re-float the bubble to save wall street.

Bush in Jail. Paulson in Jail. Greenspan in Jail.

[keyrubell]

Private companies that received bail out loans from the government should all implement a salary cap of $400,000.00. In other words, they should not pay their employees anything above $400,000.00. Untill, that it is, they decide to pay the tax payers back with interest. The restructuring of their salaries will allow for more profitability on their part and more accountability on ours. 

[louis12346]

DeMint said. Its not being picked up at all by the mainstream media and thats why again, were going to have to take our message through you to the people, PHONE SENATE NOW, anyone who will talk about whats really in the bill. We dont need to make it up. Its like theyre in a different reality. Theyre talking about a bill, that when you look at it, theres no resemblance to what theyre talking about.

EMAIL CONGRESS grassroots efforts to put brakes on this stimulus package JUST SAY NO

[zivjax]

The Republican Party needs to filled with people like McCotter and get rid of the "dealmakers".

[weelittlewillie]

Great Video ,,,but the big question is if we 're lossing all this money , then " WHO " is gainning all the " MONEY " Pust be someone we know ...lol would to hear ansewr ?

[PeterSodhi]

This country is run by the same banking traitors that Thomas Jefferson warned us of. To recap :

"I sincerely believe... that banking establishments are more dangerous than standing armies, and that the principle of spending money to be paid by posterity under the name of funding is but swindling futurity on a large scale." --Thomas Jefferson to John Taylor, 1816.

[WillWolfson]

I'd never heard of Mccotter before this. What a sharp guy.

[IvanXDurham]

ANY GUYS UP?

ANYONE UP?  I NEED SOMEONE TO TALK TO ij

[tenagliac]

Too bad his sensibilities did not prevail.

They caved into the biggest swindle/fraud in the history of the world.

Now it is time, before any more money is released for Congress to demand detailed accounting. How much spent on this or that. Many of us could be fired if the money box was off by $100 at the end of the day. If Congress pays for it, Congress has the right to know and direct the spending of those funds.

[i8topees]

start reading survival books he's right if the gover. can't stop idiots in planes how can they stop greed!!!!

[kostea13]

look at the video responses THERE IS THE TROUTH !!!

[JK68LC]

My new hero, I saw him in the last hearing on the wall street bail out and now he is so right...

[EasyE38]

Thaddeus McCotter comes accross as VERY intelligent and presidential, and he makes friggin sense. He's an up and comer in the republican party, no question

[NearingZero]

I've got a idea the ones who have the least, we'll give to the ones who have the most. And we'll call it a capitalist society. You know a democracy.

[paperforests]

Thaddeus McCotter, prim and proper.

[nosupecualponerme]

any way ,they want a bail out.HOW ABOUT BAIL OUT THE WHOLE COUNTRY,give each family a 20g check ,that will be used to buy a house,repair a house,buy a car or repair a car,this its the logical solution,help the economy this way u will buy a house u a car, their claim (''we can no sell car or houses'')

then this its the solution,but no to give$700,000,000,000 or $25,000,000,000. because they cant sell.the money belongs to all of u,its money that was taken a way from u with out even asking u

[Bankingcartel]

I like this guy. I think the house Republicans maybe the only Americans left in Nazi Washington.

[eyesoverskies]

and this only has 21,000 views? haha ...yeah right.

[StopMKold]

This guy is Awesome! Paul-McCotter 2012?

[GLRII]

God bless Congressman Thaddeus McCotter. I hope he becomes a Republican leader in the House in 2009.

[galaxyworldwide877]

What would you all do if they split up the $700 billion and gave a chunk to each of us? What would you spend it on? Leave a message on my page or send response in a video. I will post the best 10 answers in a video poll.

[zivjax]

That's stupid. It's OUR MONEY in the first place! What are you suggesting? Redistribution of funds?

[galaxyworldwide877]

This is money collected over a long period of time in small increments, There is not much buying or investment power in that. Isn't a lump sum payment exactly what the economic stimulus package was?

[lumpagogo]

The bailout is the "socialism" the Talk Radio

lice love to ascribe to Borat Hussein O'Belchki.

[Itravelbackintime]

Oh Great..a government "for Wallstreet" not "for the people". Votes for sale to the highest bidder..going once..going twice. Sold!! to Wallstreet..I'm mean sold out Main Street.

[vanagon555]

you, my friend, are my next president!!! Well spoken. McCotter/Palin!!!!

[kewlaznkid00]

go to prison planet . com (without the spaces) and find out the truth about the bailout plan. people in high positions THREATENED martial law if the bill did not pass.

[KevinSanAngelo]

Thaddeus McCotter for president. Dump every member that voted for this monstrous abuse of congressional power. Wall street's very existence is threatened by bogus bailout bs.

[vanagon555]

hear hear

[freebird100]

If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their money, first by inflation and then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around them (around the banks), will deprive the people of their property until their children will wake up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered. -

Thomas Jefferson

[toaster1971]

I want him as my rep! :)

[billy2bob]

Pure wisdom.

[stanton721]

It would be more comforting to have Romney still running for the President. He is better equipped to handle an economic travesty like this and turn it around than either McCain or Obama. I guess we (USA) are getting what we asked for unfortunately (one of two ill-equipped candidates for president.

[freebird100]

Romney is a establish suck azz.

He would follow along like the good,little puppy dog he is.

[enotdetcelfer]

badass speech.. long-run strength and stability means we have to learn from (live through) the consequences of our (our representative's) errors. we should be changing the system (checking the power of the fed) instead of patching up the symptoms..

[fireliar90]

Now i see people saying why not give each person a sum of money to pay the banks back. it's way easier and faster for everyone to send their money to the gov and have them distrubute it to teh few banks out there that need it to stay open. For this guy, great speech and definitely for the people

[fishpaw09]

I have a better bailout plan-since they have 700 billion to throw away why dont they give every US citizen 1 million dollars and we can all pay off our debts and the then the banks will be in fine shape and so will the economy. Just a thought.

[aynm]

Here's another thought: 300 million times $1 million is $300 trillion. Do they have that much to throw away, you adorable super-genius?

[fishpaw09]

I was never good at math, ok, but Im still an adorable super-genius;)

[xenimous]

if u was pres. and did that you'd get asassinated! but god that would help the usa! too bad its not about the people, its about the companys that run "the people" the usa is becomming nazi germany, good going bush.

[bjjfiter]

absolutely brilliant speech. Congress should be stepping up here to protect the people, instead of falling in line with a very narrow-minded and ignorant government intervention that will do nothing but perpetuate what got us into this mess.

[TheInternetMurderer]

MOARRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!

[Krumbz2003]

I'm a big time Democrat/Liberal and I thought his speech was fantastic and it represented my views entirely.

Now this was a good Republican here. This guy represents the newer generation of Republicans whose ideologies are MUCH closer to those held by Democrats. Maybe one day we'll be able to put Partisanship behind us.

With that said... Obama has my vote. Hands down. His policies are heads and shoulders above McCain and Palins.

(Lightyears above Palins).

[valchang]

just for your awareness: Obama and McCain and Biden voted for the Bailout (both the failed one and the current one).

[freebird100]

Right you are.

Ron Paul was the candidate we needed.

[ngord]

That is a man I would vote for

[agavetea]

how come guys like this can't be chairman of the House Financial Services Committee instead of marshmellow-mouth Barney Frank.

[Daddy9Long]

Anyone have the number to the bail out branch of gov. I need it just in case I loss my job! Maybe it's some sort of lib hot line.. that when you call, you can't understand what there saying because that job has been outsourced!!!!!!!!!!!

[1911arthur]

The trillion dollar bailout equals giving every family in America a check for $100,000!

Give us the money and we can buy the greedy bankers vacant houses!

We want the Golden Parachute!

No bailout for them!

[bokonon82]

You're an idiot that can't do basic division.

[tadsgirl]

Maybe because the majority of the country was against it too.

We killed this like we killed the amnesty bill

[p0pular54]

Good job!!!!

[AStew34]

i heard while everyone is turnin to gold theyre going to crash that market also once they make all the profitss off of the ones who are buyn at inflated prices.

[luke666808g]

I'd like to see that 401k priced in ounces of gold 2 years down the line if the bailout passed, the turmoil started about a year ago, and if I look at the dow chart I'll see a pretty little upward trend before that, but if you price the dow in gold starting from 2000 it has been crashing that entire time, so I'm considering putting money in the market right now, but most likely it is going to be an ETF gold fund...

[1helluvaguy]

He did. He voted against it.

[oceanundertows]

Thaddeus, you are THE man. Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU sir!

[aloha270999]

Finally a Repulican with average IQ!

Average people like u n me have only the Voting power, thats it, thats what the politicians want and after that screw us!

Make sure ur vote count. (and vote this guy in too). Hell with Bush for Being a reverse Robin Hood! We r NOT bailing billionairs out!

[tommyz1052]

It failed because Barney Frank , Pelosi, Emmanuel politicized things from the beginning to protect Obama by saying there was a DEAL when there wasnt ,as soon as McCain came to Washington.

They didnt allow the house to vet out things, leaving the House Replubicans out made them loose votes.

And the appauling thing is Nancy Pelosi allowed 90 democrats to not vote for a bill when they are in the majority.

Barney Frank, Cleyborn et al in 2004 blocked and mocked oversite of fannie mae/freddie mack

[Powerkicker]

Well said Sir!

[branmakmorn]

ahahaha!wow who wolud have had thought there were still members of congress with guts!! :D Im proud of the these guys who finally after 8years got fed up and fought back against this adminstration.

[13k13a13c]

RUSH: a rookie senator,"the markets and the world need to see that our government's come together to do the right thing"? So the world is waiting to see what the House Republicans do? This is the pressure that they're trying to bring to bear..."God bless the House Republicans." What if the House Republican plan is better? ...a question that no pundit raises.", House Republicans don't cave- there is too much at stake...

[riceowlex]

Naw this is just bullshit before an electon. This SOB has voted yes to every other criminal act by this administration and belongs in shackles right next to all the rest!

[discorsage]

Someone in the military industrial complex forgot to mail this guy his pay off check.

[letigre937]

i *heart* thaddeus.

snazzy suit PLUS snarky criticism = yes.

HEY, COWBOY CAPITALISTS: DON'T REINFLATE THE BUBBLES!

[Cossack007]

Everyone should check out the website called WebOfDebtDOTcom

[KiteFlyingVespa]

What did he say at the very end before he walked off?

[corporatewarrior]

"I yield back." He growled it. Genuine anger there.

[KiteFlyingVespa]

Thank you.

[yubbayubba]

Agreed. I think we should all be just as angry.

[KiteFlyingVespa]

Understandable. And this is a great speech.

[aires12345678]

that should be presindent right now he have a plan to get us outer of this mess.

[Nikalian88]

OF THE PEOPLE! FOR THE PEOPLE! BY THE PEOPLE!

This country was based on God and thank God for the Republican party to not jump into the bail out! Thank you Mr McCotter Sir!

[acce245]

No, this country was based on the idea of god, as proposed by a book written by some really old men. Don't fool yourself into thinking either party in a Bipartisan system is innocent... It is the people that make up the parties that make the differences, not the parties as a whole.

[pennyrosy]

Finally, another Rep. similar to Ron Paul! Thank you, Mr. McCotter!

[DillonX]

Call or email your representative in Congress to stop this maddness --- NOW --- AS TIME IS RUNNING OUT!

[geo1671]

McCotter ought to know that not one policy from Bush was right and he supported them. Why the turn around--cause Bush is finished and along with most of the vermin Repigs. This is grandstanding for re-election folks. however, I agree that Wall streets needs a good kick in the groan--let them suffer. Problem is that they are all filthy,greedy Joos and the demoos know it.That is why Obama wants the bailout.I hope Americatanks-it deserves it--too FKN stupid to know that nuked on 911 attacks :^)

[keshufi]

In this bailout, McCotter correctly likens the top Republicans to Mao and Stalin. Sadly, he misses that this can be applied to a much broader swath of Republican activities over the last eight years. After all, an apple doesn't just happen to fall from an orange tree. As to your question, will McCotter stand behind his strong words? Unfortunately, this is largely election-tine posturing to distinguish McCain from Cheney.

[bad03accord]

Thank you Republicans for standing up for the American taxpayers.  Great speech Rep. McCotter, thank you thank you.

[Bernie95]

This young man knows his stuff. Mao and Stalin killed millions to get what the Bush criminals are trying to swindle the American sheeple for. Arrest and hang them from swine hooks with piano wire (after a fair trial of course)then put men like McCotter in charge.

[eerik123455]

Those auto industry loans for $25 billion are in the same category. If they get them nothing will change. We the taxpayer are being fleeced because Bill Ford is a fuck up and can't manage a company. Why do we have to pay Bill Ford out of our taxes? Let him go to business school or get out of the job...

[CaylinSoo]

Give 'em hell, McCotter! The bail out plan is nothing but a fascist takeover of the United States.

Stick Paulson and all his thieving banker buddies in a FEMA camp in East Texas or Louisiana--without any ice!

No bail out!!

[xjlmt]

A true rarity - a republican with a brain.

[kjpdqpb]

3 cheers!

HIP HIP.

HIP HIP.

HIP HIP.

What you didn't hear from me was Hurray!

I was too busy leading the way to hear it from everyone else!

[Desnoxvu]

good job republicans who are against this bailout. Completely reject this bailout and we may keep some of you in office.

[Cassandrea007]

And Nobama was THEIR ATTORNEY...This so-called 700 Billion bail out the Dems are trying to cram down our throats has 20 million in pork for Acorn..yup you read right..the DEMS are adding insult to injury and their precious ho they call Nancy Pelosi is sticking in more for a so-called Stimulus package for her poor people!!..Wealth Distribution AND Corruption!!..Wake up America..McCain/Palin '08 Not Marxism

[AnonymousBChurch]

Proposed by Bush's Treasury Secretary and his Fed Chair. The main GOP objection? The US would not be giving free money to banks, but would get warrants.

You're a fraud.

[nazkira]

From what I've read of the Republican plan, it's as retarded as the Democrat's plan, if not more so.

Nevertheless, I'm glad to see any kind of stall in this process, regardless of where it comes from.

If congress can't come up with a deliberate, reasoned and rational plan - which takes TIME - then we have no reason to believe that INACTION is any worse than their shot-in-the-dark "rescue" plans.

[TYX91101]

There will be no plan. Only purchase of more time to avoid the inevitable. You can't cure a debt problem with more debt.

Keep some cash at home while you look for a strong local bank.

[DillonX]

I'm glad to see many Republicans bucking Bush on this.

This guy realizes that the money ain't coming to Michigan -- ALMOST ALL WILL BE GOING TO THE FAT-CATS IN NYC WHO CREATED THIS MESS!

Thank you Republican Representive McCotter!

[MeanStreakIzzy]

END THE FED!

The End Begins November 22nd

Every Fed Bank. Every Fed Office.

38 Cities. One Purpose.

END THE FED! w w w*endthefed*US w w w*endthefed*blogspot*com

[Flyboysdaughter]

t4705mb6, thx for the input. However, I agree that, as usual, it's Windfall Time for the wealthy, if addlepated few who gambled and lost. And, as usual, it's the fast-disappearing middle class that is forced to clean up the mess. I just hope that they don't forget what happened shortly after Marie Antoinette advised the starving to "eat cake"...

[t4705mb6]

Did you know that the US government could have reorganized the home loans in default under LAW?

They could have taken all the default loans, set a FIXED 4% interest rate and reset time paybacks in 2 1/2 year increments up to 30 years and returned the banks to TOTAL solvency... OVERNIGHT!!

This trillion dollar "bailout" is to save the RICH so that THEY can keep their limos, mansions, castles and so they can continue to play golf and polo while keeping one foot on YOUR neck!!!

[Flyboysdaughter]

Thanks for this--can you provide documentation?

[t4705mb6]

There are MANY ways that this could be done.

The easiest way today would be for Bush to create a "signing statement" using the broad powers of the Patriot Act, saying that it was a "National Security" issue (which he practically DID say in his speech).

It will never happen. Congress has been bribed. This is a windfall for the wealthy investors and a shackle for us and our children. Bush has a bill that comes due on the 30th and hes desparate.

[SweetCaroline1971]

Wow! Great Speech!!!!!

I can't believe some of these posts blaming Republicans for deregulation!

"Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac used the implied backing of the government to grow so large that their takeover by the government effectively doubled the national debt!!! And they were pushed by their executives and the Clinton Administration to loosen their lending standards and write the loans that drove the companies to the point of being bailed out by the taxpayers."

Senator Bunning 9-26-08

[travelinguy06]

He is against it BECAUSE IT SUCKS ASS!

Are you a MORON, or a BANKSTER, or a Stockbroker!

All 3 are worthless shit in my book!

[whattheschmidt]

there's a guy that deserved a more powerful political role

unlike most politicians who are stupid and greedy

[TJTele52]

These stupid Republicans and their obsession with deregulation has created this mess..Conservatism is a complete fraud and it always has been.. Where's Phil Gramm now, why isn't he contributing his great expertise..? Keep voting Republican folks..! Maybe they can bring down all of Western Civilization..!

[Skaldness]

Try its both parties, they BOTH get huge donations from these corps for business as usual.

[tadsgirl]

The Dems overregulation caused it. Forcing banks to make loans, by LAW to people who couldn't afford them and telling them that Freddie and Fannie would carry them.

Do some reseach, my friend.

[nthfinity]

way to go McCotter!! Hopefully Rogers is as emphatic as you!

[joneselius]

Well yes in America and Britain that sounds like a GOOD plan, eh. After all we can ALL moan about it and pretend we are making a difference :)

After all I don't want to look silly by standing up and shouting out MY FUCKING RIGHTS. Which are being taken from me one by one until all's I have is my little boxy house which no longer belongs to me because I CAN'T AFFORD IT!

Wake up, Money = DEBT, it really is that simple. Money = BIG FU****** TROUBLE. We are advanced enough to DO AWAY with money

[joneselius]

I am sitting here wondering when someone will simplify this for the masses. Let me do it for you, eh ^.^

Basically you all funded an illegal organisation who slowly, but surely wormed thier way into your economy (self profiteering worms who want nothing else but PURE CONTROL). And now that they have fucked up and given more money expecting to get big ol profits in return, it didn't happen as the house prices crashed as did loans. NOW they are trying to get YOU to pay THEM for THEIR failures.

[Signzit]

Do you think they can write a proposal, with-out the Protectionist clauses like, "Our WORD is final or Without Review" that provide shelter for even more criminality, as they choose winners & losers? Do you think there will be language baring FBI/SEC. investigations, courts of code or any Sunshine looking into the matter?

Now they close ranks to protect their Masters, as McBoma merge together to form Bush 3.0 Are Americans so blinded by Party Politics they don't see this joint ass rape?

[MartyBarret]

This guy is the one who needs to be the president.

[henry770]

Deregulation only causes problems when it isn't done completely. Government intervention in the economy is what causes garbage like this. We need a truly free market, which actually means complete deregulation.

[kiro30]

You know another good way to hundred of billions of dollars back into our economy? Bring all the troops home. Yes, bring them back from all 700+ bases around the world. We are a Republic, not an empire, or the police of the world. McCain uses the slogan, "country first," but do they really mean that? NO. Obama says, "real change," but does he really mean it? No. We will fall just like the Roman empire if we are not careful. We need real leaders like Ron Paul and Chuck Baldwin. the constitution!

[ninalee77]

Thank you. I'm not a Republican, but it's moments like this I feel we have some hope.

Don't let the Executive Branch push it's fear tactics, the bailout is BAD. It's either the banks or our dollar people, we can't save both! And if anyone thinks that there is a quick and easy fix to all of this, time to face reality, because there isn't.

[ancestralyuba]

Wow!

[1BuckeyeNation]

Good speech! I look forward to it getting backed up or folks are going to be coming home from their cushy Government jobs.

Call,write,email and, visit your Congressmen and Senators and let them know your feelings on this issue.

Study the laws that allowed this to happen(Gramm-Leech-Bliley act) and the laws that were repealed (Glass Stegall act) that put us into the mess we're in now.

Show these people we're not ignorant and that we know our history and refuse to repeat it.

NO BAILOUT!

[ProspectorSam]

Bravo!!! That's right, McCotter, the market didn't fail -- the anti-market forces (such as Herr Bush) are trying to blame the market for the fallout from their own follies.

BTW, if anybody still wants to blame the market, just remember: the market = *you*. Remember that every time you hear some twit in a nice suit tell you not to trust "the free market". Think about it.

[OmniNorth]

It is important to act very soon on the current financial crisis. Why not institute the insurance plan advocated by House Republicans, along with buying some significant percentage of bad assets as advocated by the Paulson Plan (with a formal bipartisan congressional oversight panel)?

Bundle those two things together, along with a taxpayer stake in the profits of the companies whose bad assets are bought and an end to oversized compensation packages for CEO's of those companies, and its a deal.

[1BuckeyeNation]

Stop trying to create panic. There is no need to bow to Wall St and White House demands. Reforms must be put in place before any other options can even be considered. There is plenty of money to buy these loans as Warren Buffet has already proved. We allowed the BAILOUT of Fannie and Freddie almost overnight and we are no better off for it. If we keep this up no American will be able to buy food or gas without a wheel barrel full of worthless dollars. Let the free market work.

[OmniNorth]

What degree of cataclysmic economic implosion due you feel that millions of Americans should endure en route to the end of the inestimably slow, sputtering, financially devastating process that you advocate?

[1BuckeyeNation]

You crack me up with the "cataclysmic economic implosion".

So if we don't buy these bad loans banks will fail right? Then when those banks fail other banks will want to move in to those markets to reap the enormous potential profits. It's called the free market and we should let it work the way it is supposed to and not bailout those that made poor decisions because if we do they will be more likely to do it again in the future. So yeah I advocate a FREE market and not a SOCIALISTIC market.

[1BuckeyeNation]

With regulation of course. Because deregulation is what caused this problem.

[da324]

The proposals are only a crutch. It won't work! The market will correct itself. The Feds are just creating more debt that will slow the inevitable. The market correcting itself would be short and swift, proably about a year. Did we not learn anything from history? The same thing happened during the Great Depression. The Feds propped it up for about a decade and it didn't work. The market corrected itself in a year. Lets see 1 yr, or, 10? The Feds are crooks who can not to be trusted

[milliradian]

vote records on such matters make easy lists of opposition

[Signzit]

I wonder could we call McCotter's office get some info... find out who is the most pain in his side and hammer them with phones & faxes.

Of course with many of these Shills he only squeaks until they feed his district along with some others, then it gets all quite again.

So then McBoma comes together in bipartisanship with Bush? My ass! Pull the other one.

They are closing ranks to hide from a rope! Dodd isn't fooling anyone, IMO

[travelinguy06]

Please CONGRESS...

NO WALL STREET BAIL OUT!

[clorenger]

I am not a Republican at this time, but I am really proud of this guy!!

[rodneykingstrikesbck]

These fucks were pulling the same political posturing during the FISA fiasco and they all ended up caving to Bushys whimsy. I am sure this will be no different.

These pig fuckers all have millions if not hundreds of millions tied up in Wall Street that they are not willing to lose. Who do they think they are fooling?

[dabigez357]

a large number of "sovereign" americans sadly! most of which haven't a clue we are getting raped once again! funny we "sovereign americans" have the power to abolish goverment, and yet people think that there is nothing "we" can do, OH WELL! well when "we" can't afford to live anymore, fuckin football and reality tv aswell as all things without any real fuckin' value to the human race! won't mean a thing, then the masses will finally rise up and smash these PIG FUCKERs and the like! peace/love

[1776freedomfighter]

If the republicans stop this bailout, I may just vote republican this year (never have). I wish this was my congressman.

Please call congress today. The toll free phone numbers are on my channel page, left hand side.

Paulson and Bernanke should be fired. Pelosi should stop kissing up to Bush. She makes me sick. Bush should be impeached. Enough is enough already. Wake up people - this is financial terrorism!!!!!!!!

[mpbroadcast]

He makes me proud to be a Republican. Finally they are getting their balls back.

[ninnarae]

Wow- GREAT speech!  Keep writing and calling your senators and representatives!

[gigglebox189]

Hold stong and dont give in. Its about time.

[MyPasswordIsAlpha]

Well said. It's about time Republicans stood up to Bush like this. Bush has been bad for true conservatives now for 8 years.

[1helluvaguy]

He never was a "true conservative".

[ScrogginHausen]

Looks like the GOP got it's balls back. This is awesome!

Go Maverick/Barracuda!

[GLRII]

Amen brother. I wish he was my congressman!

[leelaural]

Finally....Republicans acting like Republicans!......finally...so­me sense of fiscal responsibility.....

I love it!

No to Wall Street bailouts...

[avzett]

Looks like some of the rats are abandoning ship.

Can the Congress Critters redeem themselves?

[c4mouse]
