  • I often wonder if these goverment officials ever think that the reason there in office are becuase the American people voted for them to do the the right thing for the American person(s). thus, the amercian people continues to be misled, and are serviced under false pretense. And the "kicker" is that most of the American people are allowing this to happen. This is an example of socialistic suppression by an unholy alliance between goverment and corporatism...

  • In fact, they passed it in complete defiance to what most voters asked them not to do.

    They are parasites living large off the rest us. They all belong to expensive country clubs and health spas in Washington. They eat prime steak and two pound lobsters, whenever they feel like it. While, we the taxpayers pick up the tab for their food & drinks, tips, golf-games, massages and limo service to and from the clubs and spas! And, average taxpayer can bearly afford food and gasoline!

  • They general regard the people as very feeble and simpleminded.

  • This video's only had 534 views & 15 comments. Granted, this isn't Congress it's YouTube but the lack of attention and commentary here is (to me) reflective of the apathy of the People. This "bill" will be paid by the people but it's not FOR the people -- it's for the Wall Street parasites and "we the people" will be PAYING for it for a long, long time. This here, folks, is the Bush Legacy. Vote McCain if you want to "bail out the bailout" further down the line.

  • they passed this without approval of the American people

  • damn i wonder what percentage of americans wanted this passed

  • Nancy Pelosi, Barney Frank, and Chris Dodd should resign

  • That AP reporter is a cutie!!! WOOF!

  • What difference does it make? They are just going to piss the $700 billion on the Iraq war. Maybe now there will be an incentive to get out of Iraq war-Bush played CRAPS and lost for Iraq oil. Remember the United Nations said there were no weapons of mass destruction so they would not help fund the war. Bush went ahead. Drooling oil out of his lips.

  • OLIGARCHY!!!!
