SENATORS AGAINST THE BAILOUT: David Vitter (R-LA)

October 1, 2008, U.S. Senate. A vote is taken on the infamous bailout bill (H.R. 1424), "a bill to provide authority for the Federal Government to purchase and insure certain types of troubled assets for the purposes of providing stability to and preventing disruption in the economy and financial system",

...and to steal from American citizens.

Well spoken, Louisiana has made the right choice, but why didn't you guys oust Landrieu this year.

[Ramenking1]

but it passed...so ... that sucks.

[nativeveteran70]

God bless you Senator Vitter - you are a true leader (including Sen. from WA, SC and VT). Thanks for looking out for the Americans, we will look out for you to the end. We need to stop these central bankers who are trying to take over our country.

[Sideshowbobx]

same that they past this robbery - hopefully are these criminals replaced soon by true representatives.
