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.

bernie!

[mikwid]

Thank you for posting these speeches. It is good to hear the few who still understand the price "we the people" will have to pay for the mistakes and gains of those involved.

[bigdog49094]

Well unless there are enough people who can show up at their Sen or Reps office with a $100K cash in their pocket the people are not going to be listened to. Bailout is coming and that is just the beginning, there not enough honest leaders in Washington to make a difference. The rich will strip mine America.

[1mile2go]

Taking the money is bad enough but you should read whats in that new policy and its rules!Giant Corporatism. Right now Benanke is holding that $14 Trillion for the mortgage bailout unless he gets his way and gets the new deal and the $700 billion+ Its poverty or slavery. Time to persecute these frauds for what they are.

Nice to see we have some Senators with some sense. Keep fighting. We are far outnumbered but i hope the tide is finally shifting

[cosmicgrrl69]

thank u for posting this list of the Heroes of this country and for posting the list of Parasite Senators who voted for Corporattism/Socialism. We have to vote out the villians on Election day.
