Off Topic Clip of Peloski’s speech that cratered deal. She should resign.

Here is what I would say to President Bush if I were Nancy Pelosi:

Mr President, you have 199 Republican members of Congress. Your Administration wants this bill. In the spirit of bi-partisan support, we, Democrats, are willing to join you in doing what is best for the country.

However, the Republican leadership needs to bring Republican legislators fully on board this program. We will provide the marginal votes to pass your bill.

You have our commitment of support. We need your commitment for at least 180 votes on the Republican side.

*

If Democrats were smart, they would let the Republican take ownership of this bill. And pay the political price in November.

Homeowner who are making their mortgage payments on time should be outraged by this bill. Others have gambled, cashed out, are are now long gone. And now, hard-working, play-by-the rules Americans have to bail-out Wall Street?

The bailout simply doesn’t make sense to the average American.

I just watched the Pelosi video of her speech on the floor of the house.

I think it is a great speech, a heroic and honest speech. Hooray for Pelosi!

Her speech is to blame for the failed vote? What a ridiculous idea that is.

The republicans don’t have the courage to vote yes, so they spin it, and try to place the blame for the failed vote upon Pelosi’s speech. Cheap political trickery.

Why would the republic need to vote yes on something that fundamentally, the democrat wanted? Tell the 40% democrat who voted against it that they don’t have the courage. I applauded all the rep who actually voted NO. They all have great courage to stand up and say no.

I think Bush and Paulson blew this from the very beginning. Their initial bill basically said:

“Give us $700 Billion dollars. We’ll spend it however we like without any oversight. And you can never hold us accountable.”

That bill screamed BAILOUT FOR WALL STREET. Even with all the negotiated changes, the bill still can’t shake that initial public image. At this point, you could come up with a bill that even Warren Buffett would want to invest money in and the public would still see it as nothing more than a bailout for wall street.

If the bill was initially written and marketed as a good investment for America, we would have all been better off. But, of course, that wasn’t Bush and Paulson’s primary concern.
