Unfortunately, McCain has already endorsed a massive bailout for the irresponsible. He endorsed the $30 billion dollar bail out of BSC and the $200 billion bail out of the big investment banks. No matter which candidate you vote for, you’re going to be bailing out some group of speculators.
Do you want to bail out guys like the CEO of BSC, who sold all his shares yesterday for $61 million dollars when they should have been worth zero? Or do you want to bail out homeowners who bet on prices going up forever? Pick your charity.

March 28, 2008 at 10:39 AM #177603DukehornParticipantSome of the revisionist history here is truly amazing. I guess you have long term memory amnesia and just store up what FoxNews says the last few weeks.
Certain people must have just blocked out all the interviews given by Cheney in 2003.
“We will be welcomed as liberators.”
“We will not be in Iraq for any significant period of time.”
“Iraq has WMDs.”Some of you forgot that Rumself vetoed the commanders that said that post-War Iraq would require more troops than the administration was going to send.
Did you forget that the “Surge” happened in 2007? 4 years after the recommendation made by our military, which was initially vetoed by this administration.
If there are malcontents, it’s because they’re astonished in how things have gone to @#$@ since 2001 when we (a) had a good economy and (b) had allies all over the world.
For a bunch of guys that never served in combat, they’ve done a pretty good job of getting our military bogged down and of not listening to guys who have served.
All that being said, I’m not willing to withdraw from Iraq at this juncture due to my foreign policy beliefs (I’m a pragmatic militarist) so there is a chance that I will support McCain. But to pretend that Bush and Cheney need to get plaudits for the sad state of our country is amazing.

March 28, 2008 at 3:04 PM #177743AnonymousGuestI think that I’m probably a cross between a Dem and a Republican. I do NOT support bailouts in any form or fashion. However, I want a democratic president in the white house becuause unlike Republicans, they care for the common, working-class man. The Republicans only care for big businesses, high-earners and those that are wealthy. Screw the people who need help like those who are mentally ill. As long as they are keeping money in the pockets of those who are enjoying wealth, the lady who is dillusional and can’t help herself can rot on the street. Morally, I have a problem with that and so do a lot of people like me.
We need a national healthcare system. Other countries have them, obviously it can be done. Repubs would rather spend billions fighting wars we have no business fighting than to take care of American citizens. That’s where our responsibility lies.
What bugs me is Bush signed off on bailouts which is something I understand a Repub president should never do. But, we all know what an idiot he is, so that’s not surprising.
Thank God I didn’t vote for him.
