Send an email to him. He said, when he first installed the captcha system that he’d be able to address stuff quicker if you email him.

Did it bounce even after you entered the captcha codes?

So? What’s your take on this? An article in Huffington Post about the toothlessness of the present bill and not a GOPer in the bunch.[/quote]

Thanks for posting that link, Allan. Their 8 points are very good.
The first one should satisfy the GOP stated objections. The 4th one sounds like the Lincoln proposal I mentioned the other day. (transparency for derivatives by having them traded in public exchanges.)

(I know I’m not Brian… not trying to be Brian. I just thought the link added interesting fodder to the discussion.)

Interesting, FLU… before today I didn’t even know about quote.yahoo.com… I always did finance.yahoo.com (as well as finance.google.com ) Probably because the portfolio/stock watch in my.yahoo.com takes you to the finance.yahoo.com site.

Speaking of yahoo’s earnings reports – it looks like they beat analyst’s expectations.

If the Dems exist as the “party of the people” and are there to curb the worst excesses of the Republicans (and I don’t disagree with this, either, by the way) and the Dems control both Congress and the presidency, why aren’t the Dems going full bore after substantive and enforceable regulation?
[/quote]
As a progressive/Dem… I have to say I’m very disappointed in the Dems. I expect bad behavior from the GOP. When Obama appointed Geithner and named Summers as his go to guy I knew it was more of the same under a different political label.

I’ve come to the conclusion that only politicians who are at odds with their parties will introduce decent stuff… Blanche Lincoln most recently on financial reform – but Ron Paul and Dennis Kucinich don’t have problems thumbing their noses at politics as usual. Maybe we need more dis-enfranchised, alienated, elected officials. Ones that are willing to challenge convention because they’re already on the outs with the insiders.
