If you follow the timeline back, it was in large part on the instigation of entities like this nefarious group that pressure was applied to banks to approve the loans to those with no stable non-governmental income. I for one do not care if my Congressman and Senators are Rep. or Dem, if they vote for a bill with proceeds of repayment to go into the coffers of these anti-American groups, I will actively campaign for their defeat in their next election cycle. There is too much at stake beyond our hard earned tax dollars for them to give outright support for organizations that would like nothing better than to undermine further our Constitution. Write your Representative and Senator, make your determination known. I am sending a copy of this post to all of the Reps and Sens, all of those on my email list, if we get the chain going, they cannot help but to hear and fear. It is time for them to represent US again.

Want to crash the US economy? Demand that U.S government pay now. I suspect that is the dirty little secret and why it is so important to get this done now.

The democrats are always trying to figure a way to get more money for their leftist corrupt causes. Maybe they wanted more community organizers. Thankfully, the republicans derailed it, and will continue to do so. I wish Bush would say something. Other than the war on terror, his leadership was been so weak. He lets the left walk all over him and he contimues to kiss their ass. Acorn??

People should not be bankrupted by illness. And some people deserve to be able to renegotiate their mortgages with the losses going to those responsible where ever possible. Credit card companies should not be able to change the terms of business. If they agree to give a person a line of credit, the credit company is supposed to judge the risk. To let them jack up interests rates after the fact is criminal. That’s the kind of help I believe in, too, Uppity. People should not be bankrupted by illness.

They could use taxes to help develop it, and the profits they receive would be tax free. It used to be there was a one-time exception to help people retire. You could use your principle place of residence as part of your retirement, and sell it tax free. Then it was changed to make real estate gains tax free, which helped set off the bubble. Wouldn't it make sense to at least tax investment property at the capital gains rate? If Washington was interested in helping poor people they could cut out the middle men. For instance, when was the last time you heard a politco talk about cutting employment taxes? Wouldn't that provide an incentive to stimulate the real economy? They always act like THAT would be irresponsible... as if this bailout regime was normal capitalism.

But I don't think we should use the word "profits" in this. They're trying to make it sound like we're being asked to make an investment. There won't be "profits." There will be some recovery of money risked that makes the losses smaller. Remember, the RTC cost the taxpayers $132B, and that was real money in 1995. This puppy is going to cost us dearly, so the idea of earmarking "profits" to ACORN is round-the-bend crackers. Hear, hear! But I don’t think we should use the word “profits” in this.

I, too, am pained to hear the Republican slant that they are blameless in this. Far from it. I will support McCain as the best anti-corruption candidate at this point, but there is no way I'll forget the Reagan Revolution's role in the corporate takeover of democracy. The dem's fault is that they only fought for a piece of the action instead of democratic principle. Yes, we homeless dems are in a sad circumstance.
