Barney Frank told his constituents yesterday "Talking to you is like

Hopefully he gets his wish in the next election along with the rest of
the hypocrites and thieves...
"On what planet do you spend most of your time" was another of his nice
ways of addressing questions. Oh, then he suggested if we didn't go to
Iraq, we would have "enough money to pay for health care". As if he and
the rest of the idiots in congress wouldn't have spent it all on
something else. I would rather spend money killing folks who want to
kill us than hand work free money to unions in return for an election or
two..

we've already handed a trillion dollars to america's wealthiest
corporate entities. why do you have a double standard regarding
unions?
Bailing out the financial institution is a constitutional responsibility
of the US congress.

One of the first things the new government of the US did was establish
banks to control and regulate currency. One of the first large
political debates in the US was over the establishment and regulation
the US banks.

So if the congress did not bailout the banks they would not have been
fulfilling their constitutional responsibilities. ( I am still not sure
that biden realizes that by the Constitution he is the head of the US
Senate. I also understand that this administration and congress do not
fully understand what they are suppose to be doing in Washington.)
