I'll respect you in the morning.

The government will make money on the bailout.

Of all of the Tom Foolery associated with the bailout, the idea that the government – the very entity that got us into this mess – is somehow going to be savvy enough to profit from their own mismanagement is insane. Prediction, the bailout will turn into a corrupt ATM for every Dem and worthless corrupt Lib organization - not only in America but in the world. The total cost of the bailout will go from 700 billion to 1.7 trillion.

I sent my representative a simple message, “If you vote for the bailout, I won’t vote for you.”

I mean it too. I won’t go so far as to vote for the socialist Dem – wait, a bit of redundancy there – I won’t vote for the Dem, but I won’t vote for the Rep who supports this nonsense either. Whooooa Lex, what about McCain? A stand, if a stand is to be made, will be in the house not the senate. Besides there’s too much at stake nationwide not to vote for McCain. I think IN’s 3rd will somehow muddle through for two years with the blue dog Dem running against the Rep.

But hey, as Lex noted last week, this is a done deal. We’re screwed. This will pass. It will result in a level of federal interference in our lives that will make the New Deal look down right conservative. Like the New Deal, government interference will prolong and make worse any problems we may be facing. Worse of all, this will become a model for future government interference.

We voted for these dofusses. We got what we deserved.
