How they voted on bailout plan

Thank God somebody has the courage to stand up and say NO!
All I ask from my lawmakers is leadership. Anybody can take the easy way out when they're spending somebody else's money. This will be hard, but we have been through too much to just hand our money over to lending institutions without oversight, promise of return, or any hope of receiving some sort of benefit.

exactly....maybe there is hope...

I guess you haven't been watching TV. The defeat of this bill today means you're all going to loose your jobs tomorrow.

Well now, we can watch the World Series and have us a turkey come November. Next Pres is #44 and 4 is an Oriental unlucky number.

Never in my wildest memory would I ever have considered that I would be on the same side as Republicans. I'm far left Liberal and don't see anything positive about this rescue for reaganism.

I'm switching from being a lifelong Democrat to an Independent.

Smart move becoming an independant. It's really a one party system anyway. They bicker among themselves to give the illusion that we have choice, we don't.

Both of these criminal parties have us almost 10 Trillion dollars in debt.

I will never vote for another person from either party, unless it is Ron Paul or Dennis Kucinich.

These two parties are killing OUR country, and are enslaving the American people.
