It is you fellows that are being political and pointing fingers at one party.
What you fail to realize is that I do not trust any of the political whores in congress. I certainly have my problems with G. Bush as well as Presidents before and the one now in office.
Liberals tend to not question what their congressmen do or their legislation intent. They walk in lock step. The only exception is when they think their political support is falling in their districts. Same with the conservatives except they are more likely to question their own party. Ala Maverick John McCain.
I have not seen any mavericks in the liberal wing.
As a businessman and capitalist, I do not trust the stupidity in congress. Neither party.
I am surprised at intelligent men as you fellows appear to be, that you do not study the small print and possible ramifications of legislation being passed by these congressmen. They are not thinking of the country....they are protecting their own selves and political power.
Please read more of the bill and you might find a few surprises in there. Then again, you may not really care.

MD I agree with MOST OF THIS quote but what you fail to see is that when W. Bush got in the seat he pushed 911 into about each one of his spending bills. Dick kept us all scared to death

and the citizens got on there reps to make sure you keep us safe I did not care what it cost.
Now your strongest point was that all of there reps seem to care more about themselves than us

except for (Biden, Hutchinson, McCain, Obama, Webb, Shelby, and Boxer IMHO)
Now our system is flawed no doubt but to have an attitude about the economic meltdown we are in, when no one has a clue how to get out of is criminal
Tim G. was the best I saw this week outside the Prez. He was honest. He said in so many words " look I do not know whats going to work
That was our system at its best
