%$#@$ idjits..... and by that, I mean us.

Democrats have a spiffy plan to make 'Wall Street' pay for the bailout.

Pertinent bit:
"If after five years ... the CBO decides that the American taxpayer has lost money in this, then there would be a fee on financial institutions," Pelosi said,

So Pelosi is saying... if her nifty plan looks like it's tanking and taxpayers are going to take it in the shorts again, her tax (fee??) will kick in, which will ultimately be paid by..... taxpayers. I'd say we were getting (bleeped) without even being kissed, but if she puckered up at me I'd have nightmares for a year.

I won't blame the scheming old shrew for being what she is..... but we as voters installed her to office, along with her cronies.

I find it amazing that the vast majority of Americans oppose the bailout, yet our so-called representatives are going to pass it anyway. Reminds me of what Lysander Spooner wrote in his essay No Treason: The Constitution of No Authority, that we can have no representative who isn't made to be held accountable by us.

The whole fiasco reminds me of that old Bloodhound Gang song:

30 seconds after it's signed will begin a dual litany:

"Through quick and decisive action we saved the economy from those greedy, unpatriotic fools on the other side of the aisle, unless the whole thing goes kablooie, then it was their idea all the time and we tried to stop them!"

It won't matter who we hear it from, or which party they belong to. It will be the same story.

Let the countdown begin....
30....
29....
28....
