Who’s bailing out? Well, conservative columnist Kathleen Parker thinks Sarah Palin should. And just in case she’s not entirely clear about her thoughts on Sarah, she wrote “If BS were currency, Palin could bail out Wall Street herself”. Either way, Palin will be ok. The rich will be just fine…they can bail themselves out!
But where’s my bailout? Seriously! AIG gets $85 billion, the rest of the market gets $700 billion and I have to pay for it? Fuck that! I didn’t vote to give Bush more executive power, nor did I tell him it was ok to suspend habeus corpus. I didn’t ask for a check from China or to start a war that costs over $500 billion.
If you’re using my tax dollars for this shit, I should get to vote on it before your stupid ass decides I should pay for your mistakes.
This week we heard that everything should be put on hold in order to take care of the crisis in Washington. It’s like when you’re a little kid and an important decision has to be made, your parents go into a room and close the door so you don’t know what they’re saying. Only after they’ve decided who you’re going to live with until you’re 18, do they tell you they’re getting a divorce. It affects your life more than it does theirs, but you have no say. None. No matter how fucked up the decision they have made will make your future.
I want to hear debates. Open that goddamned door and let us eavesdrop on what you’re going to do with OUR lives. And now, we have heard the debates…
According to this website.
Wait, what? Haven’t we seen something like this before?
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid spoke of McCain’s time in Washington working on the bailout this way: “All he has done is stand in front of the cameras, we still don’t know where he stands on the issue.” Wow, sounds like a guy who’s too busy to debate to me!
You have to proclaim victory anywhere you can when your poll numbers are on a constant downslide, right? Especially when the reason you “suspend” your campaign and your participation in the debate in the first place is to be in a place where you apparently “just stand there”.
But now, we know that McCain is going to go ahead with tonight’s debate. We have yet to hear whether he’s unsuspending the suspension of Palin’s participation in the VP debates, but I’m sure we’ll find out soon. I don’t understand how he can go to the debates since he promised not to leave Washington until a decision was reached about the economy. There’s no decision, but he’s still leaving. Whatever happened to sticking to your guns, John??? But I’m willing to overlook that to hear some answers, some ideas, and to have someone involve me on decisions that affect MY life.
Everyone judges the decision that McCain made in suspending his campaign. Mike Huckabee said McCain made a huge mistake. “You can’t just say, ‘World stop for a moment. I’m going to cancel everything,” Huckabee told the Associated Press.
But this is just him being a MAVERICK! It’s what we all want – BUCK THE SYSTEM!
And as long as no one blinks, we’re ok. The one thing you CAN NOT do is blink!
That’s RIGHT!
Unfortunately, Republican consultant Craig Shirley, believes “(McCain) will been seen as blinking first, since it was he who said he wasn’t going until the crisis is averted. Hobson’s choice, painted in a corner, bollixed — pick your poison, or pick your cliche.”
I happen to think we already picked our poison. He was elected 8 years ago and he’s been destroying our country ever since.
The question is, can anyone fix what has been fucked up so badly? Well, not if you just stand around waiting for cameras to film you and certainly not if you blink.
