Prayer. Lord Jesus, hear our prayers for this great and free country. Help us to keep our precious liberties, to hold your truth high, and to remain a beacon of freedom for the rest of your fallen world. Amen.

But I also understand that it HAS to pass, and it has to pass quickly.

This is the reality on the ground, folks.
It sucks, but there it is.

Those of you who blindly advocate overturning this bill in it’s entirety are IMO being incredibly naive, and extremely irresponsible. Those of you who think that we have all the time in the world to whittle the bill down to something that is 100 percent palatable, are just as irresponsible.

I’m already feeling the financial consequences of congressional inaction in my world, and I’m guessing that I’m not alone. I’d be willing to bet that I’ve got a lot of company here at MM…. people who are feeling upset about the irresponsible tone that this blog has been taking over the last few days who have stopped interacting here for just that reason.

John McCain is doing what must be done, folks. It’s simply irrational to use this bill to fuel your already out-of-control MDS. To not act on this bill and let the American economy go off the deep end, would be simply unforgiveable.

If you can’t understand that, then you have a very limited understanding of the American economy and what makes it tick.

Regarding McCain, the above poster is absolutely right, Michelle. I know you don’t want to hear it. Too bad.

The election is nearly upon us, and you need to stop hammering away at John McCain on every turn. It’s counterproductive, it serves no useful purpose at this juncture, and you’re doing a lot more harm than you are good.
