We Surrender! “Bailout” plan is now law…

Well, now we know. Nothing makes a Democrat smile like the intoxicating combination of pork and power. The House of Representatives passed an amended version of the bailout bill on Friday — a bill that is now over 450 pages…

The bill passes, President Bush signs it and the Dow Jones industrials are ending down 157 points at the 10,325 level after being up more than 300 while the House vote was under way.

Why? Would any of us put money into a savings account know the bank doesn’t have to pay it back at full value if at all? God Help America, Please?

The similarities of our current crop of dregs representing us and our Founding Fathers are slim to none.I don’t see how you could think that I even came close to equating the two

I didn’t.

Do you mean a Constitutional Convention?
That is always a possibility, but we wind up with something really bad. These people in DC are no Founding Fathers by a long shot, and they could very well be delegates to a new convention. If we can’t control them now, we certainly couldn’t control them then. The current crop of congressman may have an IQ in the 3 digits but the majority are not wise.

The similarities of our current crop of dregs representing us and our Founding Fathers are slim to none.I don’t see how you could think that I even came close to equating the two.Why can’t we clean house and get rid of K street and all the lobbyists? The instructions are all in our constitution,which seems to be perverted from its true meaning more and more.

If we are unhappy with our Senators and US Representatives, then we need to get involved in finding a person in our districts who shares our conservative values, help and support their campaigns. That’s where we are the most powerful–in our own districts. Once a rep or senator gets to DC, we have less and less power.

On a local basis I agree with you wholeheartedly as the pol has to answer to his constituents.He/She knows that they know where his office is,see him at the store etc. and there will always be immediate consequences for his actions How many “conservative” pols have you seen go to DC and morph into a “Beltway Boy” beholden to the lobbyists and the good graces of his fellow “Club Members” Why can’t we hold their feet to the fire once they get to Washington? As a nation we should all vote for term limits as with all the wisdom that our Founding Fathers had they couldn’t have ever imagined in their wildest dreams that somebody would have the desire to become a career politician.
