		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;The next FOUR YEARS are all about Jeri Ryan, and how her divorce with her crazy husband, Jack Ryan, helped him lose in Obama’s first election victory as U.S. Senator in 2004.

I blame Jeri for not accepting her husband’s outrageous demands involving certain “social” clubs.
&lt;/blockquote&gt;

thats right!!  what do you marry a beautiful hollywood babe for after all??? 

she should have been in commercials for him, wearing victoria&#039;s secret (or better yet something from frederic&#039;s)  saying if you elect my husband, you&#039;ll be seeing a LOT more of me in the coming years...

he&#039;s have won in a landslide!</description>

Step away from the crack pipe!!! That was the most nonsensical conjecture I have witnessed on this board in a while. Show me proof of your claims. I will save you the trouble. There is none. I gurantee you I could walk on any car lot today and be financed in 30 minutes. There is plenty of loan $ for those with good credit. What they want gov&#039;t $ for is to loan to those with marginal to poor credit in order in to maintain the unsustainable sales numbers witnessed over the last decade (one which encourages people to trade in every 3 years). I just bought a new tractor using John Deere credit. Why are they able to provide credit for a specialty product but auto companins can&#039;t? Becasue there is no shortage of credit for those of us who have been prudent, not over extended our means, and paid our bills. Giving creidt to someone with marginal/bad cridt history now only prolongs the predictable fall out. Of course the gov&#039;t only cares about propping up this system long enough to get re-elected. No long term considerations given.</description>

		<description>People have a right to a car!
How will they get to the Messiah&#039;s inauguration without one?
How will they get to the welfare office without a car? Filled with GWB bailout gas and The One&#039;s neverending promise of change to the greatest country in the world.

Damn. Just Damn.</description>

		<description>I have noticed on other blogs people on the pro-bailout side getting super emotional about this issue. People who were once rational now rant like New York Times editorialists about how people who don&#039;t agree with the bailout hate the workers, love Wall Street fat cats, and want to destroy America. 

It&#039;s like amnesty debate all over again.</description>

		<description>GMAC isn&#039;t the only one.  The wife and I looked at both Toyota and Honda&#039;s yesterday and were greeted with the typical hard-sell of &quot;1.9% loans!&quot;  

They had no idea who we are or what kind of credit risk we are, but the first words out of their mouth were all about low-low-low rates on car loans.  Even after we told them that we were only looking, and would be paying cash if/when the time came to buy, they still couldn&#039;t stop mentioning their 1.9% loans.

This isn&#039;t a GMAC problem; it&#039;s an American problem.  Everyone who sells anything to consumers has become so addicted to cheap-money, they know nothing else.  It&#039;s their only mode of operation.

I&#039;ve been thinking to myself &quot;why does this have to be such a hard recession?  Why can&#039;t we simply stop borrowing for awhile and live within our ample (as a nation) means?&quot;  That would still leave a bruise, but it wouldn&#039;t be a disaster.

Now I know why: because a large percentage of the USA - including very well compensated people who shouldn&#039;t have to borrow - know nothing else.  Unless they are basically punished into learning to live within their means, they never will.

That&#039;s ugly news, gang.</description>

		<description>Does anybody realize that the head of GMAC is J. Ezra Merkin, who steered investors into the welcoming clutches of Bernard Madoff? Why isn&#039;t this connection being investigated before the Treasury Department confers bank status on this company? Indeed, why is the media silent on this?</description>

Persoonally, I blame Jack for acting like a Dem president.  Public figures should know better.

I wouldn&#039;t dream of &quot;sharing&quot; my wife with anyone.
If I were married to Jeri Ryan, I sure wouldn&#039;t share.</description>
