		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;I never said it was JUST Republicans that oppose the health care bill, but lets be honest…the ones that care enough to spend a lovely weekend flying to DC to protest it probably are.&lt;/blockquote&gt;I would dispute this.

I&#039;ve met plenty of intelligent Democrats in my life.

Why exactly they vote for a-holes like Obama I still haven&#039;t figured out, but that&#039;s another story.

It&#039;s not hard at all to see the foolishness in what Obama and the Donks are trying to do.  America is right to stand in their way.

		<description>What lessons have we learned from history?  

If Chauncey were president in 1941 we wouldn&#039;t have declared war on the Japanese.  Instead, we would have moved all of our remaining ships - including the ones in the Atlantic - to Pearl Harbor.  We would have then declared April 1, 1942 as &quot;community service day&quot; and had our military painting murals at Community Organizer locations all over Hawaii.

If Chauncey were president in 2009 he&#039;d start printing money, then flush huge quantities of bonds into the open market, increasing our deficit by approximately 800% in one year.  Once that was started, he&#039;d start a trade war with our largest creditor, China.

What&#039;s that?  Gadzooks! 

Never mind...  go back to your soup.  You don&#039;t want to know.</description>

		<description>Repeat after me: enact the reforms first and only produce bailout money in conjunction with policing the crooks. The relationships between Wall Street, banking and the government is on the level of incest. Arrrgh!</description>

		<description>Obama&#039;s solution boils down to this: banks are no longer too big to fail even though they are bigger than before the Lehman failure. The new rules he is proposing will create a resolution trust facility to isolate any business segments that may get in trouble inf the future (think wasted $$tax money$$ again). Meanwhile the new big banks will be regulated much more closely (wink,wink).

A simple statement declaring that the major provisions of Glass-Steagall (to once again keep investment banks separate from commercial banks separate from insurance companies) will be re-instated and that the Sherman Ant-Trust Act would be enforced would have sent the right signal to investors. Now the problem is worse than ever. 

Conclusion? The biggest rottenest bankers win again.</description>

How many times do you have to be told that it&#039;s not just Republicans who are concerned about the on-going power grabs by President Obama and his cronies? At least you don&#039;t accuse us of racism in opposing President Obama&#039;s policies like most of the other leftists.

		<description>Our small town start-up bank had TARP $$$ forced upon them (to hear its president tell it.) A small state bank where a daughter lives - 600 miles away - also was targeted and accepted TARP $$$.  The stockholders are losing  money and clout to the government.  This problem is not limited to big banks.  They were just the tip of the iceberg.</description>

		<description>ChicagoRobb,

It&#039;s a great point, but there is an intrinsic issue here: Republicans are *rarely* anti-trust.  Only TR busted trusts.  Republicans are famous for being in bed with big business, and rightly so.

Demoncrats, otoh, are famous for being in bed with big business AND big labor, then lying about it - even while they try to take it all over.

See the problems here?</description>
