I want to see Religulous.  I love Bill Maher.  If anyone sees this movie,
please write and give me a review. My anniversary is this coming week and
movies are a possibility.  Maher is a genius.  I used to watch his show all
the time.  Too funny.

I started reading it, too.  I got to page 88 or so.  Reading it online is a
pain in the butt when you connect at 26.4kbps. I had the same thought as you
Lynda...that it was awfully researched for something supposedly thrown
together.  I just got the gut feeling that this might have been a BP(Bush
Paulson) exercise written a few years ago at a Bohemian Grove meeting or
something....lol
After Don's comments, I doubt I will even try to read the Senate version.  I
don't have the time nor the inclination.  I trust you completely on this one,
Don.  The whole thing is now under my skin.
Y'all blame what you will on Bush and the GOP-they do deserve their share of
the blame, but this bill passing shit falls squarely on Democratic shoulders
as far as I am concerned.  If they were truly anti-Bush, if they were truly
for the little guy, if they honestly had their constituents at heart instead
of their rich friends, if they truly the party of CHANGE, then we would not
have a signed bailout tonight.

There's plenty of blame to go around. Do you really see a difference
between the two parties? Listening to any of them, I can't tell if they
are a tax and spend Democrat or a borrow and spend Republican. So few
have the guts to do what their constituents want. As I wrote to all my
Congress-drones, "Come election time, we will remember how you voted on
this". Vote for Ron Paul.
