    I find it very interesting that one of the big reasons we are in this mess to begin with is the use of credit (borrowing by both government and people). Now we are going to "borrow" 810 billion dollars-Why?-to free up credit so that we can borrow more. Talk about catch 22
    Seems to me that even though it may be strong medicine we need less credit and to dry up the supply of credit instead of making more credit available.
    Or maybe we should just sell the country to the Chinese and the Arabs. we owe them so much they own us anyway.

    While this entire "crisis" has been unfolding, I've been asking myself how things ever got so bad? How can our elected officials continue to make the same boneheaded, illogical mistakes over and over again?

    Well, I think I've found the answer. It makes a lot of sense and explains a lot of the actions of the democrats and extreme left wing liberals.

    The Cloward-Piven strategy...

    I really don't know what else to say about this debacle except I really fear for the future of this country and what the future will hold for our kids.

    "And I think sausage should sue for defamation."

    That is the *BEST* line I have heard in years.
    Perfect.
