Add two more names to the list of politicians we can blame for this bailout mess:  Senator Paul Sarbanes and Senator Mike Oxley.  Why?  Because these two "geniuses" gave us, in the aftermath of Enron, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.

If Congressman Roscoe Bartlett (R-MD 6) votes for the giveaway bailout bill, I may decide to run for Congress in 2010.

Did he just say "rule our country"?  Are we a monarchy?

His argument on spending seemingly comes back to "I fought it and we sent people to prison".  Great.  John McCain for Attorney General.  How about some more specfics -- specific programs in entitlements.  Specific programs in the Department of Education. Or Commerce. Or Energy.

McCain needs to get specific.

Barack Obama claims the Healthcare System is broken.

Perhaps because your wife -- who is a glorified PR hack at the University of Chicago Hospitals makes $321,000 per annum -- is grossly overpaid, when she is not directly part of the patient care continuum?

Hmm.  Also, the United States provides the best medical care in the world.  If not, then the Saudi Royal Family wouldn't own an entire floor at the Cleveland Clinic.  Thousands of Canadians wouldn't come across the border to pay cash for care they cannot even purchase in Canada.

The problem in America with healthcare is not delivery; it is how we pay for it.

McCain keeps missing opportunities here.

Obama is talking about how the policies of the last eight years shredded regulations.

Yeah.  So why did he block reform efforts all this time?  Why is Franklin Raines -- guilty of massive fraud of Fannie Mae -- an advisor of his.  Why is he allowing Barney Frank and Chris Dodd to be the front for this deal?  Why isn't he decrying the attempt to give $140 billion to the corrupt organization ACORN -- which he once represented as an attorney?

Hank Paulson is desperate.  Since the Republicans in Congress have decided that it is better to do the right thing rather than anything, Hank Paulson was reportedly compelled to drop down to one knee before Nancy Pelosi to beg for her help in pushing the Bailout Bullshit through Congress.  Bill Medley must be shaking his head.

Fat Jack Murtha, D-Johnstown, PA  is getting sued.  The Congressman -- a Marine turned ratfucking bastard and unindicted co-conspirator in ABSCAM -- is being sued by one of the "Haditha" Marines he accused of "cold blooded murder".  Without evidence, without trial, without jury, Fat Jack Murtha abandoned his fellow Marines, and turned his back on Semper Fidelis. What is latin for "Always a Cocksucker"?

More here.

By the way, let us also not forget that Fat Jack is one of the fattest cats in the earmark game, going so far to hold an annual "party" to fund his campaign war chest in Crystal City for Defense Contractors.

That's clean government you can believe in!
