[QUOTE="wkmac, post: 404600, member: 2189"] Heard a democrat Congressman on C-Span this morning verify the same thing basically that is reported at the link below. [URL="http://www.lewrockwell.com/blog/lewrw/archives/023114.html"][COLOR=red][B]http://www.lewrockwell.com/blog/lewrw/archives/023114.html[/B][/COLOR][/URL] As I wait in gaslines to get gas, (it's pretty bad here folks) talking with people it's almost unnanimous that people oppose the bailout but what strikes me a surprising is no one is willing to trust the gov't at all or what they are being told. I honestly don't say this to start something but rather as a point that I was frankly shocked in that several folks even went so far as to say they are life long republicans ( I live in a solid republican district that sent both Gingrich and Barr to Congress) and would never vote democrat but they believe Bush can't be trusted in what he sez. They went on to say they now know the Bush adminstration painted an untrue picture on the Middle East condition so why should he be trusted now. For you party diehards, these folks are still solidly committed to McCain and they see him as a maverick who will save them but Bush has no standing with these people. I didn't try to change their minds on McCain because you can't cure stupid! Just kidding! I really wanted to hear what they had to say so I just agreed and went along. Watching this Wall Street deal and having to deal with not enough gas to the point you have wait an hour to get some just has people right now not trusting gov't to get anything right. I think what scares Washington more than anything else, the Schumer gulp factor, is if this thing runs along till election day, we might see the most massive turnout of incumbents this country has ever seen and you know what, some economic pain might be worth ever bit of it too! You might see a larger uptick in 3rd party votes as I've also heard a lot of that expressed in the last couple of weeks and you know I got my diggs in on that! :rofl: Seriously, our gov't has failed us and we all need to keep this in mind on election day. Stupidity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a better outcome!
