		<description>&quot;In a shrewd move, Senator McCain has just proposed delaying Friday’s first presidential debate–in order to convene a meeting with Obama, President Bush and other decision-makers from both parties to sort out the financial mess.&quot;

  hahahahaha

And you folks ate it up. 

George Bush, God bless him, was right :
“You can fool some of the people all the time, and those are the ones you want to concentrate on.”</description>

		<description>Oh sure, a lot of people lie and cheat...ACORN and fraudulent votes; terrorist Ayers -- &quot;he&#039;s just a guy in my neighborhood&quot;; declaring over $10K in contributions to the Congressional Black Caucus as charitable donation in tax returns; total misrepresentation of Dr. Kissinger&#039;s words during debate; says he didn&#039;t say will sit down and negotiate without precondition; total fabrication in Obama ad about McCain being against equal pay for women; saying he was a professor when he was actually an adjunct part-time instructor, lying to Spanish-speaking audience about both Limbaugh and McCain&#039;s position on immigration, etc., etc.  Too many to mention of Obama lies, distortions, fabrications, exaggerations, manipulations, unfounded personal attacks, hypocrisy, etc., etc., etc.</description>

		<description>888:

Yes, Sarbanes-Oxley was created, but wasn&#039;t enforced.  

When the gov&#039;t is involved, if they do it right, it&#039;ll be OK, just like everything else . . . .

And, yes, people will keep on lying and cheating, even the good, faithful Christians.</description>

		<description>Deus, you&#039;re too stupid to understand that NO ONE and NOTHING can regulate greed, except one&#039;s conscience and one&#039;s belief in right and wrong.  Besides, there are several regulations already in place --   Sarbanes-Oxley, for one, which was enacted as a result of Enron -- and local and state predatory lending laws, but those didn&#039;t stop mortgage lenders from offering the &#039;pre-approved with no down payment&#039; loans.  

If the federal government started checking (what you call regulating) what homeowners, first time home buyers and mortgage lenders were doing (if there was even a way to do that), you and your MoveOn.org elitist friends would be jumping up and down about how the  government&#039;s infringing on people&#039;s privacy...that&#039;s big government getting involved in people&#039;s personal business.  

You people are amazing.</description>

Interesting!

Is that how it happened or are you making this up?

The news didn&#039;t reflect what you wrote.</description>

		<description>So much partisan misunderstanding.  Sen. Reid on Monday talked to the press asking for McCain&#039;s help in delivering the Repubs on this bill.  If McCain steps forward and endorses it, the &#039;Pubs get CYA benefit.  The Dems do, too.  They have the votes to pass whatever they want, but if they pass this without the &#039;Pubs, then they get killed in the elections for the &quot;$800B Bailout of Wall St.&quot;.  This wasn&#039;t smart of Reid, because it seems like he was expecting McCain to rubber stamp.  Shya&#039;right!  McCain.  Rubberstamp.  Jeez, but Reid is dumb!

  On Tue., the &#039;Pubs appeal to Paulson.  They only have 4 guys on board out of 100!  They need McCain&#039;s cover.  Paulson agrees to get McCain to show.  McCain has not yet seen the bailout plan, because his position in the Senate does not have him in the loop (only a few are).

  On Wed., they call McCain to please come in and help to close the deal.  After much discussion with his economic advisors, and a talk with Paulson, he suspends his campaign and goes in.  What&#039;s significant is that NO ONE DECIDED BARRY WAS NEEDED OR WANTED.  Reid specifically did not want him there, and they&#039;re of the same party!  After McCain made his unilateral announcement, then they asked for Barry, to give the Dems cover (or the election would be OVER), and they had Bush make the call.

  The meme that day was that they were close to a deal, 90% done.  Bull!  That&#039;s why they called McCain; to wrangle the &#039;Pubs.  Normally, McCain wouldn&#039;t have a seat at the table (nor would Obama).  That&#039;s how you know it&#039;s bogus.  If the deal were near done, they wouldn&#039;t allow the candidates at the table at all.

  Thur., McCain flies to NY, takes care of a couple obligations, then heads for D.C.  (Ads keep running, because the deals for those ads were made days in advance and contracts must be honored.)  They sit in the meeting all afternoon.  Do the candidates have to do or say anything?  No.  But if a deal is to be made, the Dems need the &#039;Pubs, and the &#039;Pubs need McCain.  Barry&#039;s window dressing.  The Dems don&#039;t need him.  He&#039;s there to protect his campaign.  Sucks to be him.  The deal right now is a no-go.  Surprise, surprise, all lard-y, to the tune of another $100 Billion.  Be glad McCain&#039;s there to prevent the piling of the pork.

  Now, they&#039;ll work into the night.  McCain may have to talk to his people about other options.  If he can come up with something palatable to the &#039;Pubs, it&#039;s game over.  They present it, make a few concessions, and the deal is done.  Dems must go along or be vilified.  Barry says, &quot;Me, too.&quot;

  For my money, the bailout plan is dead, and instead we&#039;ll see some loans, etc....  It all comes down to this.  If McCain can make a deal, the election&#039;s basically over.  It&#039;ll be a massive victory.  If nothing happens, McCain can blame the Dems and still salvage something, and Obama can blame McCain.  But in reality, we probably all lose at that point.</description>
