#1 I wrote my congress critters. Two are up for relection. Emails went through. I told them to kill the dirty bill or they will not get my vote.

#2 That is probably why I kept getting Ask.com when I typed in my congressman's address.

It is time to throw out ALL of the bums who couldn't get it right on this or the immigration issue. Let them drink tea.

#3 Well Congresspeople, do you just think maybe the ~~people you think are chumps~~ people in flyover land are slightly pi$$ed? Congressional elections are coming up in November. We won't forget you.

#4 This is what makes me believe the bailout ain't gonna happen. I can sorta see the wisdom in it even though I hate giving money to the crooks who got us into this mess. But it's like immigration. If you get that many representatives this close to an election with their constituents so pi$$ed off and watching so closely they're gonna get scared. And then ask yourself: How many of them really understand this problem any more than the average Joe Sixpack? Then you factor in that little speech that Madam Pelosi delivered on Monday and you have a very bad combination of factors. Bad for the bailout anyway.

The email crash makes me glad I sent my little rant to Madam Pelosi yesterday. Not that I'm under any illusions that she would ever read mine but the sheer volume has to be getting some kind of a message across.

Then I think, you know, what if she delivered that speech knowing full well that self-respecting Republicans could never vote in favor of the bailout after being slapped in the face like that? That leads to the question: What if the donks really want a depression? Because they think they can blame the Republicans and thereby get Obama elected? I wouldn't put it past them.
