Don't try to make this political. 93 Democrats voted against it the first time, many of whom were on Barney Frank's committee. Pelosi did not want it to look like a Rebublican victory so she sabotaged the vote. If some House Republicans change their mind its because they think it's a better bill...and the GOP did not attach the pork to it.
its all political and both parties have been deplorable. but the pork is the worst part and id like to know who wasnt going to pass the bill without it.
I agree you as well,(hell is wrong with me today), I agree with the banking reforms, even though they didnt have that kind of time according to Bush. I also agree with the hogs at the trough concept, like they just found more mud to throw on this shyt pile.
The bailout was necessary, and the reforms will come. There was no need for them to be a big part of the bailout.
