biLL, the jury is still not in on the bailouts. They started with Bush (about 4 billion) and continued with Obama (about 12 billion). And keep in mind that a good 10% of the bailouts were Canadian funded. Some of the same people who bitched when Bush did it laud it when Obama does it. Go figure. BTW, you are a friend, so if that makes you Public Enemy #1, well, proud to know you.
