Subject: RE: BS: Future of US Economy in My Hands...
Something has been bothering me all day. About a month ago baby bush and his band of merry men were giving Congress less than three days to approve a $700 Billion package to bail out failing banks.

Remember? Approve it by Friday. Monday will be too late?
They got the approval and the money but now no one is exactly sure where the money is going but it is NOT going to the banks. So did they lie? Both about the need and the timeline?

I think it's fascinating Bobert is putting more thought into his $600 than the government did into 700 Billion.
