As did Reid the other day. What did they expect? By accusing them, a vote in their favor would have been an admission of guilt.

Bigdave, would like to get your thoughts on this: If a politician changes his view, and one uses his original quote before the new view, would one be guilty of perpetrating an untruth? In my previous link, it is stated politicians lying is protected speech. If a politician can lie, or...

Sensationalism

Sight is frozen. Probably overloaded. There was another, but don't recall. Sure we'll be able to get in later.

We can only hope.

We had the biggest bank failure in US history Fri, and the Dow finished positive. I believe some of this bailout was priced in. Never the less, I will likely stay on the sidelines (though I will be watching the YM tonight). I think the real move comes after the votes.

OK Nancy and Harry, what part of your sorry bill states that you, the congress, will end your attempts at social engineering, meddling with the markets, etc? What part of your bill holds guilty politicians accountable? None? Why am I not surprised. Guess I'll go read it when I can get...

Just heard Kucinich bitching about not giving the transaction tax more consideration. Fucking loser. God, please let all these fuckers get voted out of office. Amen. :mad:

Perhaps that's why the dems were so desperate to have republicans on board. If they were to go it alone, the dems might lose seats. Of course, the dems knew the republicans would lose seats if they were on board. Now that they think they have a bill, it will be interesting to see how it...

Just think what it's going to be like if they get a filibuster proof congress.

I posted the following a few days back and it went unanswered. I would like to post it again since I keep hearing that we have to have a bill before the markets open. My question has been: Is the fed playing the market, or the economy? I got the impression that the emergency rate cuts early...

Let's not forget these great examples of left wing tolerance when it comes to free speech. Remember these? http://members.aol.com/basfawlty/shake_bc.htm http://www.justicejunction.com/government_clinton_rejects_freedom_of_speech.htm

It's about freedom. If you lie about someone, you may be sued for slander, but you are free to state it. If you go to jail for lying about someone, you are living in a dictatorship. I keep hearing the left say we have less freedom because of the patriot act. I say the same about "truth...

Way to go Sugar Shane! KO 2:59 of the 12th round. Classic finish!!!

Agree, but if it had to be, I would prefer it be the local sheriff.

I got a better idea. Let's have a truth squad for members of congress.

And if a candidate "changes his mind" on an issue, or a figure, or a date, etc...then is his current stand the truth? Is he guilty of a lie about himself? If his previous statement is quoted, is it now a lie because he changed his stand? The very people that hate the patriot act don't...

And if Palin steps down, that would be his best choice. Might not be a bad idea to have some business experience on the ticket, especially with congress freaking out in a panic. Just curious: How do the traders who hang out in this section feel about democrat proposals being tossed...

Frank Luntz's group of undecided gave BO the nod.
