Oh yeah, and Mr. Bush said the other day "Banking system Basically Sound"..... Watch out in a bout 1 mo to 2.....
SEE, THE PROBLEM WITH JUST MAKING CAMPAIGN CONTRIBUTIONS IS ITS LIKE HAVING A SQUIRT GUN IN YOUR POCKET...
EVENTUALLY YOU'RE GONNA HAVE TO TO CALL PEOPLE AND REMIND THEM YOU MADE THEM YOU COUGHED UP A LOT OF DOUGH TO KEEP THEM IN OFFICE, MUCH LIKE YOU'D HAVE TO PULL THE SQUIRT GUN OUT AND USE IT...
BUT, IF YOU HAVE THE SENATORS THEMSELVES IN YOUR POCKET, IT'S LIKE HAVING A BAZOOKA... NOBODY'S GONNA TEST YOU...

I think CB has nailed it. Rich people in America own the government, and they are above the law.
Add that to GE's CEO saying just weeks before their earnings tanked: "good earnings are in the bag".
No one saw this coming...
What, me worry?
