WASHINGTON – Democrats on Capitol Hill yesterday called for major revisions in the broad, $700 billion bailout plans for Wall Street financial firms, seeking tighter restrictions on executive pay, increased regulation of financial dealings, and help for homeowners facing foreclosure.

Great.

First the Democrats create a financial meltdown by voting against – along party lines – the Fannie Mae / Freddie Mac reform bill that Republicans crafted in the Senate Banking Committee three years ago, and now – as the price for allowing a RINO president to engage in socialist behaviors – they demand “only if we at least get some socialism in here!” and come out with a raft of new anti-freedom laws.

Helping homeowners facing foreclosures?

!@#$% them.

I haven’t taken a day off from work (including Saturdays and Sundays) in almost a month.

I’m making my mortgage payments.

Poor people are poor for a lot of reasons (failure to work in school, failure to defer gratification, failure to plan their families responsibly, etc., etc., etc.), but the biggest one is that they work far less, on average, than middle class, upper middle class, and rich people.

Helping homeowners facing foreclosures?

!@#$% them. If they can’t afford to live in their houses, then let them live in apartments. Someone else can afford those houses.

Giving in to Democrat demands?

!@#$% them. If they want a return to the unionized, protectionist, socialist past they can go visit Detroit.

We need a metric ass-ton of rope.

Also, where does Barney Frank get off showing his face in public?

As one of the top 20 recipients of Fannie Mae graft, he should, rightfully, be covered in crap and cowering in a spider hole outside of Tikrit hoping the authorities don’t find him, not making pronouncements on TV.

lawmakers included provisions to cap CEO severance payments, mindful that chief executives of failed mortgage companies Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac were in line to get severance packages worth tens of millions of dollars.

OK, here’s one thing that I can agree with.

…but let’s go further.

Some of these bastards bribed Democratic politicians (< cough > Obama) to preserve their government granted monopoly and frustrate any reasonable reforms.

!@#$% them. If they want to play with governmental fire, let them get burned. If we had trials and media coverage for Enron (which I’m still not convinced was a fraud on nearly the scale that the MSM would have us believe), then we should definitely have trials, media coverage, and jail time for the pseudo-government-employees at Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac (and, ideally, for Christopher J Dodd, John Kerry, Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, and all the others).

Rope for Christopher J Dodd. Rope for John Kerry. Rope for Barack Obama. Rope for Hillary Clinton.
