Works for me . At least we'd get something out of it unlike the war we are in right now . I still think we should run a pipe line from Iraq straight over the the Persian Gulf and have American tankers there to bring it back to the U.S.A .

I have always like Newt for his way of speaking. He seems to get to the heart of the matter quickly. Here is his quote from a Washington Post article:

"We have now launched big-government Republicanism. If we saw France do this, Italy do this, we would have thought it was crazy. We would have had pious speeches about the folly of bureaucrats running businesses."

I don't agree often with him on ideology. I just happen to here.

Damn, and I thought $50 billion a year for socialized medicine was bad, but at least that was just 50 billion per year. Now we need to take $700 billion up the ass all at once, anyone know of some good tax havens? ;)

The Treasury Secretary is now above the law. Good luck comrades.


Sec. 8. Review.
Decisions by the Secretary pursuant to the authority of this Act are non-reviewable and committed to agency discretion, and may not be reviewed by any court of law or any administrative agency.

It would raise the national debt ceiling to $11.3 trillion. http://www.nytimes.com/2008/09/21/business/21cong.html?ref=worldbusiness

I heard on the radio that some in congress want to pile on some more; tax cuts for the poor, more rebate checks, mortgage subsidies for people that can't aford their homes. :rolleyes:

Who can aford a home now, hell mine has been paid for for 30 years, and I get to buy it again ( in TAXES) about every 4 years. I think if these greedy basterds made bad loans, to people that they were tying to rip off anyway, they should take it up the ass like we have to do. But our wonderfull government will let our great,great, great, great, great grandkids pay the assholes debts. :mad:
