St. Stalin the Apathetic · 10-03-08, 01:31 PM

I thought it was supposed to be up for a vote only 20 minutes ago.... did they move up the vote or was it just really fast?

what were the numbers?

david austin · 10-03-08, 01:33 PM

i didnt check the final

they hit 222 with about 96 left (218 was the magic number)

i hope the next time i get in trouble at work...the company votes to bail me out at the expense of others who don't make as much as me.

Yeah I am going to ask for a bailout next time I can't pay my bills because of the credit that I have taken on. I mean its only fair, and they are setting the precedent that its okay. I am a tax paying citizen, where's my bailout?!

c'mon guys, we had no choice. we had to bail them out. we are a country that never owns up to it's mistakes and we avoid having those who do the screwing up take responsibility for their actions. we had to bail them out to preserve the American way!

it's a double sided sword. lenders were allowed loose guidlines to qualify the idiots that signed w/ out reading.

bailing you out does nothing to free up the credit markets though

I think it's fucking lolz that this bill didn't pass on Monday, so they pumped it full of earmarks and it's magically ok.

J. Fees · 10-03-08, 04:02 PM

what a total fuckup.

I wonder what could have been if they had done this mon??

It frees up room on my cards which I could then turn around and use to bolster the economy
