Other sites are saying that the email and switchboards are down.

Let's include the RNC in this. THey're the people with the money.

Here's the blog for the guy who is running the RNC. Let's make comments there too. http://chairmanduncan.wordpress.com/

They have a Facebook account, but I've managed to lock myself out. So if somebody can post a link there, I'd be much obliged.

Once again they act like they know what's best.

BTW correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't bills that deal with money suppose to originate from the House? Then again with all the executive orders Bush has wrote throughout the years, I'm surprised he hasn't written one declaring the constitution unconstitutional, declared himself emperor and wrote himself a blank check for his buddies on Wall St. I'm surprised he is even going through Congress.

This Congress has been doing anything they want to for years, and they don't seem to care about the rules. They are all in a frenzy trying to pay back the people who funded their campaigns. They know it's time to pay the fiddler, and they're going to make sure the people pay it for them.

DON'T LET THESE CROOKS GET AWAY WITH THIS!

I'm on the calls now !!

KEEP IT UP EVERYONE, I THINK IT IS GOING TO BE A BUSY DAY IN THE SENATE...ALSO KEEP E-MAILING THE HOUSE EVERYONCE IN A WHILE TO LET THEM KNOW WE ARE STILL OUT HERE AND WE ARE STILL MAD AS HELL!!

It just makes me sick to listen to Obama and Mc Cain and all of these peope out there cheering their lies, and throwing their country away, it is so pathethic....I wish they would get them off the MSM it is making me sick to my stomach!!

How different is the senate bill? Is it a revenue bill? Revenue bills must begin in the House.

Kyle just said on FOX they added an extended package to the bill to help the bail out pass.....the BS politicians put the alternative minimum tax and two other important things that I can not even remember right now because I am so pissed off at these dirty rats all to make sure this Bail Out will pass!

Since Congress is having trouble receiving e-mails, I'll be adding a bunch
of your e-mails here.
Reader Bryan writes:
The bailout is just mopping the floor and even replacing some flooring after
a leak; it does not fix the leak. The only way to fix the leak is to either
abolish the Community Reinvestment Act or at least repeal the idiotic
interpretation and expansion of the act under the Clinton administration
(Janet Reno), whereby financial institutions were/are strong-armed into
creating loans for people who can't afford them. Why will no one talk about
this? We might as well keep the mop handy, because we'll need it again.
Amen to that.
Reader Charon Z:
Banks are still lending, this is an easy and clear chart to send our
retarded Senators and Reps who of course aren't interested in really bailing
anyone except their friends on wall street out. Oh, by the way I went and
talked to my small local well managed bank yesterday. They are still loaning
on cars, houses, and commercial property. We are having a small boom here in
small town Texas.

Yes, there is a "bad" credit crisis. If you have "bad" credit you can no
longer get a loan, you may go bankrupt, that is how the system is supposed
to work. It is called capitalism. So, far the system seems to be working
like it is supposed to. You make bad choices you get punished. So what is it
our feckless government saviors are going to fix again? Or did I mishear and
they mean the fix is in.
Reader meow:
Congress be damned, the fed is printing of $630 billion just because they
can. Our government is no longer accountable to the American people
Reader Steve in Virginia:
Just emailed Sen Warner. I vote and donate GOP. Told him if he voted for any
bailout bill that had Dodd's fingerprints anywhere on it, I'd vote for his
Democrat challenger the next election cycle.
Reader Gene:
Just thought I'd pass along my thoughts on the Big Bailout and what looks to
be Son of Big Bailout. The dire warnings of economic meltdown that are being
used to ram this thru remind me of "The Ticks' Argument".
Dog: " Mr. Tick, why do you have your head buried in my flesh?"
Tick: "I'm saving your life."
Dog: "I don't understand, can you explain?"
Tick: "By sucking your blood, I encourage your system to create new blood,
thereby improving your health."
Dog: " Oh, ok. Thanks"
Well, this dog ain't buyin it. Time to scratch.
Gene
Reader Ronald:
I can't get through to my Senators Alexander and Corker. If any of you see
them tell them they can shove it where the sun don't shine! If you think
this was badly worded, you should see the unedited text I wrote!
...I love the auto racing tracks [earmark[ in particular. I can see the
headlines now: "Global financial markets melt down, NASCAR, Caribbean rum
hardest hit". As many people have said now, I'd be more inclined to take
this crisis seriously if people on the Hill didn't use it to butter up their
favored constituencies.
The Senate will vote at around 7:35 PM tonight on this bill. I'd expect an
easier passage, thanks to provisions to expand FDIC insurance and an added
authority to suspend mark-to-market rules that may make some of the rest of
this bill unnecessary. Senate leadership isn't taking any chances; they've
added this as an amendment to a bill containing some legislation sought by
both liberals and conservatives, making it difficult to oppose from any
direction.

KEEP POUNDING THEM ON THE PHONES PATRIOTS. TELL THEM NO AMOUNT OF WINDOW DRESSING WILL BE ACCEPTABLE TO PASS THIS ABOMINATION. TELL THEM TO KEEP THEIR HANDS OUT OF OUR POCKETS AND LET THE MARKETS CORRECT THEMSELVES

You may want to fax or email this plan from Dave Ramsey to send an alternative "common sense fix".
