I heard on NPR News at noon that the bankruptcy protection bill passed by the House
...and soon to be ratified by the Senate will be vetoed by Bush. Another gift to Bush's base of the ultra-rich and a complete slap-down for the 80% working people at risk of losing their homes struggling to make ends meet as prices of everything keep going up.

2. ROFL at the pic and the sig line
because I know a nanosecond after the picture was snapped, the living arm candy rebelled and worried all that crap off its body and paws, fake pearls and lace flying everywhere.

As for Stupid, let him veto. Let the Democrats raise a howl over it on all the yap shows, howling over the right wing yappers for a change.

Let everybody see that the GOP is openly hostile to the American people and want only Empire for the rich.

5. It is NOT
a bankruptcy protection bill. It is a bail out the "Mortgage Lenders who put us in this crap" bill.
This might be the first time I agree with Bush.

6. Me too. I really don't understand what Frank & Co. are thinking.
I guess they just want to be able to say they "did something".
