Ben,
Good points. I've also been hearing about the "mark to market" accounting system that was implemented after Enron. In effect, banks must list assets at current market values as opposed real projected value. If this system were eliminated, wouldnt bank balance sheets look more attractive to investors?
What makes me sick about this whole plan is that the likelyhood of the govt making a profit with our tax dollars seems super high. We will never see a dividend and guys like Warren Buffet make millions to billions on our backs.

Why would he support Obama?? They played the race card on the "first black Pres!"
sorry. Did I hurt your feelings? I think you are just angry. Go get a puppy or something.
The economy is on a downturn, we are at war, the planet is burning up, gas prices are high, etc etc and McCain is hanging right with your puppet of a candidate:)
You just can't figure out why everyone isnt as angry as you and Eric.
Sorry for the hijack.
Truth hurts. It's not a conservative/liberal problem. It's a greed problem on both sides.
You're just a mudslinger, sir.
You calling me bad at the interweb makes me feel great. Because unlike you, it sounds like I have a life.
What part of the "conservative playbook" did Franklin Raines (Obama Economic Advisor) write when he was CEO of Fannie Mae in 2002?

How about Ms. Jamie Gorelick who was appointed by Clinton to be VP of the Federal National Mortgage Association? Was she writing the conservative playbook too, Jeffy?

Yep, crazy lefties resort to name calling.
Did you watch last night? O'reilly blasted Bush and everyone in his cabinet. SEC chair, Energy Sec, etc. And I happen to agree with him.
So here is a thought...try rushing to another conclusion and make yourself look worse.
Gee, another hater lefty that hates O'reilly? Say it aint so! You and the other guy watching Olberman should flip the channel from MSNBC and watch it a few times.
Just got one at the store today...it really is a slick vehicle. Second generation navigation with sirius link and SYNC is unreal. Real time gas prices, movie times, weather, sports scores....fun stuff:) The thing has a cooler big enough to hold like eight bee er cans of pop!
You dont sound like you attend OSU. If you do, hopefully you will get it someday. Current students, alums, faculty...it's a family. Once a Buckeye, always a Buckeye. Be annoyed all you like, but "WE" will always be Buckeyes
