"My" congressman rarely votes doesn't seem to do much of anything thus regardless of his vote on this I will be voting against him.

"My" senator voted for it . He seems to likes pork that goes private corps in other states but I don't thus I will be voting against him also .
Its to bad because by S.Florida standards he isnt a nightmare but now he to must be voted out.

But, guess what? The Democrats blocked it. It came up again in 2007, and again the Democrats blocked it. "

I agree Obama is a great talker/speech giver as far as real action terrible.

Not a bad guy at all but just another same ole same ole politician who has fooled many with empty words.

I hear you but prob with 3rd party is do you want one party running it all Senate-Congress and Pres office?

I do not . Reps did horrible job and Dems will do just as lousy job. History has shown that the be true.

I like balance of power which is why now considering Mccain . Only to balance out Pelosi and Reid.

You are right. And this is exactly why I have no faith in any of our politicians. We hear all this crap, "no more pork barrel spending", but yet, this thing started out at 700 billion a few days ago, and now, the new improved version is over 800 billion with all kinds of new BS spending.

How the hell did this bill go from 110 pages to over 400 pages of BS? These politicians see a way to suck more money out of us and they go for it, hoping that nobody will notice.

I am not happy with either party. The Republicans have been spending like drunken sailors and the democrats are just as bad.

Can somebody post who some of the knotheads are who added some of these new spendings?

Unfortunately Ron Paul is not in the mix, which says something about the media and also the American people

Come November, in Texas, I will ABSOLUTELY vote against each and every Senator or Congressman up for re-election who voted YES for this bail out, which was AGAINST the will of the people they are supposed to represent.
