Wow, I sure wish John Edwards was still around to exploit this huge issue.
How would you like to explain to your grandson. "Well, the reason everyone calls you a bastard is because I supported the policy that excluded your mothers from getting married... so, well, you will always be a bastard, Samuel!"
Samuel, "Gee, thanks Grandpa!"
I own a small business which is struggling. I was forced to layoff my wife -- who thankfully got a better job. We are struggling to make our mortgage payments and save for retirement. But we are making the payments. Why, exactly, should our tax dollars be used to bail the people that Barney Frank says "made a mistake?"
The Democratic policies support gay relationships. Gore would have been proud of his daughter and demanded they be fully recognized as married.
Cheney didn't destroy his family? How so? I would call NOT supporting gay marriage destroying his grandchild's chances of NOT being called a bastard throughout his life. All the Republicans had to do is allow gay marriage and many children in gay families would have the opportunity of being treated equally but money, and power, is more important than family in the Cheney households. Obviously.
Oh, I almost forgot, I'm talking to "Busboy." Logic doesn't work with you. It takes some kind of desperate Republican to try to confer honorable intentions onto the despicable actions to promote intolerance for political purposes. Instead of protecting his family, Cheney chose to appeal to the ignorant Bush base.
Uh, the bigger question being posed is why does the MILLIONAIRE CORPORATE types always get bailed out? We are talking about people losing their homes, and going where? If tax dollars go anywhere, it should go to keep people in their homes. If we are going to bail anyone out it should be from the bottom up instead of the top down.
I have a question for you, if we don't bail out the homeowners then should the mortgage companies get any help? If the homeowner is helped and pays their mortgage then the mortgage company gets their payment. Wouldn't you rather see that than a bunch of "Bushville" shanty towns? We don't need modern day "Hoovervilles" or "Bushvilles."
It's not fair that richest of the richest got bailed out, but it isn't fair for these guys to get bailed out either. It isn't fair to the people that bought houses in their price range and were responsible with their money.
Whoa, there. I heard Obama on some program about a month ago say he was for civil unions but not gay marriage. At the time I wondered why there was not some kind of response but no one said anything. I don't know about Hillary, I can't stand to listen to her.

Big media...redefining the term "quisling" downward...
LOL sorry, I will try to refrain in the future

So then I will loose the house we just got to taxes...
Thank you Lib Dem dominated Sacramento for killing my American Dream.
Don't worry I know it is all Bushes fault right?
Well I guess we can find a house in Utah, at least they know how to run a state without running it into the ground.
In the real world , everybody ALWAYS knew the big guys were gonna get help - that's why it's good to be the king, so they say. The only live question in the real world (and not magic pony world) was whether *only* the big guys would get bailed out, or whether BOTH the big guys AND the little guys would get bailed out.
Given those choices, which are the REAL WORLD choices, I choose the second in a heartbeat.
How could anything be more fair? [snark]
We are still in Iraq. We are still being spied on by our own government without warrants supported by probable cause. the lists goes on and on.
We have but one party, two faces, with each face sucking the breasts of mother money and offer the relief of momma gubment to the rich only.
The way to stop this is to cut of DCs cash flow, by reducing tax inflows. With the money comes the power. A mass tax protest and/or a refusal to work thus strangling DC is a way. It will never happen, but if it did just watch those repubs changes their anti-immigration stance in a second.
Government should bail out neither the homeowner who has fallen on hard times nor Wall Street. One learns from failure and suffering. Government handouts and bailouts only teach one to ask for more, just like my pug at the treat jar.
