My friend Kirk sent this in today:
Now it is a real legitimate question and grievance. Americans are a bit squeamish about "spreading the wealth around." I think that Obama totally went back on his word in terms of campaign financing. (He pledged to accept public financing if McCain did.) Yes, politicians prevaricate all the time but what's next? I support him but am noting a strike call on this one. We need to be honest across the board.
But my answer to Kirk is, we take money from the American taxpayer, give it to a few select banks and insurance companies so that they can devour their competition, subsidize failing Wall Street companies so that they can pay their overpriced executives exorbitant salaries and bonuses and host expensive junkets at the Montage, but ask them nicely to please loan the money out. Which example is socialism?

It took alot of money to wipe out Hitler and the Nazi's.
Too bad Obama did not have even more donations to run ads 24/7.
Hey georgie---Gonna send you back to Texas-make you work on your ranch............
It's a shame that we bicker and postulate while the real criminals always walk off scott free. Maybe W will make a ride under the Triple Underpass while in Dallas?
