Oh my.
But as usual--in fact, it's getting rather tedious and boring--Pedro Picasso, El Stupido Supremo, has no idea what he's talking about.

How come non [sic] of these Fools on the Hill are DEMANDING PAULSONS [sic] HEAD?
It's surreal, watching all the morning shows...one "expert" after another talks about the Paulson Switcheroo, the Paulson money pit doing nothing, that we've been hosed, that there is NO TRANSPARENCY. "We can't just give money to Detroit without some sort of accountability and transparency. We can't have another situation like the $700,000,000,000 to Paulson.
Yet not a single person is talking about revisiting the Paulson bailout, possibly reigning him in, maybe putting a moratorium on any releases until we get some accountability. I mean, the money is only HALF SPENT, and while all these congress critters prattle on about how they were hoodwinked, not a single one of them has proposed to do ANYTHING to stop it from going any further. It's freakin' crazy.
Oh, but those damned union workers, they're bilking us dry! Let our manufacturing base fail! Throw people out of their homes! The final chapter in Bush's destruction of the economy...if only it were the final chapter.

7. Atrophy of leadership
Our elected leaders in Congress have no leadership skills. Pelosi and Reid are completely absent of any skills of leadership. They are so weak. I see posts on here of how Reid is some great chess player but it is all in your head. They should never have been allowed to be where they are. We would be better off having the Senator and Congressmen with the largest majority of state votes be the leaders, not the who has been here the longest and is the most stuck in the play it safe world of needing to be elected again. Why is DU still relevant? Because we need to watch and discuss and push for removal of Dems that suck. We need to take them out in primaries and stay involved in our democratic process. Learn from the follies of the past and replace anyone that has a whiff of zero passion to help the American people.

You had your chance, Little goons. Didn't that Shirley Sheehad woman try to oust Pelosi? How'd that work for ya? 90/10?
