That banking bill is a warning to us. Look how it got to Obama's desk
Both the house and Senate had it. No Public debate about it and No record of HOW the House and Senate voted
News on this bill being on the President's hit this morning and it is not until basically this afternoon we ar assured that the President won't sign the bill.
That's not the half of it. If Congress doesn't go into recess the bill goes back to them which than can become law if 2/3rds past the bill.
Honestly we have to stop a moment and start asking:
What if the Story on the Bill never hit, what than?
How is it that when there is Democratic control of congress that bill like this would past without being made public AND isn't this a tactic we expect from the Repugs? Think patriot Act Think back to the Bank bills passed in Capitalism -a love Story.

Nah you will just blame Bush and continue to support these thugs.

33. I agree with you glinda. Obama was prepared to bail out the banks once again but the sun shone on
this fraud and the public mobilized.
Watch it now you are acting like a racist, criticizing lord 0.

41. Yeah, let's all blame Obama for the bill he didn't sign.
Typical DU.
This stinker of a bill has been around since 2005, when no one could have predicted what is happening now. The Senate has been sitting on it since then. So the question should be why did the Senate suddenly vote on it.
Yeah why did the Democrat controlled senate vote on it now?

40. The smell is the stench of corruption, lathered in mendacity, as we the people were in the process
of being shit upon, or such tactics would seem to indicate, all while glossing over massive fraud fbo of the fraudsters et al causing much of the economic and financial meltdown. 
Once again who runs the show?

6. Just wait until around the holidays....
that's when Congress does it best dirty work. Everyone is shopping and partying and NOT watching the news. It's a very dangerous time...right before Xmas.
I'm glad we caught this. I called and emailed the White House. Today it worked. We must always be on the lookout.
And you seriously want to not only keep these people in power but, add to their numbers?
