Billions and billions more down the drain.

I am not however surprised by Brown’s vote. He is not a Conservative, although his NO vote on health care was very nice……

Funny. I actually just looked at the DCCC’s website for the first time. One word – Humor.

McCain wrong on so many fronts.

In the article McCain stated – “Something had to be done because the world’s financial system was on the verge of collapse,” he said. “Any economist, liberal or conservative, would agree with that. The action they took, I don’t agree with.”

Uhhmmm, Mr. McCain, there are a lot of people that would disagree with that remark on a lot of fronts.
