I'm sending this fax to my Senators and Congressperson

To put it bluntly: NO CASH FOR TRASH!

I'm against giving money to bankers for their toxic waste. This plan was devised by, and is for the benefit of, the same people who got us into this situation.

There are other alternatives. Congress needs to hold hearings and listen to economists who saw this coming – for example, Nouriel Roubini, Robert Kuttner, and Dean Baker. It may take a couple of weeks longer, but this is a time to do what is NECESSARY, not what is convenient.

The fear-based stampede that the Bush Gang is trying to provoke is a giant rip-off. Although it is merely robbery, instead of mass murder (wars of choice against nations that never harmed us), it is yet another crime. I hope to live long enough to see fair trials for the lot of them.

Well I'm praying for War Crimes trials by 2012, but I ain't holding my breath.
I saw Biden's trial balloon about "going after this corruption" shot down, and by Biden himself. Not sure what to make of it, but I dont' have a good feeling about it.

Imagine, the Congress actually expressed the will of the people this time.

Who knows if it's good or bad?
