"Resounding yes to bailout; As markets quake, House passes and Bush signs $700b rescue plan" by Michael Kranish and Jenny Paul, Globe Correspondent | October 4, 2008
WASHINGTON - The House of Representatives, heeding warnings about an imminent "economic catastrophe," yesterday decisively passed a revised, massive $700 billion financial rescue package, allowing the Bush administration to implement a plan to address the greatest Wall Street crisis since the Great Depression.
From WHO? The SAME DAMN LIARS that LIED about Iraq, 9/11, and ,well, EVERYTHING ELSE?!!!! '
Nice going, DemocraPs!!!!!!
In a reversal of Monday's tense House session, in which the bill fell 12 votes short, triggering a record-setting dive in the stock market, congressional leaders yesterday picked up 58 votes, more than enough to approve it on a 263-171 tally. Within hours, the bill was sent to the White House for President Bush's signature.
See how THAT gets mentioned in the SECOND PARAGRAPH while YESTERDAYS DROP AFTER the BILL PASSED is FURTHER DOWN?
Yeah, FUCK YOU and your LYING, OBFUSCATING AGENDA-PUSHING, Boston Globe!!!!
"We were dealt a bad hand, and we made the most of it," House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said in a press conference afterward. She vowed that lawmakers will keep a close eye on Wall Street, and charged House Financial Services Committee Chairman Barney Frank, a Newton Democrat, and Representative Henry Waxman, Democrat of California, to chair hearings on the matter.
Pelosi, you are the FIRST ONE to SWING!!!!!!!!!!
What an ABSOLUTE FAILURE as a SPEAKER of the House! An UNMITIGATED FAILURE, folks!!! Hey, Democrats, what HAS SHE DONE FOR YOU? Stopped the WAR FUNDING? Reigned in the TYRANNY of the BUSH REGIME?
She is a FAILURE WORSE than BUSH because AT LEAST HE GOT WHAT HE WANTED!!!
The bill helps ensure "the economic security of our country," she said. "And the high fliers on Wall Street will no longer be able to jeopardize that future."
And ON TOP of THAT, she is an UNHOLY FUCKING LIAR!!!!!!!!!!!
Bush congratulated Congress and said the bill will "stabilize our financial markets and maintain a leading role in the global economy." Nonetheless, the financial markets still showed anxiety about the weakened state of the economy. Despite the bill's passage, the Dow Jones industrial average dropped 157.47 points to 10,325.38.
Yeah, the DROP AFTER the BILL PASSING is INSIDE the PAPER!!
Yeah, FUCK YOU and your fucking AGENDA-PUSHING BULLSHIT, Boston Globe!!!! FUCK YOU!!!!!!!!!!
You are going to get the SAME TREATMENT the POLITICIANS DO!!
ROPE!!!!!!!!!!!!
But Frank said most members who moved from no to yes did so because they feared that rejecting the package would lead to widespread economic chaos, further draining the value of retirement accounts and freezing credit.
That is NOT WHY it passed: Congress Folds Under Martial Law Threat By Bush
Ah, what is ONE MORE FUCKING LIE from the BOSTON GLOBE, anyway?!!!!!
When the House voted down the first proposal, Wall Street stocks plummeted by a record 777.68 points, setting off a roller-coast week in the markets.
Pfft!
You guys ALREADY MENTIONED THAT ABOVE!! Talk about HAMMERING HOME an AGENDA!!!
Hey, like Hitler said, just keep REPEATING the LIE and SOON people will believe it -- unless you are on to the pro-rich, pro-banks, pro-corporate, Zionist-controlled, war-promoting, agenda-pushing AmeriKan MSM!!!!
Then I WON'T BELIEVE a GOD-DAMN WORD from the LYING SHITTERS!!!!!!!!!!!!
Among those who switched their votes was Representative John Tierney, a Salem Democrat, who decided to support the measure after seeing the "state of panic in the markets."
Well, VOTE HIM OUT then, Mass. voters!
And America, VOTE ALL the INCUMBENTS OUT -- ALL of 'EM!!!!
And if they don't get the message then -- ROPE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Here is the complete list of TRAITORS to be HUNG:
Senate Passes Wall Street Looting Bill
Final Vote Results for Roll Call 674
List of Representatives who Switched from "Nay" to "Yea"
Representatives Stephen Lynch of South Boston and William Delahunt of Quincy, two other Massachusetts Democrats who helped defeat the bill on Monday, voted no again yesterday, objecting to the bill on principle.
Then YOU GUYS are SPARED!
The core of the Bush administration's bailout plan remains similar to the version defeated in the House.
Readers, What Part of "NO!" Does the U.S. Congress Not Understand?
Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson is granted authority to purchase up to $700 billion in troubled mortgage-backed securities from debt-riddled Wall Street firms, a move designed to free up the credit markets. Under the plan, Paulson and his successor can immediately use $250 billion to start cleaning up the mess, with $100 billion more in reserve, but only if the current and future president certifies to Congress that it is necessary. Lawmakers also have reserved the right to block the remaining $350 billion if the Treasury can't justify it.
Pfft! Right, like they are going to do ANY OF THIS "oversight." They are in FINANCE'S POCKET, otherwise this LOOTING BILL would NEVER HAVE PASSED!
So FUCK YOU and the DISINGENOUSNESS, Boston Globe!! What a PICECE of SOFT-SERVE SWIRLEY SHIT you are!!!!
The bill also caps salaries on corporate executives whose companies take federal bailout money, creates a board to oversee the bailout and requires any profits from the program to go into federal coffers. The government could profit if the troubled securities it buys eventually rise in value.
You know, I am SO SICK of having SMOKE BLOWN UP MY ASS by the fucking AmeriKan jewsmedia!!
FUCK YOU, you BAND of FUCKING LIARS!!!!!!!!!!!
Fifty-eight members - 33 Democrats and 25 Republicans - switched their votes from "no" to "yes."
HANG 'EM: List of Representatives who Switched from "Nay" to "Yea"
Many legislators said they got an earful from their constituents during the week, including small-business owners who can't get credit and homeowners facing foreclosure.That is SUCH BULLSHIT!!!! Yeah, they heard from us and the chorus was a RESOUNDING NO -- save for the PROPAGANDA PHONE BANKS and the CALLS of BANK PRESIDENTS and WALL STREET!!! So FUCK YOU and your GOD-DAMN LYING, Boston Globe!!!!
That helped shift the emphasis of the debate from rescuing well-heeled but reckless Wall Street firms to helping everyday taxpayers.
Translation: The MSM sold you a CRAP SANDWICH -- all at the behest of the White House.
See WHO the AmeriKan MSM is WORKING FOR, readers?
It SURE AS HELL AIN'T YOU, is it, average American?
Representative Mike Thompson, Democrat of California, said he switched his vote to support the bill in order to help the economy. He would not say whether the insertion of a measure to give tax breaks for auto racing tracks, which he had previously tried to get passed, played a role in his decision. One such race track is in Thompson's district. The addition of such sweeteners was criticized by some who said the bailout bill was being loaded with wasteful earmarks.
We got the NOOSE ready, Mike!!!
"This was the right vote for the American people today," Thompson said in an interview. "It's not everything I wanted but I think it is the best we could get."
Tierney said he did so though he still has "strong and serious concerns" about the bill. "I am aware that there is no guarantee this will work, and that, regardless, we can expect financial conditions to continue to worsen for a while," Tierney said in a statement posted on his website. --more--"
Too late to SAVE YOUR SCALP, shitter!!!
And WHAT IF it NEVER COMES BACK? There are NO GUARANTEES IT WILL, America!
THEN WHAT? You gonna start EXACTING VENGEANCE THEN, or just take ANOTHER COCK up the ass as you GRAZE on your GOVERNMENT- and MSM-PROVIDED BOWL of SHIT!???
