I can't seem to face up to the facts
I'm tense and nervous and I
Can't relax
I can't sleep 'cause my bed's on fire
Don't touch me I'm a real live wire
Psycho Killer
Qu'est Que C'est

Run run run run run run run away
You start a conversation you can't even finish it.
You're talkin' a lot, but you're not sayin' anything.
When I have nothing to say, my lips are sealed.
Say something once, why say it again?
Psycho Killer,
Qu'est Que C'est
fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa far better
Run run run run run run run away
Ce que j'ai fais, ce soir la
Ce qu'elle a dit, ce soir la
Realisant mon espoir
Je me lance, vers la gloire ... OK
We are vain and we are blind
I hate people when they're not polite
Psycho Killer,

your really making a fool of your self
First you create an event that will never will occur.
Next when I ask you why, you come up with this?
I am starting to feel sorry for you
JRK, I quit taking you seriously many, many threads ago. I respond to your posts purely for fun. If it's a problem, hit the ignore button.
I can't respond to absurd posts with serious responses.

Doing harm to others?
No posters were harmed in the making of this point.
What slack? When too many banks fail for FDIC to handle it people loses their deposits - you can't move your money to a smaller bank if its GONE - can you? You don't really appear to get it. If a bank fails, and FDIC is exhausted, its depositors (the customers, with the checking accounts, i.e. YOU) - LOSE THEIR MONEY. FDIC isn't an infinite pool of insurance, once its gone its gone.yes...if too many banks fail, there are hundreds of other smaller banks that would gladly pick up the slack.
Its hardly "socialist" to prevent the collapse of our entire economy. Without TARP many of the the banks would not be solvent - which means their deposits then are only guaranteed by FDIC - but when FDIC runs out of money in its fund, its out, and deposits are no longer guaranteed, leading to bank runs and mass hysteria. There's a reason TARP had bi-partisan support - it would have been stupid to not do it.
As I recall the GWB tarp was a loan
great idea from a very good president
We got that money back and it prevented the end of the world as we had known it
and it started a new ideology of bailing out the irresponsible.
You vote for people who approve socialist policies like TARP....

TARP wasn't a loan. The government purchased troubled assets.
And it wasn't GWB's idea.

Technically your right about the idea

List of Banks That Took TARP Money - Banking News, Interest Rates, and Saving Advice
Citigroup (NY): $45 billion
AIG (NY): $40 billion
JPMorgan Chase (NY): $25 billion
Bank of America/Merrill Lynch (NC): $25 billion
Wells Fargo (CA): $25 billion
General Motors (MI): $14 billion
Goldman Sachs (NY): $10 billion
Morgan Stanley (NY): $10 billion
PNC Financial Services (PA): $7.58 billion
U.S. Bancorp (MN): $6.6 billion
Eight of the nine banks that were found to not need new capital following the government's bank stress tests last month made the list.
JPMorgan Chase (JPM, Fortune 500), Goldman Sachs (GS, Fortune 500), American Express (AXP, Fortune 500), Bank of New York Mellon (BK, Fortune 500), State Street (STT, Fortune 500) as well as regional banking giants Capital One (COF, Fortune 500), BB&T (BBT, Fortune 500) and U.S. Bancorp (USB, Fortune 500) all said they will pay back TARP funds. (Insurer MetLife also was not required to raise capital but it did not receive any TARP money.)
Investment bank Morgan Stanley (MS, Fortune 500), which was the only financial firm that regulators did ask to raise money after the stress tests, confirmed it also won approval from the Treasury Department to pay back $10 billion.
Chicago-based Northern Trust (NTRS, Fortune 500), which took in $1.576 billion in TARP funds but was not part of the bank stress tests, also Tuesday said it won government approval to exit the program.
All 10 financial firms indicated that they intended to pay back TARP funds by redeeming the preferred shares the government acquired in them last fall. Such a move would return approximately $68 billion to the government's coffers

Like I said, you call it what ever you want to call it.
Where I come from that's called collateral that would have been gone if not for Tarp
While we are on the subject 0f 2007 budget that brought in 2.5 trillion
how many jobs you think we would create if we just shut the IRS for one year?
That is (less) the same we have went in debt for the last 2 years
No-one pays one penny for 1 whole year
how many jobs would that create?

With no operating revenue for government, about 2.65 million jobs would be lost almost instantly, pushing unemployment up 1.6%.
Yes.
I admit Scalia made a huge fucking mistake with Gore v. Bush.
That was a clusterfuck.

In short -- to recount a close race is acceptable and that is exactly what happened. The vote-counting machines handed the win to Bush a SECOND time.
In a study of the Florida's ballots, the Miami Herald and USA Today reported George W. Bush would have widened his 537-vote victory to a 1,665-vote margin if the recount ordered by the Florida Supreme Court would have been allowed to continue, using standards that would have allowed even faintly dimpled "undervotes" -- ballots the voter has noticeably indented but had not punched all the way through -- to be counted.
Electoral Vote...
George W Bush 271
Albert Gore, Jr. 266
Bush won the popular vote in 60% of the 50 states,
Gore, winning the popular vote in 40% of the states
George W. Bush won 2,434 (78%) of the nation's 3,111 counties;
Al Gore won 677 (22%) of the counties
George Bush won 51 (77%) of Florida's 67 counties
Gore won 16 (23%) of the counties (primarily the population centers)
