Bush's Big Lie

[Chris]

Bush comes on television and tells us that we have to have a bailout by last Friday, or the world is coming to an end. Bullshit. There are thousands of banks in this country that never gambled on derivatives or made risky investments. These banks can all borrow money from the Fed at relatively low interest rates, therefore, there is no liquidity squeeze. Just like the Iraq war lies, and the bogus "war on terror," Bush is counting on the stupidity of the American people. During his speech the other night, there was a moment at the end where Bush got this little smirk on his face, as if he was thinking, "Nailed it! I will trick these fools again!" Well, not this time, Mr. Bush.
