HR 1424, the bailout, was universally rejected by the public. We managed to defeat the first draft of the bill. Rather than draft a sensible legislation, supporting representatives more or less added pork projects for key opposition representatives in order to get the votes required for passage.

Our elected officials deliberately opposed our will on this issue.

These are the names, lets make them famous.

It's time to start firing reps who underperform.

    I already have my list of who I'm voting against.

    I guess I've become a one-issue voter, but that's probably better than not voting like I've done for the past several elections.
    The only people we should try to get even with...
    ...are those who've helped us.

    Right 'round the corner could be bigger than ourselves.

    Jim Powell of the CATO institute, on the financial "crisis", relating a lot of historiccal knowledge as it applies to today's situation.

    I thought it was pretty informative.
