Too many Americans, it would seem, don’t agree with taking on that kind of debt - and forcing it on future generations.

Michelle Malkin cracked me up, calling it ‘rejection of the crap sandwich’.

Still, after reading what Pelosi said about it, it would seem that people from both sides of the aisle who have brains and are in touch with reality - realize that what she said is a bunch of BS.

PELOSI: When was the last time anyone ever asked you for $700 billion?

It’s a staggering figure and many questions have arisen from that request. And we have been hearing a very informed debate on all sides of this issue here today. I’m proud of the debate.

$700 billion. A staggering number, but only a part of the cost of the failed Bush economic policies to our country. Policies that were built on budget recklessness when Pres. Bush took office, he inherited Pres. Clinton’s surpluses - four years in a row budget surpluses on a trajectory of $5.6 trillion in surplus. And with his reckless economic policies, within two years, he had turned it around. And now 8 years later, the foundation of that fiscal irresponsibility, combined with an “anything goes” economic policy, has taken us to where we are today.

They claim to be free-market advocates, when it’s really an anything goes mentality. No regulation, no supervision, no discipline. And if you fail, you will have a golden parachute and the taxpayer will bail you out.
Those days are over. The party is over in that respect.

Democrats believe in a free market. We know that it can create jobs, it can create wealth, many good things in our economy. But in this case, in this unbridled form, as encouraged and supported by the Republicans — some Republicans, not all — it has created not jobs, not capital, it has created chaos. And it is that chaos that the Secretary of the Treasury and the Chairman of the Fed came to see us, just about a week and a half ago. It seems like an eternity, doesn’t it? So much has happened. The news was so bad. They described a very dismal situation.

Sure they believe in capitalism; that’s why they blame capitalism and not the illegal alien problem, and not the activist groups putting pressure on the banks to give loans to people who had little HOPE to pay them off.

It’s liberal politics that brought us here…not repugnitards, although it’s convenient to throw the blame elsewhere and typical that they wouldn’t accept responsibility for their part in this mess.

Here’s a refresher for you, Nancy.
