These whores are spending our future to bankruptcy....

Actually, the $50 billion is to save teachers, police and firefighters from being laid off. It has nothing to do with creating jobs. They need to save union jobs. I have no problem with helping law & fire enforcement. With unemployment at record levels, there has been a rise in crime all over the nation. But we should not be bailing out the teachers union. We hear so much about the unions needing a bailout but they managed to spend $10 million opposing Blanche Lincoln in the Democrat primary.

Both violent crime and property crime were down nationwide in 2009 for the third straight year.

And, the FOP endorsed McCain.

I guess you think preventing teacher lay-offs is a union issue, rather than an education issue. I would disagree and the alternative to temporary federal funding is higher state/local taxes.

Unions are what the most naive discuss when told how to think by their political handlers. It is 100% about keeping the important (productive) people employed. You should have been asking these questions when relevant - when George Jr said Mission Accomplished would only cost $2billion. Well, it cost $1trillion. Today is when we pay that bill. That means every American is expected to have a lower standard of living. Or did George Jr forget to mention that part?

Stop with the union nonsense. It is about all workers who must now suffer because wacko extremists 'fixed' our economy with miracle tax cuts. Vietnam in 1968 and 1970 got paid for by destruction on the American standards of living in 1975 and 1979 - when the bills started coming due. Deja Vue. Or did you forget to learn the lessons from history? Ask how much taxes must increase to pay for 'corporate welfare', tax cuts for the rich, finance games, and Masson Accomplished in 2003.

It is not a question of how much some workforce should be paid or punished. It is 100% a question of how much your standard of living must degrade for the myths and lies by government in 2003. Unions did not create the real problem. We did by listening to overt liars in 2003. And then have so much contempt for ourselves as to relect the scumbags in 2004.

There is no way around it. It is only a question of how much more we must pay for these essential services.
