I don't think I can watch. I had the congressional hearings on all afternoon. If I watch Dubya my head will probably explode.

Anyone want to bet 9/11 and terrorists get mentioned in this speech?

[pacelli]

I'll be watching his general demeanor and non-verbals. I get more information from this behavioral data than I would if I hung on his every word.

[devil21]

Yep, almost time for the Great Decider to school us all on economics and how creating trillions of money we don't have is a good thing for the economy. Ohh cant wait!

[Kotin]

oh shit.. hes so insufferable

[CasualApathy]

Is there going to be an online stream? I really want to see this.

[georgiapeach]

Looks like they will be streaming it on Cspan.

[devil21]

Is there going to be an online stream? I really want to see this.

Probably one of the main US news networks will have an online stream from their website. That would be your best bet I think.

[RSLudlum]

"There is nothing to fear, but government itself!!!!"

I can just hear GW fumbling the saying with a classic freudian slip :D

[aravoth]

If you don't support the bailout, you are a terrorist.

[DJ24966]

If you don't support the bailout, you are a terrorist.

Would not shock me one bit.

[fedup100]

Please, people, if his lips are moving you know what it means.

Aravoth, you are spot on!

[Original_Intent]

I PREDICT FEAR MONGERING TO TRY AND GET PUBLIC SUPPORT BEHIND THIS BAILOUT

sorry caps lock, I didnt want to re-type it. :D

[devil21]

Hmm, if its hard to borrow money right now, then why does my Chase card still have a $15,000 limit that I could max out tomorrow if I wanted?

[socialize_me]

LOL anyone see the Daily Show last night?? Listening to Bush explain economics makes McCain look like he's a genius at it.

[MsDoodahs]

I am shaking mad.

[MsDoodahs]

Be afraid, everyone be terrified!!!!!

Be terrified!!!!

[Original_Intent]

We could face years of RECESSION if we don't pass this bill!!!


OH NOES!!!!!11:eek:

[JosephTheLibertarian]

If you support Baldwin, I know you can support Bush. It's a smooth transition, from a religious nutcase, to a corrupt religious nutcase.

[devil21]

We need more credit!

Nevermind too much credit caused this problem in the first place.

[RSLudlum]

Be afraid, everyone be terrified!!!!!

Be terrified!!!!


Actually, GW looks like he's scared and doesn't have a clue what he's talking about.

[RSLudlum]

I am shaking mad.


Mo money, mo money, mo money

Big Worm: "Playing with my money is like playing with my emotions, Smokey" ;)

[Original_Intent]

go fuck yourself you disingenuous ass. Equating Baldwin to Bush - please pull your head out.

I guess Ron Paul could support Bush? I never never seen a more dishonest and outright stupid post on these forums.

[devil21]

I want my 13 minutes back.

[Kap]

I want my 13 minutes back.

That's full of win.

[Seanmc30]

You think ol' George is tired of failure? I mean, can we now safely say that he has been the worst president in the history of the United States?

[Cowlesy]

Woooohooo....6th gear on the Road to Serfdom!!!

[itshappening]

Bush is a puppet , they didnt expect this outrage

[angelatc]

Oh God we're all gonna die!

[georgiapeach]

I'll be watching his general demeanor and non-verbals. I get more information from this behavioral data than I would if I hung on his every word.

He blinked a lot.
What a lying horse's rear end.

[mconder]

I'd take a good religious zealot over any corrupt individual, any day. This is the appeal of Ron Paul and Baldwin, more that any other thing, it's the fact that they are good an honest men.

[angelatc]

I haven't paid much attention to Baldwin but he doesn't come across as a zealot, like Huckabee. My perception is that he honestly has faith.

I don't believe for a minute that Bush gives a rat's ass about any God. That's just another of his tools.

[ClockwiseSpark]

He looked frightened. None of that cocky swagger I'm so accustomed to.

[fedup100]

If they pass that thing he better look frightened because I honestly think the pitchforks are being warmed up.

[Dary]

In his speech, Bush said “Democratic capitalism is the best system ever devised”. Yet for some reason he thinks that we need to become less capitalistic in order to save that system. How does that make any sense?

A good test is those who present government as "helping" (Huckabee/Bush), and those who present government as hindering -Baldwin/Paul.

In regards to helping your fellow man. Don't seem to need faith if you depend on someone else (government) to do the helping.

He doesn't have to make any sense, the dumbed down public will believe anything.

[CurtisLow]

Our dear loser is due to address the nation shortly

I cant even look at that so called man.. I have no respect for him or those who follow him.

[Dary]

Then Chris Dodd comes on and says that the problem was that the regulators were sleeping and didn’t do their jobs.

His solution? More regulators. Maybe this time we can pump the new regulators up with some Red Bull to keep them awake.

[forsmant]

A couple of years of reccession is called a depresion. I thouhght he looked a little scared too. I don't think any of these guys realize what they are doing.

[MsDoodahs]

Yeah, he looked frightened.

And these guys are ALL scared...there is no doubt in my mind - these guys are all beginning to wonder....what if Ron/Mises/Austrians are RIGHT... :eek::eek::eek:

[Liberty Rebellion]

Yeah, he looked frightened.

And these guys are ALL scared...there is no doubt in my mind - these guys are all beginning to wonder....what if Ron/Mises/Austrians are RIGHT... :eek::eek::eek:

That's kind of what I've been thinking to myself. Despite all their grand-ponzi schemes using the markets to get rich while robbing everyone else and creating a one-world empire, their arrogance will ultimately be the destruction of those same schemes. The market is more powerful than them.

[phoenixrising]

good call-ins ...so far anyway!

[RSLudlum]

Yeah, he looked frightened.

And these guys are ALL scared...there is no doubt in my mind - these guys are all beginning to wonder....what if Ron/Mises/Austrians are RIGHT... :eek::eek::eek:

Well, Bernanke seemed to stumble a bit when answering RP's questions at the hearing today. And BTW, I loved RP's off-camera "COINS!!" exclaimation during Bernanke's answer on the Fed's authority. ;)

[westmich4paul]

King George's frightened look was that of oh my god i'll be leaving office as themost hated president in history with approval ratings below zero.

[rprprs]

I'm less worried about what Dubya said than I am about what these two stooges say...

I like the way you think
