'Big Barda' Barney is coming for the Banks


These bailed-out banks are the true criminals of the country. Since they have been bailed out, we are hearing about the big bonus giveaways to execs, parties, and even CEO room decorations. But that was before the Obama Force came into picture.

Now with that power in place, Barney Frank is coming strong for these cretins. It is expected that next week, Big Barda Barney will bring in the heads of major bailed-out banks to testify before his committee. He is demanding bankers to provide Congress with information on how the bailout funds are being used.

I'm know this will be good TV, if the media is allowed in. Barney should get to the bottom of this in no time. I have a feeling they are doing more for themselves than the public. Get 'em Barney

Revolt!


Bush just showed us how he cares about us. By making us bail out greedy ass business men. Why are we saving them, we need to be bailed out! But I'm not the only one upset:

"Companies, like individuals, should be held responsible for their decisions," wrote Jorge from El Paso, Texas. "This buyout does not address the other problems in the pipeline such as personal credit default and market slowdowns in most industries. No new jobs will be created."

"It is time for the financial institutions of this country to be called to the mat. We should be expecting and demanding responsible and ethical business practice, not rewarding it at the expense of taxpayers."


"I'm tired of rewarding institutions and people for the bad decisions they have made," said Dean from Madison, Wis.

"Sure, it will hurt tax payers if/when some of these institutions fail, but perhaps we need to let that happen. We do not need more big government involved in our lives. Enough is enough."


"It's our money! Let these companies die," added Claudio from Plainville, Conn.


And the kicker for me, is the payout the CEOs are getting. This is the most illogical thing I've ever seen. I get that we are trying to save our economy, but we didn't break it, greed did, these CEOs did. If you ask me, they are the true terrorists in our country.
