Reply #2: This is what Obama should be doing and what DUers should be doing is [View All]

[change_notfinetuning]

watching the full half hour. It should be required viewing. I may not post often, but I read DU daily. I know that DUers are good people who want what is best for the people of the United States, and future generations. I was a big Obama supporter, but speeches are not actions. With all due respect, when you are done shaking your pompoms yelling yourself hoarse in support of Obama, think about the good all of this money going to prop up the financial rascals could be doing if it weren't being squandered on the slow motion deaths of these institutions. It's time for euthanasia on Wall Street because the Geithner/Summers way is billioning and trillioning us to death. Biting the bullet the way Stiglitz says is the only solution. Every additional dollar spent in this taxpayer torture of a bailout is a dollar that won't be spent on what we all know is needed. And for what? To save the people who turned these institutions into gambling casinos? And to add insult to injury, this is our one and only chance for single payer health care, and our guy is going to bury it.

Sorry, but I'm seeing a lot of fine tuning, and not much change!
