Something I wonder about the new bankruptcy bill
I was just thinking about this. Should we tell other people about this bill (who we know aren't democrats) or let them figure it out on their own? I was thinking of telling my dad about the new bill (since he voted for *ugh* W) but then I was thinking of letting him find out the hard way. He never has had trouble with his bills or anything (he's pretty responsible and has a really good job as a civil engineer at TVA). So what do you think? Do you think we should spread the word around or let it come in a "shock and awe" type of thing?

1. tell him about it now. and again when it passes the House. and
again when Bush signs it.
And then do this with every single piece of crap legislation they push.
I am. Especially at work.
Young man at work has a RW Fundie dad. His uncle told him that if you don't vote for Bush, you are out of the family. (After a few months of me, though, the young man didn't vote at all.)
But GUESS WHAT? The young man's fundie dad is upset about SSI and other issues. Good. I keep pushing those buttons.

2. Sounds good
I'll probably wait until Bush signs it. Then that could make them mad. Tell that their dear leader is not letting anybody file for bankruptcy.
I'm sure he'll pass it along to my aunt's (who said they were ashamed of my Kerry/Edwards bumper sticker).
