Bush team, Congress negotiate 700-billion-dollar bailout
September 20, 2008 21:26 EDT

WASHINGTON (AP) -- Work continues on a massive government intervention plan to rescue financial institutions by buying up their bad assets.

Treasury officials met with congressional staffers for about two hours on Capitol Hill today. Discussions centered on how the 700-billion-dollar plan would work.

Democrats want to help more strapped borrowers stay in their homes and want to condition the bailout on new limits on pay for executives.

President Bush and Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson conferred by phone this afternoon, gauging how the negotiations were unfolding.

Among the key issues up for negotiation is which financial institutions would be eligible for the help. For instance, could hedge funds and pension funds qualify?

The White House is hoping for a deal by the time markets open Monday. Top lawmakers say they'll push to enact the plan in a matter of days.

As a point of interest: if you started counting now at the rate of one number a second, it would take you more than 31 years to reach a billion.

Bush is a politician, plain and simple. I'm not faulting him. I'm only calling it like it is.

Read this article from the Washington Post.

Women Closest to Bush Are Pro-Choice

By Ann Gerhart

During the 2000 presidential campaign, Barbara Bush said the Republican Party should drop an anti-abortion plank from its national platform.

"Listen to your mama," declared a radio ad aired at the time by an abortion-rights group. "That's a family value we can all agree on."Now, as President Bush readies to announce his choice for a Supreme Court justice, that ad remains one of the only direct references to a rarely-mentioned fact: The women closest to the president support abortion rights. His mother, his wife and one of his most trusted advisors, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, all have stated that they believe Roe v. Wade should not be overturned.

Bush hears daily from social conservatives who urge him to appoint a justice who firmly opposes abortion. If the women in his inner circle speak their minds on this subject in private, he may hear something different....

...Bush prefers to address the issue of abortion in thematic language, speaking of "a culture of life" or "changing hearts." In an interview with Danish television a few days after O'Connor's resignation, he said abortion remained "a genuine philosophical debate, a debate amongst good people -- good, decent, honorable, patriotic Americans who have a difference of opinion."

He said he had "always believed" that abortion "ought to be illegal with the exception of rape, incest, or life of the mother." Then he added, "But look, I'm a realist as well."

Thanks! You can’t pay off debt or wipe out debt by creating more debt. It’s very simple really.

My daughter who working at JC Penny part time while attending college called last night. She not been paid in two weeks, they informed the employee's money was tight, but assure them they be paid and some position will be cut. This is happen more and more!

Amen!

I think my own position on this issue is crystal clear, this is financial ruin and disaster for the entire country. Rather then let these bad debts die a well deserved death and protect the remaining asset value in place (throughout the entire country), the inflationary cycle this ridiculous bailout plan will create will literally explode inflation by flooding the entire economy with even more bogus money.
