I've been suggesting govie bailout will happen for a long time.

Dodd proposed this months ago. Now it's getting more play. Wait a while it will be the big topic of discussion on CNBC and CNN.

Good blog

Just when you thought the people who mismanaged the whole situation for 10 years were going to straighten it out. <G>

How bout that Clint' tax cut, Greenspan easy money, Dem and Pub Congress who sat on their hands and Bush who even took credit. Now Dodd got conn. is gonna make you pay for being responsible.

Dodd reaffirmed a plan to introduce a bill that would combat predatory lending. "There is a difference between a subprime lender and a predator, and I don't want to lose the subprime lender" he said.
+++++++++++

lol! I'd really like to know how he defines the difference.
