Look. A bailout where the money is return with a small profit is a darn good deal in comparison to a bailout with a complete loss of the taxpayer funds. But am I for bailouts? Hell no, in almost all cases. Obama made a mistake giving any money to GM or Chrysler. I wouldn't have done it. Again, however, the point you tried to make in your post is that Obama is a socialist for doing it. I was simply pointing out that BOTH GOP and Dem Presidents and Congressmen have done bailouts. So if you believe Obama is a Socialist for doing bailouts, then to be fair, you have to call your own Republican Party Socialist as well. Ready to admit that your party is socialist too? Or would you rather condemn both parties for socialist bailouts like I do?
