Re: "Fear makes it sound irrational."

FEAR *works* when it comes to motivating voters....

Re: "massive 1.5 Trillion dollar deficits as far as the eye can see...."

Actually, they are projected to DECLINE each and every year after this one. Down by half by 2013 I believe (and that's BEFORE we even take the serious anti-deficit steps that I know we must take....)

Re: "Bailouts that we cannot afford."

LONG PAST TIME to get serious about REFORMING the rules for financial institutions (it's already longer then a year since the financial crisis hit and Congress hasn't changed a single rule yet) so we can PUT AN END to this whole "too big to fail" blackmail gig that the big institutions can hold over our heads anytime they get into massive trouble.

If we don't get serious about reform it will all happen AGAIN... only the next go-round will be even worse, and we will have a real Great Depression II.
