…even when Barbara Boxer or Chris Dodd insist otherwise.

Exit question: is, like, the Senate too big to fail, I wonder…?

    Is a kamakazi Senate too big to fail?

  2. smitty says:

    How can you ask that of the Senate without implicitly asking after the whole Constitution?
    I suggest, on the contrary, that the genius of the Constitution shall stand revealed in November,
    as the two-year electoral frequency of the House is leveraged to ATFQ:
    “What if the electorate failed in 2008?”

  3. JD says:

    They really do think we are that dumb. They are again counting on the MSM to provide cover for them.

  4. JHo says:

    Both of those are true statement, JD, but perhaps the greater truth is that they really are that apathetic. And corrupt.

    We’re about to see a kind of term limit but those “termed out” in five months will just go back home fat and happy while the place crumbles.

  5. mojo says:

    Oh, come on, you winger! You’re trying to tell me that Chris Dodd – THE Chris Dodd, “Mr. Probity” himself, would try and pull a fast one at the behest of some shady cabal of bankers and credit firms?

    And then Babs “Pure GENIUS!” Boxer would help him hide it?

    Pu-leeese!

  6. JD says:

    JHo – Too bad the media does not have to answer at the ballot box.

    Republicans have worked for months to weaken and delay the legislation, along with Wall Street and banking interests whose profits are threatened by reform.*
