    Leading Banking Panel Senators Reject Bailout Plan
    Tuesday, September 23, 2008

    WASHINGTON — Leading senators of both parties are expressing strong reservations about the administration’s financial bailout plan despite pleas from the treasury secretary and Federal Reserve chairman for quick passage.

    Sen. Chris Dodd, a Connecticut Democrat, said on Tuesday, “What they have sent us is not acceptable.”

    Sen. Richard Shelby, an Alabama Republican, said, “We have got to look at some alternatives.”

    The response came after Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke bluntly warned reluctant lawmakers they risk a recession with higher unemployment and increased home foreclosures if they fail to pass the Bush administration’s $700 billion plan to bail out the financial industry.

    I have to wonder if the Dem leadership truly believes that they can hang this around GW’s neck?? Seems to me Chris Dodd is one of the reasons we are in the mess we are in and he really should shut his lying mouth. – Lorica

    Dodd should just shut the H up and crawl back into his liquor cabinet. He’s one of the reasons this mess happened in the first place. x(

    They’re going to try to drag this out until election day just so they can blame you-know-who.

    Palin Syrah: Wine Drinkers Balk at a Chilean Wine With Hints of Alaska

    An organic wine from Chile has oenophiles in San Francisco turning up their noses. But there’s nothing wrong with the wine. It’s the name that bothers them:

    Palin Syrah.

    “Before McCain made his announcement it was selling very well, because it’s an affordable wine and it’s from South America” Guillou said. “Then he made his announcement and we hear people making comments constantly about the wine.”

    Riiiiiiiiiiiiiight. So should we boycott Rice-a-Roni: The San Francisco treat?!?!? ;)
