re: #119 Killgore Trout

Well, I think what they advocating is fundamentally flawed. The biggest mistake of this whole mess was letting Lehman Brothers fail. Repeating that mistake another 12 times by ending bailouts to other mega banks would be catastrophic. Unfortunately the government has to do something and any responsible leader would be doing the same thing. The Tea Party philosophy is popular among Republicans and that’s not a good sign.

Ah but you are missing the point .. the Tea Party represents the right beginning to organize - albeit rag taggedly but nonetheless people that normally sit in their climate controlled homes watching CSI are pulling out the Magic Markers and making signs and getting out and protesting. If they do that, they are likely to vote ,… and that dear Kilgore scares the hell out of the left.
