Have Jim Cramer and Larry Kudlow hi-jacked DU?
A very LARGE number of people here didn't think the bailout was a great idea. But you wouldn't know that from the REDUNDANT thread topics found on page one.

It's just like watching MSNBC: the most hysterical people will stop you from channel surfing, so damn the opposition, they are too boring.

2. Or sold a bill of goods
by the same media that sold us the Iraq war. Since when are we supposed to believe that MSM is going to tell us the truth?

4. Kind of my point.
This barrage of DU threads just parrot what you get every time you turn to MSM. Oh well, I still enjoy reading the "disenting" opinion :)

3. Funny thing...

Jim Cramer and Larry Kudlow are in general much noisier that Louis Brandeis or Henry Wallace were. If you notice, some of the loudmouths have been posting pretty constantly all day. No one I know has that much free time in this economy. Perhaps some people have trust funds or something.

5. Christ, If People Are Worried About Their 401Ks And Credit Lines To Small Businesses
Why not use the trillions of dollars that was eventually gonna go to the corporate socialists in order to insure against those assets and leave the real criminals to fend for themselves?

8. I know threadstarter. I had to actually put one of them on ignore earlier.
:rant: Yell, scream, blow off some steam if you have to, but then start suggesting something CONSTRUCTIVE! Shees. If you all you can do is drag down DU with your negativity, just go away, people. :rant:

:D

9. Those for it are now very pissed off
If you think that economy could be facing a collapse, you would be more vocal about it too. These are scary times

13. understood, but not the point...
...why start thread after thread after thread ad infinitum? Is the next person's thread adding anything to the conversation that isn't already being discussed in existing threads?

Wait!, I should start a new thread and ask if CNN has hi-jacked DU.
