9. Yes, they do.
Think we're that stupid.

And, they're right about a third of the population.

It's the same old schtick we've seen from this administration for 8 years.

2. is it gonna be the "blow bush" bill dumped by the house or a true Progressive rewrite?
hope the dems dont miss another golden opportunity to offer a great fix for the entire financial system & mess thus helping to propel Obama to the white house.

6. It's mostly the same as yesterday's House bill.
http://www.startribune.com/politics/29930444.html?elr=KArksi8cyaiUgOahccyiUiD3aPc:_Yyc:aUU

==================================================

Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., and GOP Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky unveiled the plan Tuesday. The Senate plan would also raise federal deposit insurance limits to $250,000 from $100,000, as called for by the two presidential nominees only hours earlier.

The move to add a tax legislation — including a set of popular business tax breaks — risked a backlash from House Democrats insisting they be paid for with tax increases elsewhere.
