Bernie Sanders on the bill that passed

[ProSense]

“While the bailout package that we are dealing with tonight is far better than the absurd proposal originally presented to us by the Bush administration, which if you can believe it would have given the secretary of the Treasury a blank check to spend $700 billion in any way that he wanted without any transparency, without any oversight, and without any judicial review. This bill ... is still short of where we should be,” Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) said.

5. Well now, if you were in the Senate, someone from Wall Street

would be doing MUCH more with your dick at this very moment. I'm betting a lot of the Senators are getting "serviced" tonight free of charge. After all, it's the least they could do. $700B buys a lot of BJs.

6. This Friday's Brunch With Bernie should be interesting.
