"Does anyone think it’s just a little weird to be stampeded into a $700 billion solution to the worst financial crisis since the Great Depression by the very people who brought us the worst financial crisis since the Great Depression?"
This is the fundamental thing that really bothers me about this bailout package. It makes absolutely no sense at all to allow the Bush administration to ramrod any measure through Congress, let alone one that gives them unparalleled funds and power--the two commodities they are known for abusing. All of a sudden we should trust their judgment? I don't think so.
Herbert's column is well worth the read.
