The measure needs 218 votes for passage. Democrats voted 141 to 94 in favor of the plan, while Republicans voted 65 to 133 against. Republicans, what are you doing? back and forth several times.

Those Republicans are voting against moral hazard, and this is good.

Good move, the party of Lincoln, Teddy Roosevelt, and Reagan is dumping George. W. Bush & friends, and going back to its root. What the market needs is fairness, trust, and a system that reward success but also punish failures,such a socialist style bailout betrays the basic principle of capitalist system and will only make the matter much worse in the future

All the leaders in the democrat countries can't have a permanent job; they have to reapply every couple of years; and some only can reapply once. Of course, China is an exception -- Chinese leader may hold it as a permanent job.

This thing still needs to be dealt with, from the bottom up, not the top down. Pumping so much money to Wall Street with borrowed money will encourage corruption, greed, unfairness and failures.

That's Obama's language! If there is not better solution, the price has to be paid, as long as the taxpayer's interest is protected.

Tax payers interests are NOT going to be protected by purchasing bad debt from banks.

Read what? The bad debt? I don't think it needs much brain to think through: Investors find the debts toxic!
