That's what I'm thinking...I find it strange that for all of the whining that people on the left did when they blamed Bush and republicans for the fed LOANING money to investment firms(something that they don't have control over)...that the democrats are the only ones actually trying to bail out the banks by GIVING them money...where's the outrage?
