IVA: House Bailout OK ‘Disastrous’
As you are aware by now, the House of Representatives passed the gargantuan $700 billion plus bailout bill today. Idaho's Rep. Bill Sali voted against this taxpayer-funded bailout for the second time this week, and for the second time this week, Rep. Mike Simpson voted for it. Sali, correctly in my view, tagged this bill a "colossal mistake" which will saddle our grandchildren with a $700 billion price tag, all to buy toxic mortgages that smart private money will not touch with the proverbial ten-foot pole. This bill is so bad for taxpayers that even Sali's Democrat challenger, Walt Minnick, echoed Sali's principled opposition to this bill and came out against it today, again for the second time this week/Bryan Fischer, IVA.
