/p> p> NOT DOING ANYTHING? br> Re: John Berlau's Doing Something? : /p> p>I haven't done cartwheels since the U.S. Hockey Team won the Olympics in 1980. Today is another new day for Americans. The Bush-Reid-Pelosi combine of corruption and incompetence is over. My gratitude is to the patriots in the House of Representatives and their constituents who let them know how important this vote was. God Bless America! br> -- Jack Hughes br> Chicago, Illinois /p> p> The reasons to forgo the bailout of the financial institutions are myriad, as the excellent article by Mr. Berlau enumerated, but the numerous Democrats, and a good proportion of the Republicans, some RINO and some tried and true, voted for the objectionable and odious bill. Fortunately for the tax-paying citizens, once again the Dems took square aim at derailing Senator McCain's presidential aspirations and shot themselves in the foot. Maybe as they recover, Congress will hear the outcry of the people and reconsider putting the bailout on the backs of the voting public. br> -- Ira M. Kessel
