Same here.

On this very site, I openly opposed Bush bailout at the time, and hoped it would not get through Congress. I thought it was a huge mistake on his part.

I still think these bailouts are a mistake. There is a reason those companies are failing and throwing money at them will not fix that reason. Better to let them fail, let smaller companies come in and fill the empty niche, and help those who are unemployed.

I have no problem with the government helping the unemployed. That would have put money in the hands of the people, and they would have spent it helping to stimulate the economy.

I may be a Liberal when it comes to the environment, human rights and animal rights, but I am still a Fiscal Conservative when it comes to the Federal Government. The smaller the better. When will we get some real Fiscal Conservatives in Washington? Bush wasn’t one, that is for certain.
