Bush already believes that he has stuck the next administration with no good choices in Iraq and that the next administration will have to follow Bush's policies to the bitter end. That alone shows how little imagination GW has. McCain might fall for that, but Not Obama.... Now George, and his neo-conservative homies, intend the same thing for the countries financial system. Leave the next administration with a new system of corporate welfare that is exempt from oversight and which has too much momentum to handle. The Neo-cons may not have a very reliable view of reality, but they sure know how to shove their snouts up to the public trough when the money gets poured in.

Here's hoping the blank-check bill never gets passed by Congress. I'd rather watch the world burn. Well spoken, greg. Here’s hoping the blank-check bill never gets passed by Congress.
