Ms. Owl: The rich need the money! Don't you know how expensive it is to lead a rich lifestyle?I'm watching Pat Buchanan on my new favorite show, Rachel Maddow. He's lays it out for any Democrats not yet knowing how they are getting creamed by the Bush-Paulson panic.
Basically, if there is no deal along the terms of what the conservative Republicans want, then it's the Democrats fault after the markets vote with their feet by going on a credit strike while the stock market tanks. If the Democrats pass their own deal with Bush without the right-wing Republicans, then it's the fault of the Democrats for fleecing the taxpayer. If the Democrats go along, then all possibility for progressive reform is foreclosed for years, while the rich can go back to their favorite pastime of drinking money from fire hoses.
