Elections aside, I am so disgusted with Congress. I'm ready for them all to go home and for us to start fresh. Every day a bipartisan group of them come to the microphone and say "we're close, we're close". Now the new goal is to have it "ready for the floor" in ime for the opening of the foreign markets. Instead of wasting time saying "we're close" why don't they just get it done.

I am especially disappointed in Nancy Pelosi. She promised "tough new leadership" and it's not happening. And either Obama or McCain could have demonstrated leadership instead of just talking about it. Usually in a crisis, a leader will step forward and get the support of others. I have a feeling these two were behind closed doors with their parties moaning how this was going to cost them the election.

And I understand that the newest plan calls for an "oversight committee"... We all know what happens when things get done by Committee. And everyone knows that committees have to have staff to get the work done. Ah, the sound of new jobs being created in Washington.
