Palin "Disappointed" In AIG Bailout
CLEVELAND - Sarah Palin said today she is "disappointed that taxpayers are called upon to bail out another one" in response to the AIG loan by the Federal Reserve.
Before sipping coffee at Karl's Inn at the Bannister's, she said the decision by the Federal Reserve was "understandable but very very disappointing that taxpayers are called upon for another one."
Palin and husband Todd joined 10 diners who were drinking coffee and eating breakfast. She introduced herself to diners as "Sarah" and apologized for interrupting their meal.
It was her first impromptu campaign stop since campaigning independently. She asked if the pool reporters were getting lonely in the back of the plane and invited them to "come on up" to the front. No word yet on whether the campaign will oblige.

Wow, she's a coffee drinker? That changes everything!

Where is the Do-Nothing Democrat Congress and the Do-Nothing Democrat Senate? Oh yea, doing NOTHING!
The problem started with Carter, and feed by Clinton, while being pushed by the Communist ACORN! They have caused the problem we see!
Obama feed himself the 2nd LARGEST PIECE OF THE PIE from FREDDIE and FANNIE in HISTORY!!
Those presidents even was helping the Obama ticket.
Obama and the do-nothing democrats have caused all the problems again!
Hmm interesting post on FOX NEWS. Could all our financial problems be linked to the Clinton administration. Listening to Harry Reid one would think the problem is somehow the result of Republican incompetence. What Reid fails to mention is that he — and 37 other Democratic senators — voted in favor of the final version of Gramm's bill to overturn much of Glass-Steagall. It passed by a 90-to-8 margin in 1999 and was signed into law by President Clinton.
"Out of touch" is a $28,500.00 steak dinner with Hollywood stars on the night the AIG loan is announced, following the Lehman news. Americans are footing the $800 billion debt, and liberals have the AUDACITY to stand in line for a $28,500.00 dinner with barak obama.
Nice grammar there, Emily.
Nice grammar.
Who cares what this gun-toting hockey moron thinks!?!? Why is this evil woman even getting any press? Face it GOP. We know the truth. YOU had control of Congress and YOU were in the White House when the stage was set for this financial disaster. It is the result of YOUR lack of regulation and oversight and YOUR insistence that the government should leave business to its own devices. YOU cannot blame this on the Democratic Party. YOU disgust us.
Moreso, the talk about TAXPAYERS bailing out AIG shows how much she knows. The Federal Reserve is NOT a branch of the govt, it is a private banking institution with govt restrictions, and there is NO taxpayer dollars anywhere in sight of it. a) They bought out AIG to make a profit from getting it at a huge discount, which is the concern with Bear Stearns and b) there hasn't been any taxpayer dollars at the Washington level since Bush gave the surplus away on 01. Instead of teaching creationism in school, why don't you teach how the Federal Reserve was formed?
Who was the de regulator of the financial system over the past few years? Who was the driver to put all americans in homes even, if the preople couldn't afford them? Mcsane and Bush.
Palin feels bad? She doesnt seem to feel bad about the financial problems she left Wassila with. On CNN last nite, ac360, they had a story about how she decided to start building the Wasilla Sports Complex and Wasilla did not even own the land yet! Come to find out the land was already under contract to be sold to someone else. But she decided to start building anyway. The town decided to sue the purchaser of the land, and they lost the suit. The new mayor decided to sue the purchaser and lost the 2nd suit. They ended up paying all of the purchasers legal fees, for two lost law suits, and the guy finally agreed to sell it to Wasilla, for some
crazy amount of money.
Now is this the type of executive expierience that she is bringing to Washington? She is dumber than a tree!
Put it into perspective this economy the McCain says is sound
Middle class worker earning $30000 a year who has lost $6000 dollars for their 401K pension. It will take a little over 2 years to put that money back at the rate of 6% their contribution and 3% employer contribution.
It is gross the watch news commentators like John on CNN cry to sen. Biden about the tax increase the Sen Obama proposes.
The GOP keep cutting taxes at the Federal level requiring the local and states to increase because of federal funding cuts.
America the great country quickly falling from grace with leadership of ignorance and intolerance
