Re-Writing My Blog

I was all set to talk about tax exemptions for churches today when the House Republicans garroted the stock market. Goodness.

My thinking is that the Democrats should abandon any Republican support for the time being and just craft a good Democratic bill and then dare the Republicans to vote against it. A couple of days of the market getting hammered will put the Republicans under enormous pressure from their donor base to pass a good bill - one that doesn't include $700 billion in handouts to speculators and incompetent CEO's.
