Detroit is Screwed, Now!

Ten Republican senators, all of whom are either retiring or who were fired by the voters, will vote on the Detroit bailout.

Most will probably have no sympathy for anyone else who is losing their job. Two of them on the Banking Committee couldn't take time out of polishing their resumes to attend the hearing.

Look for most of them to cast a vote of "Fuck me? Well, fuck you" in order to punish the unions for supporting Barack Obama and for supporting their opponents.

Update: Some are thinking that Republicans are actively trying to wreck the economy in order to make things so bad that Obama will fail as president. I wish I could say I was shocked, but I am not. I would not be surprised one bit to learn that Republicans would drag this country down into the gutter if they could eke out an iota of advantage from that. It has been clear for many years now that there are a lot of Republicans who are loyal only to their party and to their lust for power.

They do not give a damn about this nation or its people and they never will.
