"Our policy in this administration -- laws shouldn't bail out lenders, laws shouldn't help speculators."

-- President Bush, May 19, 2008

Today, not so much
What's amazing to me is that the administration seems a little surprised that Congress and the American people are not marching in lockstep with them on this and not fully appreciating the urgency.

Well here's why, in one word: accountability.
It's just embarrassing, but I love the duality of Bush's position: Medical care for the population like every other Western nation in the world? Abject socialism. Bailing out money changers that made bad investments? Vital to the nation's economy.
