I got an email from Issa today in which he said he’s voting against the (credit market stabilization) bill.
This prevents any constituent from providing input to this historic piece of legislation; we are ignored.
There are things that need to be in that bill. Aid to the little banks, aid to the almost foreclosed, and unemployment benefits for those who are currently or will be marooned in unemployment for the foreseeable future because on the fiscal trainwreck.
These times are closley reminiscent to those of 1932. FDR came in after 12 years of Republican benign neglect and corruption and had to pull us out of the Great Depression. The Republicans fought him every inch of the way, called him a socialist, and other names. This included Social Security, the RFC (rescued banks), the WPA, CCC, soiul conservation REA, etc, etc. Their grandchildren are now following in grandpa’s footsteps and fighting economic reform. Must be a chromosomal thing!
Issa NOT!
