It’s never bad to read Callahan’s Diary. Here is Bill’s latest post on a proposal to set up a Trust that could handle the mortgage crisis on a Federal level. Bill always calls us to think and act. Form opinions. Call our representatives and meet with our neighbors and discuss issues. I’ve been feeling for a year now that until we take control back by letting our voices be heard on all sorts of issues, we will still be unhappy with the results we get.
This means on City issues and County issues (Convention Center/Med Mart, for example), and Federal issues. Like the Bailout. Which is really my key point and reason for writing. Pat Buchanan of all people, expressed an opinion on MSNBC a few minutes ago that I can’t help but agree with. They were discussing the Bailout and will it pass, what form it will take, how will Rep. and Dem. Senators vote? Our Senators are not falling in line, at least not automatically. Voinovich says (according to WKYC and Tom Beres) that he’s unhappy still, with how it is written and is still undecided on how he will vote. Sherrod Brown says he is very unhappy with it and may not vote for it at all. Above is link to text of the Bernanke/Paulson proposal. Here is the Democratic Response. Senate Banking Committeecomments on it. For that matter, you can go to the front page of any msm paper and get as much info as you want. It would be easy to be on overload, if it weren’t so important.
One thing seems to be sure. We are getting down to the wire, and Senators are going to be making up their minds. Which is why, no matter what you think about The Bailout, now is the time to call your Senators. I called earlier this week, even before I knew how I felt about all the details. I’m going to call again tomorrow. They can’t hear from us enough, which is pretty much what Pat Buchanan said.
So you don’t have to look this information up, here is how you can reach them:
