Valley Congressman Brad Sherman (D-Sherman Oaks) stood his ground on Friday during the second House bailout vote that passed. He, along with the majority, voted no on Monday and he once again voted no on Friday, although that time in the minority. During a session of congress on the night before Friday's vote, he said proponents of the bailout were apparently saying martial law be put in place if the vote didn't go through. "That's what I call fear mongering," Sherman said.

We have a standing army on our soil as of Oct. 1st that is answerable only to still president Bush. Search Naomi Wolf
Its damn near a coup.
Saw this reference on another bailout post...
Newsweek story about which CEOs in this bailout scandal walked away with what. One of the bailed out companies had a $400k company retreat *after* they got their bailout money. Argh.
