First, Kanjorski is a long-serving Democrat in the House, so his district should have little bearing on his legislation proposals or his legitimacy. And besides, I'm from the Scranton area, Kanjorski's district, and object to your characterization. Nearly every district in America, except for large cities, has a "backwoods" because a lot of Americans are uncultured and unexposed to the rest of the world or even their own country. Second, I'd much rather strong legislation be put in place to guard against US take-overs of financial institutions. It's a sad day when we have to force businesses to act ethically. It's something I've blogged about. http://laidofflawyer.wordpress.com/2009/09/16/new-normal/ I'm all for Geithner's New normal because I don't understand the rational for allowing the business world to operate without regard to others within its reach. Maybe if businesses re-embraced some form of social responsibility for workers, perhaps we wouldn't have to have government take-overs.
Can't wait to see this film. Unfortunately, I'm not able to attend a free viewing tonight. Guess I'll have to shell out the $12. Hope Moore has returned to his "Bowling" & "Roger & Me" quality.
Awesome!! I was laughing out loud at the excellent points she makes. I've been so frustrated by Bank of America for over six years already. I've started blogging about this for awhile now. Sign me up in the Debtor's Revolt. http://laidofflawyer.wordpress.com/2009/09/01/what-is-this-sarcasm/
