When a bunch of hardcore House Republican conservatives denounced "mark-to-market" accounting during the debate on the bailout bill on Monday, I was disposed to dismiss the gambit as just another example of free market ideologues carrying water for the corporate sector. But now that I see that suspending "mark-to-market" or "fair value" accounting is also part of an alternative fix-it plan proposed by liberal Democrat Peter DeFazio, D-Ore., and the SEC is making noises about letting financial i ...

House Financial Services Committee Chairman Barney Frank, D-Mass., accused House Republicans of defeating Round 1 of the bailout bill. A major item that Frank didn’t mention is that 12 Democratic members of his House Financial Services Committee voted with 83 other Democrats against the bill. Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Majority Leader Steny Hoyer weren’t working too hard to twist arms for passage. If 12 Democratic members of the House Financial Services Committee thought the bill to bail out the financial services industry was bad, maybe it was. If it looks like a political stunt and smells like a political stunt ... ... Source: www.bignewsnetwork.com --- 8 days ago

Ambinder sez : "In any event, both Obama and McCain seem to have settled into a Bipartisan groove, working, separately, but -- finally -- in the same direction." Er, finally? If you check their public statements, neither candidate has ever really disagreed about the bill. In fact, both candidates offered the same criticisms of the bailout bill. When McCain dramatically swept into Washington, he didn't have anything to say at the conference table because he had the same concerns as the Dems . For better or worse, Obama has resisted the urge to follow his more liberal inclinations to make this bill more progressive by addressing the foreclosures at the root of the problem and offering a adjunct stimulus package, and McCain has resisted the urge to follow his rightward inclinations by outwardly opposing the bill, like the conservative House GOP. McCain's grandstanding, however, gave the House Republicans traction to defeat the bill yesterday, making him look a silly in retrospect. That's why his attacks against Obama and the Democrats have fallen so flat today. Nonetheless, both candidates have been on the same page on the bailout bill for a while, which is part of why the economics portions of last week's debate was so tepid -- I recall Obama at one point saying something like, "we haven't seen the text yet," a Bipartisan excuse not to be specific. The two candidates have different overall economic narratives, both about what the e ... Find more results for Bipartisan on RSSMicro.com |

From Sam Stanton: A rash of political vandalism in the region is sparking a joint Democratic-Republican press conference today where political leaders plan to ask for a calming in the political wars. Numerous people have reported having political signs stolen, damaged or defaced in recent weeks, but the vandalism may have peaked in the Sacramento area over the weekend, when the chairman of the Sacramento Democratic Party had his garage door spray-painted with the slogan, "Obama's ship of fools." (right photo) Greg Larkins said he left his home in the north area Saturday morning and returned Sunday to find the vandalism. He had had an Obama sign in his front yard. He said he and county Republican Chairman Craig MacGlashan will hold a press conference this afternoon to denounce such incidents. Elections officials say they have gotten calls about varied acts of vandalism and sign theft, and in Del Norte County last week things got even worse: a bloody deerskin was stuffed through the mail slot of the Democratic Party headquarters in Crescent City, said Dan Ashburn, a 46-year-old volunteer at the office. "We just cleaned it up and went back to work ... ," Ashburn said. "It was a terrible waste of food, I'll tell you that." ...
