Have to support those big fat bonuses going to the wealthy people.

2. Cantor is a Santorum wannabe with a squeaky-toy voice.

I can't stand to listen to the wimpy asswipe.

4. by all means, never get remotely close to answering the question

it only makes the conservative far right angrier and they are already down on this guy as it is - and Cornyn and the rest. Amazing that he never seems to make a stand for something that can be used against him in a TV ad - which I sure hope is used against him in a TV ad. hahahah

Short Term Profits for Wall Street as long as someone else pays later.

It was a Hit on the Federal Reserve by Wall Street, allowed by Politicians by doing “No Do Diligence” or looking the other way. Tax Payers now get stuck with the bill and Wall Street in all it’s arrogance complain they are not making enough money. Oh Yea, blame the current state of affairs on Obama and the Democrats and we need another bubble ASAP, the Republican way of doing business.

7. "Nothing good comes out of government owning businesses..."

And, y'know what Eddie, nothing good comes out of businesses owning the government either!

Good does come out of regulation and suppressing monopolies (or businesses "to big to fail").
