Why is everyone convinced Bush will come through with TARP?
Seems to me the Repukes can't be trusted--and might propose more Union busting BS disguised as a TARP bailout.

2. If he does ther will be some odorous union busting strings with it
I am sure that is the only way that any repug would "help". if they can't bust the unions they are happy to destroy the economy. And they only have 36 days to do it.

3. I think he wants to codify the bank bailout
. . . by giving up a paltry share out of the Treasury slush fund, they can force Democrats to accept all of the rest of Paulson's arbitrary handouts.

4. I think the bottom line was in Perino's comment last week
She pointed out that the last thing Buxh needed was another million jobs down the drain before he left.
She worded it more artfully of course.

Legacy, legacy.
