Death to Detroit

A quick thought on bailouts.

Yesterday the Republicans in the Senate shut down a bailout for Detroit because union workers wouldn't agree to a massive pay cut in their previously negotiated contract.

Republicans didn't demand that upper management, in either the financial bailout or this one, take a pay cut or even stop giving themselves bonuses.

Apparently Republicans think that the little guys should take a bath so that their friends don't lose their penthouses.

I've got a word for this, reprehensible. And I've got a word for Congressional Republicans, assholes.
