on the bailout



This is a must read conversation between David Brooks and Gail Collins about the state of the proposed bailout package. 

At one point Brooks (Formerly of the National Review) says if the the republicans block the deal and it backfires, 

"We will enter another Depression, the Republican Party will be blamed and the G.O.P. will cease to exist. 
I’m not exaggerating."

These really are heady times.

"My favorite variation of the latter involves knocking down empty houses, to reduce the supply."
David Brooks-
Bloody brilliant. Bloody stinkin' brilliant in my opinion.
