I thought that this piece by CNN’s Campbell Brown hits the bail-out nail squarely on its overinflated head.
I know everyone is screaming about how urgent this crisis is and that action must be taken immediately.
But I love and live by former Supreme Court Justice Brandeis’ great quote: “Sunshine is the best disinfectant.”
What we need is scrutiny and debate. If it has to happen quickly, then do it fast, but without grandstanding or political posturing.
We need serious scrutiny and debate, and that should happen whether we are talking about a giant piece of legislation that is going to affect us all, or whether we are talking about presidential and vice presidential candidates.
Add me to your reader!
