If a government bailout is necessary, as both parties agreed, here are the differences in the approach:
Dems - try to create jobs, unfreeze the credit markets and stimulate the economy
GOP - give the money to the largest banks and insurers that knew they were screwing up. they'll then give that taxpayer money to their creditors, and not unfreeze the credit markets for Americans. then hide the evidence, exempt GOPpers from prosecution for crimes, and declare the money gone.

There's a debate going on as to whether or not the US Federal Reserve Bank should be audited. Some people think the US taxpayers deserve to know what is happening with their money, and where it went. Some people think it should remain secret. It is not purely partisan, either. There are corrupt Democrats who fear the release of such information, and what it would do to their gravy train. Almost all Republicans oppose the audit, too. So, what happens when Republican Paul and Democrat Grayson propose that the Fed be audited? Who's going to blink first, and who's willing to stick their neck out to protect secrecy?

Why does the main stream media keep calling Lieberman a Democrat? First of all, he isn't. Second of all, he supported the Republican candidate for President. Third, he switches reasons for his actions as often as a Republican:

Ah, those whacky Republicans - now calling for open, armed revolt against the US Government. Good thing it's not treason or anything...
