In his own words “The Vultures came home to roost.” Lloyd Doggett questions Bernanke in Congress about the dangers of adding to the national debt 700 billion dollars as a bailout strategy for failing financial institutions. Judging from how he phrased the question It sounds like Ron Paul may have had some influence on Mr. Doggett.

I am impressed!
I am impressed!
nice to see that others are angry...
hope he doesn't appease easily.
2Chronicles 7:14 If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.
Oh crap! Doggett wants to spend more
Wow, I find it interesting that Democrats like Doggett are using the huge expenditures to justify smaller expenditures, like state-sponsored insurance. Can't these politicians get it through their heads that these programs have to end? The name of the game is now cutting expenditures, not raising them! The taxpayers have been asked to pay for too much. I guess in Washington if you can throw away $700 billion then it's like nothing to ask for $50 million here and $2 billion there.
Register as Republican and Vote for Ron Paul
Doggett is my
Doggett is my representative!! I must say that I was truly impressed with his "chat" with good ole' boy Ben. I don't agree much with Doggett but wow! That was freak'n AWESOME! I'm so glad I wrote him a few days ago about this mess! I feel like he actually listened to me! Can't wait to watch him nail Paulson!
Soundbite of the day...
"The vultures have come home to roost!"

Doggett and Paul vids used on NYC newscast
A local New York city newscast used footage and audio of Dr. Paul and Lloyd Doggett hammering Helicopter Ben from today's joint committee hearing. Way to go Ron and Lloyd! I sent e-mail and called my representative (Doggett) to thank him for actually REPRESENTING his constituency. Sent e-mail and called my senators (Hutchison & Cornyn) warning them that they shouldn't even contemplate voting for such a bail-out. Keep the phone calls and e-mail flying, folks.

Put the phone numbers for Doggett in the main post...
Call his offices. I did...this is what encourages politicians. Tell them you are a Republican, Libertarian, or whatever you are. He is Democrat, but this is how we wake them up.
This is one of the most IMPORTANT things we can do to shift things...now FLOOD his office with calls of support...you have your mission!!!!

That dude needs
a superhero cape with a big RP an the chest for that chewing.
He's a separate superhero
RP is his own and Doggett is his own. Both are fighting the good fight.
Wow!
That was awesome! More of these guys/gals need to stand up and call it like it is. Vultures is right but we ain't dead yet. We still have a little fight left in us.
I just called his office and let them know how much I appreciated him. He needs to hear from his constituents, though. Anyone out there?

I just called to voice my support and
they were very happy to take my call. Get involved America! We know we're screwed, but it ends here, no more freebies.
Yup he was also good
spoke just before Dr. Paul, who was also impressed and justly (with kiddingly) asked he is confused as to who the conservatives and liberals are. Doggett clearly acted like a Ron Paul Democrat!

My husband and I called to
thank him. We let him know that we listened to him on the internet speaking to Bernanke, and told him he was right, and that we hope all of our Congressmen, and women will do the same. We left the message with his staff member, they even took our name, address, and phone number.

What is his offices phone #. Sure I could look it up...but if you post it...then more people can call easily.
This man really deserves a pat on the back to keep encouraging this sort of questioning and behavior.

Go, Mr. Doggett!
Look at this video! Doggett dogs Bernanke! When Helicopter Ben tries to go down a prepared statement path, Doggett interrupts and forces Bernanke to address the issue; time and again Doggett does this!
I'd like to learn more about the Texan Representative! Whoo!
I just called! It felt good
