http://talkingpointsmemo.com/archives/218341.php There will be a bums rush just like when Bush tried to pressure Congress into passing the Protect America Act. They will wait until right before the election and try and jam the Democratic party up and say that if they do nothing then we are all going to Hell in a hand basket. There will be nothing good about this plan unless you are a big banking and insurance CEO. What a surprise! ... We're in a crisis which gives the Bush Administration an opportunity to push legislation through Congress with little or no debate. In six months from now, how many "little surprises" are we going to find out about? Gifts to the industry or Bush Administration that got inserted into a bill that was approved without being read -- let alone, thoroughly examined -- by most members of Congress. I agree something needs to be done but do we really trust the people that brought us this mess to develop an optimal solution?

Yes. Email your congressman that this is unacceptable, and that nothing that requires no oversight and forbids court review would be acceptable, especially not something that adds even more in costs.
