Why should a liberal Deomocrat support Evan Bayh?

Why wouldn't a liberal support Evan Bayh? He's no John Kerry, but he's still a left-wing extremist hack.

Any Democrat is a left-wing extremist hack, except for the DINOs, right?

A left-wing extremist hack is someone who thinks taxes aren't too high, votes against the Unborn Victims of Violence Act, opposes any kind of federal marriage amendment, and votes against confirming Condi.

You've just described what I would consider a decent moderate Republican.

Bayh also voted for the bankruptcy bill. Not good.

Ugh, that is shameful.

I am very happy with the bill, and I'm no credit card company. It enrages my sense of justice that people don't pay their debts.

They can't pay.  That's what unsecured credit is all about - you pay if you can, and if you can't, big deal, the lender loses.  That's why they can charge 22% interest.

[opebo]

They still have to pay, not just screw people over.

And of course the credit card companies should be able to change the interest rate to whatever they want. That is, whatever was agreed upon by both parties.

So a 25% interest rate seems reasonable to you?

Maybe Al Queda will blow up some of the little Eichmans down at the credit card company.

Senator Kennedy tried to have a homeowner's exemption for people who large medical bills, but it got shot down. Get sick, and lose your house now.

It is amazing that what used to be 'unsecured debt' - basically just trash debt - before the Bill, is now as secure as a Mortgage, and they get 25% interest on it!  That is some sweet lobbying.

[opebo]

Single-payer would be cheaper than our current system and do wonders for our economy and the well-being of American citizens.

No facts, no stats, just nonsense opinion. And it is clearly anti-freedom.

So is using the State to collect private debts.
