What Brad Sherman said in the Cspan video:

“The only way they can pass this bill is by creating and sustaining a panic atmosphere. That atmosphere is not justified.” 

“Many of us were told in private conversations that if we voted against this bill on Monday that the sky would fall, the market would drop two or three thousand points the first day, another couple of thousand the second day, and a few members were even told that there would be martial law in America if we voted no.” 

“That’s what I call fear mongering. Unjustified. Proven wrong. We’ve got a week, we’ve got two weeks to write a good bill. The only way to pass a bad bill is to keep the panic pressure on.” 


Everyone should read this.... watch the video..
