If allowing our financial and industrial complexes to fail without lifting a finger to intervene is partisan politics, then so be it. And if it's partisan politics to step in to avoid financial collapse from happening, then so be that too. There comes a time when one has to swallow his principles and prevent the ship from sinking. We're much better off now than we were 15 months ago, no thanks to the GOP. If the GOP had it their way, we'd be in a deep depression right now instead of a mild recession.
