Richard Shelby actually said...

"I have argued myself that any efforts to fix our financial system should begin with an evaluation of what exactly went wrong."

"Based on current projections and absent any catastrophic home price decline, FHA will not need to ask Congress and the American taxpayer for extraordinary assistance. There is no need for any bailout."

"This is only delaying their funeral."

"And if I had five GM or Ford plants in my state I would oppose this bailout."
