   Why do Kiran and John seem to love Ron Paul? He talks a lot but seldom says anything that makes any sense. He is not an expert in business or economics. Historically bank regulation has worked. Last year's mess happened after years of deregulation.

   From Kathie-

   "Wall Street and the Banks will manipulate and circumvent these intrusions and guess who will suffer."

   Intrusions = regulations, no?

   Your very own position states that Wall Street and the Banks will bend over backwards to circumvent these regulations and cause us to suffer. And your solution is to eliminate the regulations and leave the door wide open? That, somehow, when they see the open door they'll develop a conscience, set aside their greed, and operate in more responsible manner?

   Using that approach, I suggest we decriminalize murder and wait for the murder rates to plummet.

   The banks are getting off free. They should not get govt aid nor should they get interest free money.

   The banks should be banks and not investment companies.

   The bankers should not work in govt. Nor should govt employees work in lobbying firms.

   EVERY financial problem in this country has been caused by banks the safekeepr of peoples' monies.

   Thanks, Kiran, for asking Ron Paul's opinion on the bailout of Wall Street and the Banks. He is so right, the Federal Reserve keeps interfering with markets and now we are in this mess where it has not helped main street, and at last, main street is finally speaking out. So what's the answer from Government: same old, same old! MORE PROPOSED REGULATIONS and INTERFERENCE from the Government. Wall Street and the Banks will manipulate and circumvent these intrusions and guess who will suffer. The wage earner, the taxpayer, middle America.

   Thanks, Kiran, for having Dr. Paul on your show. Without his voice of reason and truth on the airwaves, we'd only hear the same old song and dance.

   I don't know if the whole world knows but recently the United States government issued an apology to all Native Americans. I am surprised that Limbaugh didn't have some thing to say about it. I am a Hoopa Tribal Member, from Hoopa California and I wish that some news agency would deem my ethnic group worthy of news coverage. You always here things about Latino's, African American's, but never about Native American's.

   It is obvious that Carol Costelo has never listened to Limbaugh and does not have a clue as to why he has such an audience. Listeners favor talk radio because they find someone who agrees with their point of view. Talk show hosts seldom change anyone's mind about what they believe. They merely confirm what the listener already believes. The listeners reaction is "ah! ha! someone finally gets it. The typical listener who is leaning to the left will not listen for very long before returning to MSNBC, etc. You are so off base in your analysis about why the talk shows are so popular. Your idiology is so far left that you don't have a clue as to what makes we Limbaugh listeners tick.
