Libertarians Going After TARP Supporters

The Chairman of the national Libertarian Party says his party will challenge nearly 100 members of Congress this November that voted for the 2008 bank bailout.

“Few acts of Congress have evoked as much fear, ire, disgust, and disapproval from Americans as the 2008 TARP banker bailouts, passed with bipartisan support in Congress, and signed into law by Republican President George W. Bush,” said Mark Hinkle in a statement released on Friday.

According to Hinkle, polls show that about a dozen TARP-supporting incumbents are in vulnerable positions this fall.
