Oddly enough, in their piece on the local delegations' votes and reactions, the Seattle post-Intelligencer published Dave Reichart (formerly King County Sheriff) saying
It's more important to get this legislation right than to act in haste. Panic on Wall Street brought us to this point, and we cannot let panic in Congress push through a remedy that is worse than the illness. Instead of a $700 billion blank check, we need a comprehensive package that helps Wall Street recover with more private capital, not taxpayer dollars; that holds accountable the bad actors who contributed to this crisis; and that enforces existing laws while modernizing outdated ones.and then published a counter-opinion by the woman challenging him for his seat! They published no other statements by political opponents of sitting congresscritters.
Well, they never claimed to be "Fair and Balanced"...
EDIT: Today's (September 30th) dead-tree edition of the Post-Intelliegncer omitted the equal-time statement by Dave Reichart's opponent.
