Bernanke: Bro, I need $700 billion to bail out the financial sector! Otherwise the economy's gonna explode in your face! I need it now!
Congress: Well iono, that's a lot of money.
Bernanke: Come on Bro, we go way back. I know what I'm doing. And when has the fed said it knows what it's doing and it didn't?
Congress: Well there was that one time during the '30s...
Angry Liberal: No Congress! Don't do it! You're only creating a moral hazard for wealthy investment bankers and reconstituting the credit bubble! Surely, a more aggressive fiscal stimulus is the best solution to this crisis!
Bernanke: Shutup peasant. Get back to paying off your adjustable rate mortgages. Oh wait, you can't.
Congress: The Angry Liberal has a point...
Bernanke: *cough* elections *cough*
Congress: Oh, right...
Angry Liberal: No! Congress! Don't do it! Don't you get it? The bailout...
*Congress passes bill*
Angry Liberal: It's a TARP!

i have too much time on my hands

isn't the idea of a fiscal stimulus that you give people free money?
isn't there also some kind of a duck cartoon that warned about free money?

I'm assuming liberals are referring to the masses, and thus wouldn't elects make congress NOT pass the bailout?

that's just cold man, ice cold

@op

The cliche's you use are not really recognizable, I have no idea how to envision it because there are a million action thrillers and all of them are different. If you want to do something people 'get' you should just pick 1 really well known script and edit it with your context that works so much better.
