In an exclusive interview with Newsmax TV, Sen. James Inhofe, R-Okla., blasts the wall street bailout bill known as TARP.  He explains why he's adamantly opposed to approving the allocation of the remaining $350 billion as requested by Barack Obama and approved by President Bush. He notes an unprecedented amount of money was entrusted to an unelected bureaucrat (Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson) with no oversight and Paulson broke his promise to buy damaged assets and bailed out banks instead. Also, hear his reaction to Obama's plan to close the U.S. prison at Guantanamo Bay.
