Crook v Crook
by Jane on Feb.12, 2009, under Politics
The confrontation yesterday between Barney Frank and his posse at the Financial Services Committee was a sight to see. In this corner we have the guy who along with Chris Dodd at the Banking committee repeatedly refused to regulate Fannie and Freddie . That refusal to act pretty much forced banks into oblivion via the subprime mortgage mess. In the other corner, the Presidents of those banks who while losing assets in record speed were lining their pockets even faster.
It was very hard to decide which set of crooks to root for but I finally made up my mind. Until we find some way to get testimony under oath from Barney Frank, Chris Dodd, John Murtha, Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid and the rest of the elected officials who have become rich beyond expectation on an elected official’s salary, I’m going with the bankers.
Tough choice, I admit.
