Great footage of your tax money at the office,, from 2004,, helps clarify some of that odoriferous gas escaping from D.C.

Isn't it nice to have video records of Congress.
I would encourage you to send these "sound bites" to your representatives and ask what video real number their position statement is on???

Quite the web the dims have woven!!:mad:
Is it just me, or does Barney Frank sound like Bill Murray in Caddyshack?
Bill Murray's character was tons smarter I'm afraid.

Another fine example of the emperors new clothes...
Who knows, maybe that's why 94 democrats jumped the fence and refused to vote for the bailout.

You ever see the Tide commercial with the stain on the shirt drowning out the voice of the person speaking in the commercial? He sounds like the stain.
Wow...just....WOW !!!! :eek:
The one thing I did notice, (please don't take this comment in a racial context), but every Dem that spoke on that sound bite, except for Rep. Franks, was Black.
Funny that the Chairman and CEO of Fannie Mae, Mr. Franklin Raines, is Black as well.
I'm just saying.....:munchin
Sdiver,
I appreciate the sensitivity with which approach the issue of race. The New York Times article to which JJ provided the link suggests that the intent of the Clinton administration to get Fannie and Freddie to issue subprime loans was so that Blacks would have an opportunity to get home loans for which they wouldn't otherwise qualify. (Why not an education program where individuals can learn how to improve their credit over time?)
What ever else the intent of the Clinton administration and the Democratic party, it was politics as usual in that the Democrats were offering a financial incentive--a bribe--to African Americans for long term political allegiance.
The attempt to make an issue of good governance and accountability an issue of race is ironic. The regulator and the Republicans were not questioning the program per se, they're asking about how it should be regulated. Had the Democrats allowed the hearings to proceed, who is to say that the regulators would not have made the program more stable and therefore more beneficial politically?
While the video is damning in and of itself, the documents located here (http://www.professionalsoldiers.com/forums/showpost.php?p=226244&postcount=19) take Representative Frank's stonewalling back to 2003.

You could not have said it better....

Barney Fife IS a stain.
