Anyone who has gotten any kind of better loan deal has gotten real money — with pending legislation before the committees and before Congress, this is bribery pure and simple.

These ‘Rats are dirty and need to be pursued to the limit.

Conrad has always been a hypocrite. He told North Dakota voters when he first ran for the Senate that he would limit himself to one term if he couldn’t get the Federal budget balanced - a vow promptly forgotten.
Apparently this was not the Angelo Mozilo he knew...
Senator Christopher Dodd (Criminal., Conn.)
Carolyn
In a sane world...
This really stinks. Unfortunately both Conrad and Dodd have lifetime appointments in the senate.
