Call it socialist all you want but people are pissed about these fat cat CEOs. Wall Street is to blame for putting Dems into office and Marxism creeping into all walks of life.

I look at my IRA and think this was all done by the dems who are now standing in front of cameras asking questions of others. It is beyond an upside down world.

HS. This was done by Greespan and the bankers you are in love with working together to inflate assets until the bubble burst.

Not many but it shows that it’s about 50/50 split between donations to Dems and Reps and some of those who were grilling the CEO’s got donations from them. “Protection Money”

How do these nitwits get elected.

It is pretty safe to say that they get elected because they are a reflection of their various constituencies.

Show trial.

Why is it that every time I see Barney Frank I want to puke?
