I think Barney Frank fragged himself.

In all seriousness, these statements by Frank are damning to him and the Democrats. It casts the financial crisis in a new light of responibility. Bill O'Reilly should be ready to blow a gasket over this on Monday--as should the rest of the country.

“...these statements by Frank are damning to him and the Democrats...”

Kristinn, it’s only “damning” when you have:

a. An actual, real media concerned with doing an impartial job - instead of the democratic socialist hack operatives who currently run it.

b. A public paying attention - our current public has the attention span of an American Idol contestant’s 15 seconds of fame.

c. A majority of the public NOT directly benefitting from the conspiracy...

and

d. An opposition party that has the B*LLS to use the information for what it is - a political WEAPON that should be wielded with brutal, blunt force to drive the enemy to his knees and surrender (like the Dems try to do to us).

As far as I can see, the only option is “e” - none of the above.

Am I wrong?

“I’m pretty good with words..."

That's just priceless. I love it when he says "referee" out three times in a sentence.

Raines cooked the FM books creating losses of $9B (that we know of) to create bonuses for himself .......The Securities and Exchange Commission said Raines broke accounting rules by playing with risky derivatives.

Yet he walked away w/ $90 million dollars, a $26 million parachute PLUS a MONTHLY pension of $116,300 for life.

Raines owns options giving him $5.8 million in net profit after redeeming them, plus another $8.7 million in deferred compensation for his six years at the helm. Raines has already collected $4.87 million in special performance shares this year.

He keeps $5 million of paid-up life insurance. He and his spouse get free medical and dental benefits for life, worth over $1 million.

Raines earned $20 million in salary, bonuses and stock awards (that we know of) in one year.

After he was fired, Raines told the FM board that he’s entitled to get paychecks until next June 22 giving him another $600,000, which triggers a $2,000 monthly raise in his lifetime pension. He also says he’s entitled to disputed options with a gross value of about $5.6 million.

To keep Raines happy within philanthropic circles, Fannie Mae will match Raines’ charitable contributions by $10,000 a year.

Franklin Raines looted and pillaged Fannie Mae

I don`t think there is anything in the video that we already knew. And libs and the lib media have already absolved him of any responsibility for this, so I don`t see how this will change anything.

I believe the Buggering Bolshevik Barney Frank has proved one of our nations founding fathers correct a couple of hundred years later.

Democrats can say anything they want, lie all they want, be as hypocritical as they want, because they KNOW the MSM WILL NOT TOUCH THEM!

We can cry all we want to about it... but until we figure out how to take down the democrat propaganda machine, stuff like this from people like Frank WILL REMAIN COMMONPLACE!!!
