The fingerpointing begins

Posted by: Sister Toldjah on March 18, 2009 at 7:19 pm

Chris Dodd: I was against the AIG bonuses but Treasury forced me (right!) to insert the bonus loophole into the stimulus package no one had time to read.

The rant of the day goes to Shep Smith, who absolutely unloaded on the sanctimonious hypocrites in Congress who are outraged now for something they themselves let happen (via Hot Air):

Meanwhile, Barney Frank continues to demonstrate what an a**hole he is by asking for the names of the AIG employees who are not returning their bonuses, and saying he can’t guarantee confidentiality, in spite of death threats against AIG employees.

When will this man be held to account? Will he ever be? Why the hell is is that most of the Democrats whose hands were all over our economic meltdown are still in DC while most of the Republicans who tried to do something about it were defeated last year?!

  1. Dang Shep, tell us how you REALLY feel. I wish more journalists were like this, maybe the truth about what the democrats have done and are doing would finally come out.

    I don’t think he will be, at least not anytime soon. The “dumbing down” of America continues. If the taxpayers had any idea about the REAL hand that democrats had in our current economic mess, Obama wouldn’t be sitting in the White House right now.

    It will take time, but word will get out about the dems and Obama. Obama’s idiotic plan to charge vets for their care after being wounded is a good example. There will be more incidents that even our one party media won’t be able to ignore and that will do him in. Unfortunately, I do not know if it will be in four years, but it will happen.

    I only hope its not a 9/11 type failure that causes this “realization”.

    Have you seen the bigger piggies
    In their starched white shirts
    You will find the bigger piggies
    Stirring up the dirt
    And they always have clean shirts to play around in.

    And in their styes with all their backing
    They don’t care what goes on around
    And in their eyes there’s something lacking
    What they need’s a damm good whacking.

    Yeah, everywhere there’s lots of piggies
    Playing piggy pranks
    And you can see them on their trotters
    Down at the piggy banks
    Paying piggy thanks
    To thee pig brother

    You’re starting to sound like me. :d

    The more swine like Frank and Dodd try to dance around it, the more it will become apparent to even the most lackadaisical voter who it was who really created this mess. It’s up to us to educate them.

    Breaking News: Dodd Says loophole that protects AIG Bonuses added per request of the Obama administration. The video is about a fifth of the way down.

    Obama should take full and direct responsibility for this mess.

    “If the taxpayers had any idea about the REAL hand that democrats had in our current economic mess, Obama wouldn’t be sitting in the White House right now.”

    Dang, NC Cop, if the taxpayers had a clue about anything McCain wouldn’t have been running, and that grand building on the mall that houses Congress wouldn’t be a pigsty, either.

  8. Russ says:

    By threating to put heavy taxes on the Bonuses is Congress admitting high taxes are in fact a tool of punishment

    Chris Dodd says: “OWWWW- my arm, my arm, pain, torture!” (From being twisted to insert the bonus loophole.)

  10. Nina says:

    Shep is an a**hole too. It’s because of people like him screaming at the democratic created katrina that we have another a**hole in the white house.

  11. Mwalimu Daudi says:

    I agree with Nina. I always point to Screamin’ Shep whenever lefties start complaining about Fox.

    Fox is biased left – just not as bad as the rest of the media.
