I’m willing to bet that Fannie Mae and Freddy Mac bonuses were dished out with the understanding that a substantial political donation was expected to be given to Dodd, Frank, Zerobama and other Democrat candidates. It would be interesting if someone could pull a list of the people who got bonuses, the amounts and then a list of the political donations these people made.
If it were the other way around, it would happen.
Yes it would be great if someone on the (cough) GOP side had some nads to bring this about. They don't represent anyone. They think only of their political future, not America's future.
The media do profoundly in-depth analyses of any conservative/Republican scandal, and milk out every detail day by day by day.
Liberal/Democrat scandals are treated in a quick “there we covered it” pro forma and then dropped.
But I don’t know if we would find a one-to-one correlation between Fannie bonuses and political donations. The ONE thing these people are good at is corruption and covering up the truth.
