US Democratic Senator from New York Charles Schumer attends a Senate Banking Committee hearing with Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson (L) and Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke on Capitol Hill as they urge Congress to swiftly pass a 700-billion-dollar Wall Street bailout, warning the entire US economy was at risk.
Paulsen is lying has ass off.
“Fairness to taxpayers” “Protect the taxpayers” “Market confidence would fall if Congress doesn’t give me the full $700 BILLION” “I cannot qantify the cost to taxpayers at this time.”
“Open Pandora’s Box and do it NOW!” is what the man is saying.
