but lawmakers struggled to understand the agency’s views.

You picked up on that too? Good for you. So did I.

It jumps from the page of the NY Slimes article, and immediately comes across as disingenuous garbage and evil "spin."

The Democrats knew exactly what the ratings agencies were saying. So did the NY Slimes.

Now that the blood is on the floor, the Democrats are running for cover. Our ship is aground, and the Democrat-manned crew took to the life boats before the passengers could even get off.

This has nothing to do with the article, just your pic......I've always wondered who in the world that back person is in the pic you posted.
I mean, is that a "transgendered" person? I hate to be so crass but dang.

How would one go about investigating these leaders dealings with their market portfolios AFTER they spoke with the S&P.

Would they be selling off stuff or moving stuff..based on insider trading?

Via the bailouts. Now they can live off the 100’s of billions of dollars it will take to live comfortably when the dollar is worth nearly nothing. Oh, and the Union and Federal pensions are covered for a few more years.

They’ve known this was coming for decades but didn’t have control over the House, Senate and the Presidency to do it. They also thought the new Health Care Bill would bring in trillions for them to play with but didn’t understand the details of the 3,000 page bill. Instead of having trillions more, they put us trillions more in dept.
