Anyone who has gotten any kind of better loan deal has gotten real money — with pending legislation before the committees and before Congress, this is bribery pure and simple. It may be hard to prove due to all the variations in loan rates, etc (who determines what rates they “would have gotten” without the sweetheart deals) but anyone knows that even a few tenths of a percent make a sizable difference in how much is paid over the life of a loan.
These ‘Rats are dirty and need to be pursued to the limit.

“I did not think for one moment - and no one ever suggested to me - that I was getting preferential treatment.”
Please please tell me that someone from the DoJ is pursuing this. Nothing would please me more than seeing that sanctiminious gaseous President-Bush-hating hypocrite Dodd marched out of his office in handcuffs!
