Wow must be big, the retards needed 5 people to write the story.
Of course, it's not Cox's fault, it not McCains fault, it's not Obama's fault, it's not the banks fault, it's not the lenders fault, it's not the SEC's fault, it's not Bush's fault, it's not Congresses fault or anyone in government leadership....
Sheesh...What a bunch of freaking losers.
The reality is, if these people had an ounce of respect between them, they or most all of them would resign on the spot.
That would be like saying the President has no right to fire the Secretary of Defense or anyone else he appoints. I remember when Nixon got in trouble politically for firing the Attorney General but he could still legally fire the man!
I'd stand with Cox here. He recently stopping -- abeit temporarily -- "naked" short selling and he should be requested to stay on if he completely stops it.
McCain needs to name names... The people want someone to point the finger at.
Technicalities...
At least Mac had the balls to say some heads should roll. You won’t be hearing that from BHO as his would be one of the first ones! (Nor does he have the required equipment)
This was a big error in judgment and not called for at this time. But, in times of distress a scapegoat must be found, political correctness must be followed and pandering to voters is required.
If I am not mistaken, wasn’t Chris Cox at one time mentioned as a potential McPain running-mate?
He deserved it.
I recall that GWB had very little success in removing one of the Racist Royalty, UN Human Rights Commissioner, Mary Frances Berry. Not that he tried all that hard. Even after she was replaced at the end of her tenure, she refused to leave. What a Mongolian Cluster Event that was.
I think the whole sorry lot in congress should be fired, especially those who were against tighter regulation for Fannie mae and Freddie mac, and it’s too bad clinton is no longer around for him to be fired as well.
Yeah, and Charlie Rangel is going to start paying his taxes now that blatent lawbreaking has been revealed.
SEC has plenty of authority.....just open a few of these litigation releases and scan them......

They call it a cluster...
The President appoints the Chairman of the Fed, but cannot remove him. Whether this is the case here I do not know.
Obama people don't need to be concerned about government accountability because their futures are assured. (sarcasm)
“If Obama had said this, no reporter would ever mention the Presidents inability to explicitly fire him. They would say Obama meant to force Coxs resignation.”
Aftre Obama wins his 57 states, and rules as President for 10 years, he will be able to fire anyone from the MLB commissioner to Justice Scalia.
Just watch.
PS. I dont think McCain flubbed, I think he was just channelling his inner RINO.
I don’t think Obama could actually put lipstick on a pig, either.
Palin yes- Obama no.
“ABC News’ Martha Raddatz, Lisa Chinn, Alyssa Litoff, Bret Hovell and Imtiyaz Delawala contributed to this report.
They need five people to write a story? “
One to get the facts, four to add the necessary Obamedia bias.
