5. Here is the real scandal
Wed May 15, 2013, 12:16 AM
May 2013

The folks that destroyed our economy in 2008 are free to repeat the same blunders again with the blessings of our bribe saturated Federal Government.


I hate it when "scandals" of much lesser consequence divert attention.

Sorry....I'm still stuck on the scandal that happened five years ago and the even bigger scandal that not one significant contributor has faced justice for it.


I could really give a shit about the current crop of "scandals". They are relatively insignificant relative to what happened. We are still trying to recover and this current sequester is a direct result of bailing out banks, refinancing under water mortgages, and dumping federal funds into a stimulus to get us back on track.

Get your scandals prioritized please. The folks that caused this mess are jumping for joy that we are collectively following the latest "shiny objects".

For me, this takes on the 9/11 mantra. "Never Forget"
