MSNBC Progressive radio and television host Ed Schultz really left no wiggle room for Congressman Barney Frank last night (Monday, November the, 2009). He asked strong and point blank questions of the congressman. He forcefully asked Frank why the Democrats had let wall street continue on with the very same type of loose and corrupt practices that they had done before. When the congressman tried to equivocate saying that it woud take time for reforms to take place and that much had already been done, Schultz strongly disagreed with him.
Schultz said that the corruption continued and that in effect the democrats did not have an excuse because they controlled both houses of congress and the executive office. This author had not seen Congressman Frank ever so angry and flabbergasted. When Schultz thanked him for coming on his show, Congressman Frank kept a stony and angry look on his face while refusing to speak or even say goodbye to Ed Schultz. Now, if only Randi Rhodes and Stephanie Miller would follow the lead of Thom Hartman, Keith Olbermann, Mike Malloy and Rachel Maddow we might be able to clean up the corruption in both political parties!
By the way, this author will continue to utilize his free speech and speak out for the truth no matter what political party tries to stop him. The Veteran's Administration and members of the Obama Administration are refusing to allow his housing New G.I. Education Check to come through and therefore are trying to single him out for political retribution. This author has a one word answer for them: nuts !

What the hell are you talking about with Randi Rhodes? Over the 10 years I have been listening to her she has made more than one guest get up and leave because she would NOT take anything but a direct answer... I thought Ollie North was going to choke her when she pushed the issue of him being convicted, he would NOT admit it and she pushed and he freaked. What would you like her to do? If you think she lobs softballs, you probably haven't been listening to her that long.

We need NSS arrests - not Insider Trading arrests
It is November 5th, 2009 at high noon and the SEC is all over the news about another arrest. They are all on stage giving this big press conference on 14 arrests for Insider Trading connected to the Galleon Group investigation. Is it Insider Trading? The Government wanted the world to believe this caused the financial meltdown on Wall Street. Three weeks earlier the SEC made the first arrest for Insider Trading involving Raj Rajaratnam and 5 other people on Wall Street.
It is my opinion that the Government and the SEC is involved in a cover up to try and make people think that it was insider trading that caused the crisis of 2008. Let the truth be known. The news media, along with Goldman Sachs and many other Wall Street companies and people of power are all involved in the biggest cover up in the history of the United States. It involves greed to the fullest extend. The SEC is
I think Barney Frank should retire and spend the rest of his days talking with dining room tables. Just make sure they don't have any loose screws!!!! He might get too excited and that would not be good for his heart. What a guy, he needs the rest. I think the pressure has gotten to him!
