MF/48; ah, to hell with it

i hear ya man. Folks have forgotten about that Raines/Gorelick racket, they were adding everything that came in above their bonus trigger to a secret slush account from which they’d make up any quarters that came in under their bonus triggers –never missed a single incentive bonus! And they were setting their own bonuses! Yipee! Ten million doesn’t piss off the public? Well let’s do twenty!

Then they get caught, and the punishment is, they have to retire from Fannie Mae. Oh, poo.

Ten thousand Duke Cunninghams in ten thousand lifetimes would never get anywhere close to what that one scam –among the thousands being spun by cohorts –cost the taxpayer in one lousy year.

And yet –it was an “accounting problem”! No fault! Yipee!

And here we have Mike preaching comity and respect and meeting halfway. It’s like partial-birth abortion –how do you meet halfway? Don’t kill the baby, just severely injure it?
