what's wrong with the government intervening in two failing mortgage lenders? i hope you don't think the federal should have let them both fail, no private companies were willing to absorb their debts either.

I say you no know who their "papa" be?  I'm not talking about bail-out but rather the reason we would end up needing bail-outs in the first place.

What Housing Bubble? BF in 2005

You are seeing an excessive degree of concern . . . Those who argue that housing prices are now at the point of a bubble seem to me to be missing a very important point . . . . you're not going to see the collapse that people talk about . . . we will continue to push for home ownership

Fannie and Freddie Are Fine, We need to even do more - BF in 2003

'These two entities -- Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac -- are not facing any kind of financial crisis,'' said Representative Barney Frank of Massachusetts, the ranking Democrat on the Financial Services Committee. ''The more people exaggerate these problems, the more pressure there is on these companies, the less we will see in terms of affordable housing.''

^and then instead of his sorry behind to humble himself and admit his miscalculation and accept responsiblity, see him here denying he didn't push for more home ownership. What's worse than a lying politician? sorry for the redundancy - lying & politician generally go together.

well i wouldn't be riding with barney on that issue but i still believe he has acquired enough political capital to win this race.   i have a bias for him because we both share a support for LGBT rights and slashing military spending.

  Actually what he has are political zombies in Mass. I wish we were more like our thinking, active, Player neighbors in New Hampshire. Now there's a state that shows no party favorites.

Understandable. I am willing to cut politicians some slack every now and then . . . but when they outrightly and shamelessly lie in the face of their own words it speaks volumes as to their character.

Say that again to the republican lady tea bagger elect who claimed that Obama is travelling to India at the cost of $200M per day.

never thought keith olbermann would get suspended that's for sure.

the guy is a staple on the evening circuit.

oh well, change is inevitable i guess.

what enemies, it was her arrogance, i mean the arrogance of the democrats that made them lose lots of seat, thank God the tea party only manged two seats, as for speaker Mr Boehner, lets see what he's going to come up with, i mean this is a guy who spends most of his time on the golf course, what is it with American Politicians and the likes of Glen Beck with their crocodie tears, why the heck was Mr Boehner crying while making his speech, American politicians are soooooooooooo fake.

Obama now needs to listen and stop bn arrogance, he needs to listen to his team if he wants to win in 2012, he needs to take The Scum Party oops The Tea Party seriously becos they are a serious threat, they have the backing of the Murdoch mafia. no more entertaining a- list and z- list celebrities in the white house.

This is no brainer Keith Olbermann  was one of only people speaking truth to powers for years a Petition to reinstate Keith exploded online gaining more than 200 thousand signatures within just 24 Hrs this what we call double standard fox news can donate to republicans and Keith gets thrown off the air for doing same thing to a far lesser degree

it was rather harsh but i'm not sure msnbc management had too many options.

he could have been fined or something perhaps, instead, but what do i know.

brian thomas is covering his slot for now, i think.
