Dylan Ratigan is MSNBC but he's a BASHER of BOTH equaly.
Dylan Ratigan .. one of MSNBC's best. He's not loyal to either party just the facts.
He's the unltimate political and corperate skeptic who worked on Wall Street for many years for CNBC and knows all thier tricks.
He's one of my favorite programs par none for the truth on Wall Street and factual summaries of current legislation as it pertians to National Economics par none.
THEN WHY DIDNT HIS STORY, SHOW THAT DODD, AND FRANKS ARE BANKSTERS
facts are facts...and his story was BIASED
Because they voted for extending UE benefits. This article is specifically about the vote to extend UE benefits, it is not about Fannie or Freddie. There are many, many examples of Mr. Ratigan calling out Franks and Dodd for their bankster ways. This just didn't happen to be an example.
As for Udall and Bingaman, again, we are talking about UE benefits, not the financial reform bill.
And Ben Nelson is a Democrat - he voted 'no' so this isn't exactly accurate:
"funny how huffpo only mentioned the 'r's, and not the 'd's"
Here is the full vote:

From the original link:
"The same apparently is true for our current crop of Bankster Politicians, many of whom today voted against extending unemployment benefits even after they voted in 2008 for a bank bailout."
"The same apparently is true for our current crop of Bankster Politicians, many of whom today voted against extending unemployment benefits even after they voted in 2008 for a bank bailout."
See the connection?
ahhh cherry picking are we
the FACT is that MANY of todays's politicians are 'banksters' and are even behind the financial meltdown that happened
Neither were mine, which has me torn. I'd like to vote out Feingold, but he does have his good points, he voted against the repeal of Galss-Stegall in 1999, against the bailout and against this latest financial reform bill. But I'm afraid if I vote in some conservative sounding republican, he too will have a B after his name one day.
BTW, that list is missing Christopher Dodd.
