The mainstream media has been unable to discern the obvious connections between Democrats and the Fannie Mae-Freddie Mac corruption that ignited the current credit crisis. Try as they might, their judgment is impaired by the blinding light of the Obama halo they they are worshiping.
But even Alec Baldwin, the wacky, off-kilter actor who once urged that Republicans and their children should be killed, understands the deal. Here he is on Bill Maher’s show:
The, the thing we have to remember, a friend of mine who is very close to the financial community in New York pointed out that Democrats have a lot of the responsibility for this as well. I mean, it was Clinton who killed the Glass-Steagall, and it happened under a Democratic president. Barney Frank and his committee, they, they kept propping up Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac saying everything’s fine, everything’s fine, everything’s good. And it was his job to know everything wasn’t fine. And Barney Frank let you down and let us down as well. And so, but I want to say there’s blame to go both ways.
