THE BLAME BELONGS IN WASHINGTON

SPECIAL POST

Paulson has the audacity to lay the blame on people before him, on the failures of Congress to do their jobs... everywhere except at his desk. He alludes that the situation "could have been much worse. We're lucky."

Here is the classic example of bullshit in government. He has the audacity to demand of Congress that they do what he says immediately. He's the alarmist long after the alarm should have been sounded, and he's the guy who supposedly had his hands on the pulse of things all along. He's allowed the buildings to burn halfway to the ground before he sounded the alarm bell.

Paulson has to go. And so should the whole damned Congressional Committee....BEFORE they rush headlong into "emergency" decisions like a bunch of used car salesman with a carlot full of customers.
