Back in September, but could have been today...

1. I remember this one--I was pissed at Sully for not realizing that the bad

debts were structured by and for the banking industry. And I was pissed at his interrupting Klein so much.

2. Did he hijack the whole discourse?

Because I tuned out when he started telling us that it was our fault.

4. So it's our fault for wanting a house?

In my case I bought within my means , had a down payment, took out a 30 year mortgage and still had to buy a house that was hyper-inflated because of irresponsible businesses that made loans that were unsustainable, and rather than following good business practices, they bundled their bad debt into derivative and CDS and sold them as good investments.

Where I come from that is called fraud. These bastards need to be in jail.

5. Sully tried to hijack the thing. It was Maher who cut them both off, which I thought was wrong. He

should have cut Sully off, and had Klein make her point uninterrupted.

3. Gawd Sully can be a jackass.

6. Sully is just spouting talking points and not really listening to her

[Muttocracy]
