PERHAPS WE COULD MOVE ON IF YOU WOULD MAKE YOUR SECRET LOAN DOCUMENTS PUBLIC, SENATOR.

WHAT ARE YOU AFRAID WE WOULD FIND OUT ABOUT YOUR SWEETHEART DEAL, THAT MAKES YOU SO AFRAID TO OPEN YOUR PAPERS TO DISCLOSURE?

SOUNDS LIKE SOMEBODY IS HIDING SOMETHING!; October 22, 2009 at 11:29 PM

Does Dodd really think that being associated with a Socialist/Marxist like Obama is really going to help him with the voters in Connecticut?; October 23, 2009 at 5:26 PM

"The public is figuring it out and the economy is not responding to these absolutely unprecedented spending sprees and borrowing sprees and deficits," said Healy.; October 23, 2009 at 10:08 PM

President Obama blows into the bluest state today facing a cold shoulder from once true-blue admirers, as gay rights activists, anti-war protesters and vexed environmentalists vow to picket a fund-raiser he’s headlining for Gov. Deval Patrick - a marquee event that hasn’t even sold out.; October 23, 2009 at 11:48 PM

After months of partisan bickering, the chairman of the influential U.S. House oversight committee Friday said he will subpoena Countrywide Financial Corp. for records that could show whether the company gave favorable loan terms to government financial policymakers.

One of those who obtained refinancing under what has become known as Countrywide's VIP program was Senate banking committee Chairman Christopher Dodd. Dodd insists he received no preferential treatment on two loans and he said that a U.S. Senate investigation concluded the loans didn't violate ethics rules.

But critics have complained that the Senate ethics investigation was too narrowly focused, and the loans have dogged Dodd's uphill campaign for re-election. The decision to serve a wide-ranging subpoena on Countrywide, and to obtain similar sorts of documents from other big players in the U.S. mortgage industry, handed his political opponents an opportunity to resurrect the issue.; October 25, 2009 at 1:40 AM
