Senator Clinton Insults TPMCafe
Yesterday on one of the Sunday morning talk shows Clinton said: "When the federal government, through the Fed and Treasury, gave $30 billion in a bailout to Bear Stearns, I didn't hear anybody jump in and say, 'That's not going according to the market, that's rewarding irresponsible behavior.'"
I feel personally insulted and so should everyone connected with TPMCafe. As you all know, that is exactly what I have been screaming at the top of my lungs. In fact, I've said this so many times, that many of you are sick of hearing it.
And I didn't just say it at TPMCafe. I also said it at The American Prospect, Truthout, the Guardian, and Common Dreams. In fact, I've also said this in such prominent news outlets as the Lehrer News Hour and The New York Times.
Apparently Senator Clinton didn't hear me. She also didn't hear my solution, which is certainly not a silly cut in the gas tax which will primarily benefit the oil industry.
