No time to watch our elected officials tussle with employees of Goldman Sachs?
The Huffington Post put together a five-minute mashup of all the oversimplified metaphors, stonewalling, curse words, and comb-overs.

Incredibly slow for me too. Also, the entire page of posts does not show up on most threads when I open them. It is very frustrating.

I wish these feds were this tough on terrorism and terrorists.

It's the same in all sectors, business, government/military, the churches, the schools, the unions, kindergarten, grad school, communication land. You name it. That's why we have checks and balances. But it all comes down to the weakest links in all of these areas. Every single group has a "few" (some more than a few) bad apples who ruin it for everyone else. The mature adults in these organizations have failed civilization in not educating the young up and comers to behave honorably.

And the alternative is? Trust all those honest private sector idiot sleazebags to police themselves?
You can't trust politics and you can't trust money. All you can do is pit them against each other and hope to minimize the damage.
Democracy, baby. Love it or leave it.

"If only the experts could second guess the experts..." great rationale for having public sector idiot sleazeballs supervise their private sector shrewd sleazeball contributors.
Nothing significant will happen to Goldman because it has a very cozy relationship with nearly every power base in Washington. Show Trial indeed. Right thing? I think not.

If only the experts could second guess the experts, who would second guess the experts?

Beth, I have no sympathy for Goldman, but only these politicians can make me sympathize for them. This is a Show Trial pure and simple and it has nothing to do with "do the right thing." Goldman donated to most of these interrogators and who knows what went on behind the scenes there. Don't know about that Oklahoma thing, but I am against the government meddling with my health. I know how that works out.

If you pay attention to the time on the top right corner, the edition of this video is really incredible... this is not really reflecting what happened on the hearing but what the editor thinks...

"Let's say Goldman had some sleazy people ..."?? How is it that every time the government tries to do the right thing ... like reigning in FRAUDULENT entities that almost brought the financial system crashing down on your house ... they're the bad guys. But, when they do nothing to fix a broken system, everyone bitches that the government does nothing. You're afraid of bureaucrats dictating your healthcare? Then I assume your protesting this new law in Oklahoma that FORCES women to have an invasive medical procedure in order to humiliate and terrorize them because they want an abortion?

Let's say Goldman had some sleazy people working there. Entirely feasible, but watching these politicans conduct oversight of private enterprise in all their incompetent glory gives me a queasy stomach when I think that in just a few years, we will have the same sort of hearings. Only the people getting grilled will have medical degrees, and these same slimy politicans are going to be second-guessing medical diagnoses. Today our tax dollars are at play. Tomorrow, it will be our health.
