His wife was a Vice President there during the crash and during their $10 BILLION BAILOUT.

He's part of what he's calling a problem. Who the fuck knows if the import/export bank is bad, I sure don't. Maybe it is, maybe it's not. I would bet though that getting rid of it would benefit Goldman Sachs.

You do realize that dems are still in control, right? Do you know why? It's because Obama can veto any bill that comes in front of him. If Congress truly want to pass a bill, they have to make sure it's one he'll sign. A veto override requires each chamber to vote again and 2/3rd's need to be in favor for it to pass.

And that is why I cant stand "parties" people need to vote there conscience and not be tied down to what there party wants to do. Im sure some do vote that way. But I for sure dont trust the majority to do the right thing, but only to do what's in there own interest.
