Barney Frank (D-MA) Chairman of the House Committee on Financial Services is demanding the large banks involved in the 2nd mortgage market write down the value of these liens, so investors in the 1st mortgages can write down their investments and move on.

Sounds good! Doesn’t it?

See the letter here at the wsj online. Barney’s letter to banks

The problem is Barney fought to have the “Mark to Market” accounting rule eliminated. So how do the 2nd mortgage get written down now?

After you read about his involvement you’ll better understand how these people in our Congress keep themselves employed and our country screwed up.

It’s might be a good thing for all of us to figure out but I doubt it.

This is how it works!

“Create  an issue or program we know nothing about, make it a law,  Americans spend the next 20 years suffering from the consequences of the original action and then try to piecemeal a fix to the mess so as not to offend  the special interest groups the program was designed specifically for.”

Are we ready for Health Care Reform?

This is Barney term after term. See Barney’s Record Here

We need more help from the voters in Massachusetts’s 4th District.

Charles Rangel – “Time to Clean Out the House” http://apissedoffamerican.com/blog/rep-charles-rangel-time-to-clean-out-the-house/ http://apissedoffamerican.com/blog/rep-charles-rangel-time-to-clean-out-the-house/#comments Wed, 03 Mar 2010 14:27:00 +0000 POA http://apissedoffamerican.com/blog/21/rep-charles-rangel-time-to-clean-out-the-house/ Continue reading →]]>

Rep. Charles Rangel (D-NY) from Harlem, announced Wednesday he will temporarily step down as Chairman of the powerful House Ways and Means Committee, saying he didn’t want his ethics controversy to jeopardize election prospects for fellow Democrats.

All I have to say is “It’s about time”.  We really don’t need him guiding and molding tax legislation any longer. Hopefully he is on his way to full resignation from the House of Representatives. It’s time for the people in Harlem to start looking for their next Rep!

Rangel’s poppas attitude toward ethics and full financial disclosure as well as his lack of respect for the oath he took is another good argument for term limits. Rangel’s Record

Kudos to the House Ethics Committee.

Question – Who should be next to step down?

I have an idea! Representative Barney Frank (D-MA)?
