I know it is an EVIL Fox News report, but here is a take on the prominent role the dems played in this debacle:

I know this is an evil HuffPost opinion, but I'll post it anyway...

gweedork citing foxnews as a balanced source is a lot like your complaining of dems citing dailykos or huffpo as a balanced source.

Thanks for the laugh!

No one bothered to read the first story linked apparently.  It was a factual story that the FBI is starting to look into it.  Nothing to be biased about in it.  Covered the four W's and the H questions.

No hit job, no opinion, just raw facts.  Somewhat refreshing.  Like yogurt without all the gooey **** added.

It's amazing to me how people can turn a blind eye to the facts to suit political agendas. Did you not watch the video? Is there anything there that is not factual, like the Republicans voting to reign in Freddie/Fannie and the Democrats blocking it?

I think there is plenty of blame to spread around but the denial of facts because you don't like the source is asinine.

Thank you TFIT.  We need to step up pressure for bi-partisan solutions.  Partisan finger-pointing is the biggest rip off of all.
