"only about 66,000 people have benefited from permanent mortgage loan modifications aimed to prevent foreclosure, a figure that has resulted in a House panel investigation."

"Geithner said the mortgage modification program has helped 750,000 Americans so far to lower their monthly payments substantially"

They've grown corrupt, venal and out-of-touch with the values, and the people, whom they're supposed to represent. So the people, once again, are reasserting themselves.

Most of the attention focused on this weekend's convention seemed to involve the keynote speaker, ...
