Democrats and Wall Street ................................................................................................... December 5, 2011 Messenger News To the editor: There is a myth that Wall Street controls Republicans. Just who is “Wall street?” Let’s look at the facts. The epitome of Wall Street greed is Bernie Madoff. Madoff made off with $60 billion with his Ponzi scheme. Madoff is a Democrat. He was Hillary Clinton’s biggest fundraiser. He also raised millions for Obama and Chuck Schumer. Another big-time Ponzi schemer was Mark Sanford. Sanford is also a Democrat and raised millions for Obama and Schumer. Likely joining Madoff in jail will be John Corzine, the CEO who recently bankrupted MF Global. Before that, as its Democratic governor, he ran New Jersey into the ground. And before that, he was a Democratic senator. The largest bailout in history was the $180 billion used to bail out Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Franklin Raines was a CEO of Fannie Mae who was fired for cooking the books. Raines is a Democrat. Tim Howard was a CFO of Fannie Mae who was caught cooking the books. Howard is a Democrat. James Johnson was also a CEO of Fannie Mae who was fired for cooking the books. Johnson was selected by Obama to lead his vice presidential search committee. Rahm Emmanuel was Obama’s chief of staff. He was on the board of directors of Fannie Mae. Jamie Goreleck (Clinton regime) was on the board of directors of Fannie Mae. Guess which party got 90 percent of the political contributions from Fannie Mae? When the Bush administration sought an investigation into Fannie Mae in 2003, it was blocked by Democrat Barney Frank whose ... lover, Herb Moses, was an executive at Fannie Mae. The Dodd Frank bill, signed by Obama, even exempted Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac from its regulation. And, bringing it all back home, there’s Ruth Harkin, wife of Democrat Tom Harkin. As the head of OPIC, she lobbied the Clinton regime for three-fourths of a billion in taxpayer dollars so that ENRON could build a plant in India. Before leaving OPIC, she also obtained taxpayer money from the Clinton regime for United Technologies. Upon leaving OPIC, she ended up with a senior vice presidency position at United Technologies. UT has been frequently under scrutiny for having the most outrageous executive compensation packages in the world. It has been a common strategy of the Democrats to accuse the Republicans of something that the Democrats have been doing for a long time. Roger Huetig Fort Dodge messengernews.net
