I think they do every show as SNL, like much of American TV these days, is seen as a failed IQ test by the rest of the planet. Sure you have a few like "Person of Interest", "Blue Bloods" or "Breakout Kings" that shine but for every one of those there's another round of doctors copulating, lawyers copulating, police copulating, firemen copulating, celebritards copulating, politicians copulating...

I disagree! A pvssy is useful.

Maybe he's a good enough actor to have fooled himself into believing such bull crap?

+1 here. It hasn't been remotely funny since "more cow bell".

In 1992, the regulator of Fannie Mae was critically weakened by the actions of Congressional Representative Barney Frank. The agency was required to get its budget approved by Congress, while agencies that regulated banks set their own budgets. That gave congressional allies an easy way to exert pressure. In the late 1990's, under the direction of the Clinton Administration's relaxing of lending standards, Fannie Mae CEO Franklin Raines allowed subprime borrowers to obtain loans.

In 1995, President Clinton's administration revised Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) regulation, which allowed mortgage lenders like Countrywide not to mitigate loan risk with savings deposits as do traditional banks, using the new subprime authorization, which is known the secondary mortgage market. The revisions allowed securitization of CRA loans containing subprime mortgages, which were first started by Bear Sterns in 1997. The number of CRA mortgage loans increased 39 percent between 1993 and 1998, while other loans increased only 17 percent. Other rule changes gave Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac extraordinary leverage, allowing them to hold just 2.5% of capital to back their investments, as opposed to 10% for banks.

Easy to find and there's lots more of it out there. Barney is 7 years deep into this by 1999.

Clueless. Capitalism and capital markets made possible a viable method of storing value and using it. At its simplest, what good is it to repair roofs all summer and fall if only to require maintaining a barn full of animals received in trade? There wouldn't have been a fraction of the progress we have enjoyed if not for having methods of storing wealth in a portable fashion and having that stored wealth's value recognized by others elsewhere.

Hey that was their pitch and as I said, it isn't anything sellable to any officers with experience and the ATF, DEA and JD are full of experienced officers.

As for what good it does to know the routes throughout Mexico, if you know where a thing travelled through then you also know who was looking the other way as it passed.

They used the spoken word "union" without correction from either interviewer or the interviewee. How is this unclear?

Well said. Obama had openly shown to all his true face in that forgotten fly-by done by the statue of liberty, without warning, for the sake of his getting a photo for his wall. America's ME president.

I think this goes much further and into the realm of legislating corporate policy into step with worker's demands which this case clearly does. It's simply another unionist policy. Put enough seemingly innocuous legislation on the book and soon what you were never able to accomplish openly comes to fruition in the shade.
