Financial Crisis, Don't Lose Your T-Shirts



Financial Crisis report is here, so get down with Commission chair Phil Angelides
The pro-Obama self-described progressives at the Campaign
for America's Future complained about the White House's icy
silence on the Angelides Commision. Wrote the CAF's Sam Pizzigati
on Feb. 5: "Blue-ribbon reports, to make an impact, need
political patrons, elected leaders who'll talk the report content
up, in news conferences and speeches, and demand immediate action
to correct the ills that report content identifies. The Pecora
Commission report had plenty of those patrons, including
President Franklin D. Roosevelt. The Financial Crisis Inquiry
Commission has had virtually none. The White House has done next
to nothing to give the report legs, and neither have many
Democratic lawmakers."

Obama, time to see the light of reality.
