Shep Smith on Fox News explains that, no, the AIG executive bonuses are not the cause of our current problems, not even the worst effect.
Yes, I know it’s the evil Fox News. Watch it anyway. Don’t use ad hominem — Tell me why Smith is wrong.
The root cause is Congress, including many of those, such as Sen. Chris Dodd (D-Conn), and Rep. Barney Frank (D-Mass) now banging the drum most loudly for lynching the capitalists.
Don’t believe them. They are desperate to keep us from realizing that it is in fact all their fault, and that their planned fixes will only make it all much, much worse.

Here it is again, this time from Rep. Thaddeus McCotter (R-Mich) on the House floor via CSPAN:
If, in the last election, you voted for Obama, or for any Democrat, you voted for the lying thugs who started this mess and plan to make it worse as an excuse to own you, own you outright.
