Thank You Christopher Dodd

If there was any doubt that Senator Christopher Dodd (D-CT) is a complete idiot, his gratuitous comments about the big banks today puts the issues to rest.

Dodd Says Short-Term Bank Nationalization Might Be Necessary ^[1]

BTW, did you see the stories about Dodd donating the political contributions from Stanford to charity?

Dodd says he’s giving Stanford contributions to charity ^[2]

This guy deserves censure, but for some reason the people of CT keep sending him back to Washington. The White House had to make a statement to try — emphasis try — to deflect Dodd’s remarks.

As Jim Crammer just said on CNBC: “Geithner has vannished.”
