POPSFunnelling $ Right back Where it All Started Schumer hissyfits. Dems demand ACORN get FIRST returns of any profits from housing rescue. They have not heard distinctly or decisively enough, to this point, that we know their Freddie scam, we see it, we see their duplicity, but it does not hit them. They are still surrounded by enough enablers of their denial. They are indignant, blaming, unresponsive to reality. Idealogically bankrupt! THIS is not a time to funnel money to get people started into loans they will fail on. STOP IT !!!!!!!!!!!!!

This way, if anyone from 1903 watches the trailer, instead of ducking and/or running for their life, they'll just drop their bowler hat, curl up into a ball, rock back and forth, and mumble into their shirtwaist, "What world is this? What is happening to me? Where am I?"

POPS Beltway Bandits And Runaway Federal Contracts Some of the most affluent zip codes in the country have always been around the capital. The tiny towns of Alexandria and Georgetown showcase old colonials, new Mercedes and fancy bistros. But since the 9/11 attacks – which spawned high-paying government jobs and billions in defense and homeland security contracts – wealth has spread to surrounding counties all within commuting distance of D.C.
