Who to blame

Want proof positive that the current problems in the financial sector are to be blamed on Democrats rather than Republicans?

There has not been one call for a special prosecutor or Justice Department investigation from congressional Democrats. There has not even been a call for a blue-ribbon commission to get to the bottom of the crisis and fix blame.

Neither the House nor Senate banking of commerce committees are going to hold a series of special hearings to investigate the causes of the current problems with an eye to finding out who is responsible.

Elected Democrats would be doing all those things and more if they didn't know that the trail of any real investigation didn't lead directly to their doorstep.
