Dodd in good form

Ripping banks at today’s hearing on financial reform:

At the outset of the hearing, Democratic committee Chairman Christopher Dodd blasted banks and Wall Street for a refusal to work with Congress on a range of proposed financial reforms that “borders on insulting to the American people.”

Criticizing firms for hiring “an army of lobbyists” to fight reforms, Dodd said Obama’s new proposals were on the right track, but “will be no easy feat” to implement.

Know how many ex-members of Congress go on to become lobbyists?   My guess is half.

Maybe the Sandlers will hire Dodd once he is out of a job? Maybe they can help him pay for all his vacation homes all over the world?
