Neil Barofsky gets pwned by Dennis Kucinich

(Oct 14, 2009 C-SPAN ) Neil Barofsky testified about retention bonuses awarded to employees and leaders of financial institutions after the companies had received federal bailout money, as well as oversight by the Treasury Department and Federal Reserve. He said that the $168 million in retention payments to American International Group (AIG) represented a "failure" that occurred when the Treasury Department "outsourced its oversight" to other agencies.

Dennis Kucinich needs to be President at some point.

Mr. Kucinich, thank you for continuing the good fight. Wish more Congressmen would follow your lead. Always a pleasure to watch your speeches.

Barofsky wasn't pwned... The Fed was pwned with the help of Barofsky's testimony...

I like Kucinich, and Ron Paul too for that matter, but the uploader is obviously confused. Neil Barofsky is not being "pwned" by anyone. There is no confrontation taking place here. Barofsky was an independent investigator - the SIG for TARP - who in a rare stroke of luck, turned out to be smart, highly competent, and surprisingly candid - and I might add, a major thorn in the side of the Obama administration. Barofsky is very definitely, as wuezili has said, "one of the good guys."

Neil Barofsky is one of the good guys, I believe.

We used to have a media that helped keep the Govt accountable. But now they are part of the problem. When the people fear the Govt, they live oppressed. When the Govt fear the people, they live free and the Govt is accountable to the voters!
