User Clip: 090319 Cornyn Blamed Obama for Bailout Bonuses, Lack of Accountability

"Fourth, the President needs to fulfill his pledge to promote transparency and accountability and bipartisanship in Washington--something I agree with. The President won the support of the American people because he promised to be a different kind of leader. Yet we see that the more things change, the more they seem to be the same here in Washington. Lack of transparency in Congress helped protect these bailout bonuses in law--passed by the Senate without my vote and signed by the President of the United States. Lack of accountability at the other end of Pennsylvania Avenue speeded this money out the door." close
