Capuano's heated words to 8 bank CEOs

So this was posted on Wonkette today and thought some of you might be interested.
The video from CSPAN runs about 5min.

Um, sorry, he voted for it in 2000.

This was also the Act that created the Enron loophole.

The date was corrected (after you read it but before you replied.) Personally I'm happy Capuano got angry at these guys, the deserve public rebuke. As my Representative Capuano can do that on my behalf.

I'd be happier if he'd voted against this thing back in 2000. But I'd rather him change his mind now than not. Perhaps someone can run against him in the next election on a platform of never changing their mind (I think we had someone like that in the White House the last 8 years).

So, you don't think people should be able to change their minds.

And you don't think people who made an error in the past should be able to do their job correctly today.

Brilliant.
