Hundreds of protesters
massed at the Department of Justice to demand that banks be held
accountable for their multitudinous crimes. That’s like asking the Pope
to convert to Islam. “If the Obama administration has been consistent on
any one issue, it is the untouchability of the biggest banks.”
Attorney
General Eric Holder won’t lay a hand on the cabal of banks that are
“too big to fail” and far too politically powerful to jail, but DC
police seemed eager to use their tasers on homeowners and
anti-foreclosure demonstrators at Holder’s Justice Department, this
week. Five hundred protesters from organizations around the country,
including Occupy Minnesota, the Alliance of Californians for Community
Empowerment, the Home Defenders League, and Occupy Our Homes gathered to
demand that banks be held accountable for the massive frauds they’ve
committed against homeowners and society at large. Several dozen
protesters were arrested, including a number of elderly persons, but
Eric Holder and his top lieutenants didn’t even bother to acknowledge
their presence.
