Funny...when it's health care for children, accountability matters a great deal

Remember Graeme Frost? He's the Baltimore seventh grader who spoke out in favor of the federal Children's Health Insurance Program because the program helped pay for his recovery from a devastating car accident -- and found himself the youngest person ever to be swiftboated by the lunatic right. They were perfectly OK with going after a twelve-year-old whom they thought didn't "deserve" to be in the program, but when anyone makes an effort to put ANY kind of accountability behind the billions -- probably trillions before it's all over -- of federal money being shoveled into the coffer of banks that are failing due solely to the mismanagement and greed of their executives, it's Scream Bloody Murder time, especially now that Barack Obama has decided that if banks are going to spend federal bailout money on junkets to Las Vegas* and on stuffing more tens of millions into the pockets of the very executives who ran their banks into the ground, perhaps a little accountability is in order.
