Related? Only if we find a bunch of harassing e-mails from Grassley and other Senators on the guy's Facebook page.

I don't think Grassley was too harsh at all; he did leave them the option of simply resigning, which seems to be about all we ever demand of people who have done horrible things in a corporate environment. Me, I'd push for "resign and then face criminal charges".

I have to wonder what a full audit of the Freddie Mac books would turn up. But we'll probably never be allowed to know.

Of course I have no way of knowing if they are related. The former was just the first thing I thought of when I heard the latter.

I agree with [livejournal.com profile] verymelm though. I feel like we're generally not shocked enough or over sensitized to actually wishing harm/death on other people. I think Grassley was way too harsh.
