Representative Michael Capuano Rocked Today’s CEO Hearings

So, we live-blogged the CEO hearing in front of the House Financial Services Committee today. We use the term “live-blogged” loosely, because we’re pretty sure we actually technically died during hour three or four, which is when Representative Michael Capuano, of Massachusetts, brought us out of our semi-vegetative state and made the whole thing worth listening to with an awesome rant that included the words “Girl Scout cookies” and “Mother Teresa.” Capuano is a big ranter. He’s ranted about so many other things that we are almost surprised no one has ever made a mash-up of his greatest hits, except that would be unspeakably dorky. But watch the video here, and tell us you can’t imagine it with a chorus and a little “Throw your hands in the air!”
