Plain stupid or shameless… have a pick

Sir on your front page in “Moody’s admits to failings over crisis”, April 24, Stephanie Kirchgaessner and Kevin Seiff report that “The chief executive of Moody’s admitted to a Senate panel yesterday that the US credit rating agencies failed to anticipate the severe deterioration in the US housing market that led to the financial crisis”.

If Raymond McDaniel does not know what role the AAA ratings had in creating the worst part of the bubble in the US housing market and which had to explode, then he is plain stupid, but, if he is not that stupid, then he is just shameless… Have a pick!
