Reuters reports that Hank Paulson “inadvertently failed to disclose” a mutual fund with less than $15,000 in value last year, prior to taking over as Secretary of the Treasury. Brookly McLaughlin, a spokeswoman for the treasury claims that the error was “an oversight.” Let this be a lesson to you all: if you want to distract reporters from various corrupt misdeeds, hire a spokeswoman named "Brookly McLaughlin.” (Why do you think Carney's got a spokesperson named Manhatta on retainer?)
