We have to authorize this invasion of Iraq or they will drop a nuclear warhead on us!

We're into plan B. Still breathing? Now we gotta make the best of it, improvise, adapt to the environment, Darwin, shit happens, I Ching, whatever man, we gotta roll with it.

Corzine, Cramer, Paulson all Golden Slacks.

They are out in force. Regular people have figured this out as easily as they figured out the Harvard connections.

Not working guys, not working.

is this what Corzine said to his driver before he crashed on the GSP?

Posted by guest , Sep 30, 2008 2:31PM

@5-- you realize corzine had to sell his gs stock when he took office, right?

Posted by guest , Sep 30, 2008 2:32PM

Just have W add "the economy" to the axis of evil and then do as he pleases. Subprime CDOs were the weapons of mass destruction; let him use his vast market knowledge to develop the rest of the story...

We have to pass this bailout or BOOM GOES THE DYNAMITE!

@7 - You realize that C,C&P's best political allies/donors in the future are all at GS or clients????

@8 We should let Wall Street use their vast market knowledge to fix this problem...oh wait...oops...they got us into this mess.

Posted by guest , Sep 30, 2008 2:37PM

gotta pass this thing PRONTO. I've got Fuld & Son coming over at 4 to mow the lawn... I can't think, let alone bang my little cougar divorsee, with those damn leaf blowers!

@ 7 he may have had to sell his stock, but he put his money into an alleged blind trust. we all know it is BS that he did not know what the blind trust invest in. he knows where every dollar is. just like they were not suppose to front run LTCM in 1997, and copy their positions when they were doing due diligence on their books

@16 wants to work at GS so that he can go work at JWM

blankfein: hank, we're running out of time, get this thing pushed through man! we need you...i need you.

paulson: i know Lloydy, i know...

Posted by guest , Sep 30, 2008 2:49PM

do you people honestly think that Paulson, Blankfein et al have a lot of personal $$ tied up in the outcome? At their lofty level the last few hundred million (which is what's at stake personally) doesnt matter.

@19- seriously doubt corzine was thinking that, as i doubt he had a lot of good feelings about gs/paulson after he got pushed out.

Posted by guest , Sep 30, 2008 3:04PM

@27-

Whatever his feelings were are for his buddies at Goldman, obviously his feelings for the American taxpayers are somewhat less respectful.

When Comrade Corzine is so adamantly in favor you have to question if this is the right move.

Seriously, i don't think this thing gets passed.

Who want an over/uner on how big the S&P is down tomorrow?

If they don't like the deal on their terms then they just won't participate
