$$$ Cody Willard: “Hey, all you idiot thieving liars at Goldman Sachs – maybe you paid back the $10 billion of welfare money you begged for from the TARP bailouts…but before you pay out a single dollar in bonuses to anybody at your welfare-subsidized institution, how about you pay my sister back the $12 billion in welfare that she sent you through AIG?
And hey, SEC, FINRA and the rest of you worthless regulators who pretend you’re protecting us from frauds like Madoff’s and Goldman Sachs….how about prosecuting Lloyd Blankfein for fraud or gross negligence? I mean, Blankfein signed off on documents that say his firm’s in great financial shape and fully meeting all their capital ratios….when in fact, they had so much junk fraudulently overvalued on their balance sheet that they were actually insolvent and so Blankfein had to go beg for welfare.” [MarketWatch]

no one on earth needs to be punched harder in the face than cody willard.
@cody, is that a direct quote? well played, sir.
I know it’s write-offs, but that quote deserves an accompanying picture of Cody.
good call @3
@3 you’re right.
They pay him actual money to write that? Like actual, real US Dollars? Dollars which could have been put to a move productive use, say, lining a bird cage? What a country.
Cody, suck it douche.
He’s no Matt Taibbi.
Cody, you forgot to add that I owe your sister money for the BJ she gave me in the elevator.

Against the power of Mordor there can be no victory. We must join with him, Gandalf. We must join with Sauron. It would be wise, my friend.
That’s no brawl. That looks like me and the ol’ lady after hittin’ the boones.

Cody, Goldman “begged” for TARP money the same way I “begged” for herpes when your mom was offering to bang every guy in the parking lot at 1500 Pennsylvania Ave.
Fuck off.
I am an idiot.

@17- your analogy is off. Banging his mom might have prevented you from killing yourself due to larger forces at work- namely the atrocious selection of women in DC.

I’ve already pinned my letters to Mad Max for tomorrows when GS releases earnings.
“I’m shocked, outraggeous, and mordified thats my tax dollars paid them 12 billion threw AIG. I wants me’s monies backs”.
I think I’ll call her office and voice my outrage. Tomorrow I will be Solis Hickman esq Harvard L&B School. When the ducks start quacking, feed’m bitches.

Why are the pundits losing their minds (Kneale, Cramer, Kudlow, Gaspo, Macke, Willard et all) and why are the douchebag bankers just shrugging and going to prison?
why does Denis Kneel keep having that Julie biotch on. She is a horror to watch.

FUCK YEAH!
fucking great read from cody willard. almost makes me want to start watching fox business
Does Cody do any research when he writes these articles? I mean I hate to defend Goldman Sachs, but it’s widely reported and factual they DID NOT want the $10 billion TARP money.
In terms of AIG, the Goldman CEO has said even if AIG went bankrupt, Goldman Sachs was fully-hedged in its exposure to AIG through other parties.
So in reality, the government didn’t really save Goldman at all in terms of CDS payments, because if AIG went under, Goldman would of gotten paid through other transactions betting on AIG going under.
At least the doorman prevented the couch from getting stolen.
-Wildcard bitches!
@30
you think GS was fully hedged against an AIG collapse?
fuck, tools like you make me defend cody
fuck
can we get a follow up story on the mexican coke sharks? like- what clubs do they hang out at now? did they get a house in the hamptons for the summer?
Madoff landed at southern Super Max pen
32 – Yep… Short memory fuck wads seem to forget $47.41 and the world almost ending due to lack of liquidity.
Yes, GS traded at $47.41 and had a choice… Ass raped to death by the shorts or choose the safety of a weekly BJ to the guards… LB chose the gov’t BJ and saved GS.
Americans have the attention span of spastic 14 year old girls…
Charlie himself said today Goldman was toast but for the gov’t money. You’ll be able to read it in his book probably.

I love how She-Bair has thrown the CIT ticking time bomb into Tiny Tim’s hands, especially as he was set to jet off for a European jaunt.

GOLDMAN SACHS Writes To The President…. A LETTER of THANKS.
http://pacificgatepost.blogspot.com/2009/07/goldman-sachs-thank-you-mr-president.html
……. And the circus continues, with Taxpayer singing the tune.
Mr. Willard, what you’ve just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.
What’s with all the recent Goldman Sachs bashing? I don’t understand it, especially when it comes from wingnuts.
@35
Ok, let me be less subtle, as Europeans are gay.
Nobody was FULLY hedged against an AIG collapse.
You’re so fucking stupid, you think a “bear raid” knocked the stock to $50?
Fox Business’ Cody Willard sounded off in a recent blog post about the recently enacted first time home buyer tax credit, calling it a subsidy for the rich. But Willard seems to have mistaken “first time home buyer” for “new home buyer.” Had he bothered to review the actual credit, he would have known that the first time home buyer credit is for well, just that. Oh, and there’s also a $75,000 income cap for single buyers, $150,000 for married couples. It’s hard to see how that’s a subsidy for the rich from the poor. In his post, Willard says, “The money for that $8,000 a year targeted tax trick for “new home buyers” that the Democrat/Republican Regime created a few months ago means that anybody who’s renting is subsidizing those people who are rich enough (or stupid/dishonest enough) to already OWN homes.” Willard is such a good sport, we’re sure he won’t mind. He said that he actually will cut his hair, on air, for charity. So maybe the headline is “Cody Willard: Will Cut Hair On Air For Charity.” Someone tell TVNewser! Before he left, Willard showed us what his hair would look like short, borrowing the hair elastic from my ponytail and pulling his hair back in one himself. We approved! Then he left, hair still back, newly-gifted hair elastic in place. Fur further references, check out: http://personalmoneystore.com/Personal-Loans/unsecured-Loans/

semen bodine why don’t you drop by here in europe so we can teach you what we ‘gays’ do to a pussy like you?
@46
ok, but only if you buy my carbon offsets?
What? I give you that prime example of Cody’s beautiful thought, just in time for write-offs, and no acknowledgment, Bess? You’re dead to me, dead. Until you next post something funny.

1M page views per month, dude’s posts are pretty solid but the commentary is crazy.
You think dealbreaker cracks this guys raedership? I don’t.
And this is somewhat rational America, not tinfoil hat America (mostly).
Frankly it’s pretty pretty prettay frightening.
Jaysus, I did not sleep well last night and I suspect I’ll sleep even worse tonight.
@54
Rewrite what you wrote after you get some good night sleep. You make no sense.
Testing 1-2-3.
@55, the guy (refenced in @54) is getting 1-2M hits per month, he’s obviously got an audience. He’s pretty solid on his analysis but his commenters get pretty far out there. Not nearly as bad as zerohedge or denninger commenters but still pretty bad with a few exceptions.
It’s fricking frightening, or should be, if you’re a trader. Mainstream America/day traders/401K investors are shutting down, if you’re not a program trader/quant you should be fricking scared, and I’m not a quant guy.
SBII- yes, you are illustrative of the short term memory folks.
AIG was salvaged prior to GS hitting $47.41.
Revisit the market movements and commentary and you will note that GS and MS suffered from raiders perpetuating rumors that these firms were in mortal danger.
@30. You’re an idiot.
Cody Willard and Dennis Kneale are two of this biggest examples of how you don’t have to be good at what you do to get on TV. You just have to suck a mean cock….
