As you’re aware, Lloyd Blankfein took a $9 million bonus on Friday in an attempt to show the world he “gets” it. So much does Lloyd get it that prior to accepting an obscenely low package for a man of his stature, he actually consulted Kenneth Feinberg “numerous” times on the matter, even though he didn’t have to. According to Feinberg, the conversations were “not only about the size of [Blankfein's] package” but also about how, Goldman, as an institution should behave and lead by example. “He was concerned and wanted to abide by what Treasury was doing and he has succeeded.” For his part, Feinberg still seems a bit skeptical of LB. “Whether or not those prescriptions will remain in place remains to be seen.”

My package is huge and made of solid gold. I can stab you in the tonsils with it via your southern passage. Just sayin’

Hath not a Jew eyes? Hath not a Jew hands, organs,
dimensions, senses, affections, passions; fed with
the same food, hurt with the same weapons, subject
to the same diseases, heal’d by the same means,
warm’d and cool’d by the same winter and summer
as a Christian is? If you prick us, do we not bleed?
If you tickle us, do we not laugh? If you poison us,
do we not die? And if you wrong us, shall we not revenge?

@7 I dont see the connection between LB’s religion and his bonus. I do see the connection between you and peanuts in shit.
You are both peanuts in shit.
go fuck your mother.
- jew who doesnt like LB but cant stand the anti-semites either.
Hey @7: You want to give me a little attribution? I wrote that stuff and my beard Shakespeare published it. I was hiding out in Italy when I wrote that due to an indiscretion that would have cost me my head back in England. And I got that wanker Shakespeare to publish it. The little pecker used to peep at the actresses between scenes but he did ultimately have his use.
~Christopher Marlowe…..(yes, yes that’s where Raymond’s character Philip’s last name came from…)
@8…It’s called “English Literature”. People who are smart study it in college. Hank Paulson (that Hank Paulson) studied it so much he got a BA in it. Now, after being a quant at Lehman, how have things been going for you to date?
Putz @ 8
telling me us wrote it doesnt defend your motives for posting it. I highly doubt Billy Shakes had anti-semite douche bag WS losers in mind when he wrote that.
Your usage of the quote is out of context and irrelevant. Unless you meant it as an anti-semetic posting.
So what does the shakespere quote have to do with this story? Enlighten us…
I’ll save you the trouble… go back to your cube and watch your porn.
The Good News = $9 mm stock bonus
The Bad News = revision to his pension value incrased by $91mm….
@8 The lady doth protest too much, methinks.

“anti-semite douche bag WS losers”
