Defenders of Goldman have been quick to insist that while the bank may have had a few ethical slips here and there, its only real offense was being too good at making money. We now know, unequivocally, that this is bullshit. Goldman isn’t a pudgy housewife who broke her diet with a few Nilla Wafers between meals — it’s an advanced-stage, 1,100-pound medical emergency who hasn’t left his apartment in six years, and is found by paramedics buried up to his eyes in cupcake wrappers and pizza boxes.

Matt Taibbi looks awesome naked.

If there were no Goldman, there’d be no Matt Taibbi.
Still waiting for our thank you cards,
the ghosts of Goldmanites past
Other potential comparisons:
1. Crack whore willing to do anything it takes for another hit
2. Circus clowns trying to stuff one more guy into the clown car even though they’ve run out of room
3. Pseudo-journalist using increasingly questionable metaphors to illustrate same story over and over and over and over and over and…
Sounds poetic but it’s still not enough to get the feds to arrest anyone there.
Goldman Sachs is like a whore that will do just about anything for money today, despite the impact on the future
Goldman Sachs is like a girl, the kind that make you feel cheap. They use you, and then leave you on the bed, cold, naked and crying.
Goldman Sachs is like my mother. Sure she has dementia, when it’s convenient.
now that the Navy Seals killed Osama , can they go after this turd ?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
Lloyd and Taibbi really aren’t all that different. One is a soulless douche that will do anything to succeed. The other runs Goldman Sachs.
Can someone please tell me one thing Matt has written about Goldman that is factually incorrect? Answer – NOPE!
Clearly you are not a bowler

He is referring to GS as “Phat”, not “fat”
Matt Taibbi is brilliant and hilarious. One of TheSideTrek’s faves.
Crack whore is better than a Goldman whore which is what you are.
