The tip of the iceberg might go back to the LTCM hedge fund bailout of 1998. Looks like another bailout in the works. I believe the Bush administration has to plant this stuff squarley where it belongs...on the Clinton years, or it WILL come back to bite them.

It would be awfully hard for the media to keep Rubin's name out of the story now, won't it? Especially if he's partly responsible for the potential collapse of the entire banking industry!

TOOOO LATE! This was a viable plan in January `01. But NOOOOooo! Jorge had to go the "bipartisan" route. Now, it would look like Jorge has come completely unglued and is desperately fishing for scapegoats.

Like it or not, this will go down in the history books as the Great Bush Depression.

Bush should demand the immediate resignation of Alan Greenspan. I don't think he has the power to fire him outright.
