Good grief! Have they been that successfull in their brainwashing? You can't seriously believe that the 20 or so miscreants are irreplaceable? Even if it was 200, or 2000, it is just a job and one that was filled by a crook.

Someone else declared themselves "Not a crook" but was removed from a lofty office with only good result.

Do not believe the press clippings of the business press.... they are as controlled as was the Whitehouse press (which may still be...)

The fifth estate needs to step up and help the american people realize just what is going on.

I wonder how much they received in bail-out (directly or indirectly....)

Guess they are hoping for another downturn really soon....

Directly they received 10 billion which by the way they are trying to repay as fast as possible so they can start paying out huge bonuses again.

As fast as possible (not including the dividends declared) based on trying to get out from under the "cry poor but be rich" banner?

I guess that while J.P. is no longer around, someone is still able to count the stacks of cash.

I got something from Social Security saying they will be sending me a stimulus check for $250. Perhaps this is the US version of the cash for clunkers plan?

People here say that the $250 is supposed to be spent on Viagra.
