Was Kristen Really So Bad

Where is the sheriff of Wall Street when you need him?

From http://www.nytimes.com/2008/03/17/business/17cnd-bush.html?hp :

the White House was willing “to bail out Wall Street at taxpayer expense,” even as it opposed legislation intended to ease the financial crunch on mortgages.

Wall Street needs another "sheriff" to bring order :

“We obviously will continue to monitor the situation and when need be, will act decisively, in a way that continues to bring order to the financial markets,” he said.

 

Imagine New Orleans getting $200 billion.

How much money is being "spent" ("invested?") in Iraq every day?
