Countdown: Special Comment on the Bank Bailouts and Corporate Greed-Enough!

ok enuff. the entire whitey society is a giant ponzi scheme. Why send madoff to prison, when he was only doing what all financial/insurance/taxing systems are doing. No matter what the economies condition, the sun always rises each day and the world keeps on turning. Im sure that in a communist country you didnt hafta worry about being mugged/ carjacked by a crackhead.

Gee, who's president? Poor Keith can't cry out Bush's name. Keep on dancing Keith.

Dear Olbermann,
While GE, the parent-company of your network, was negotiating a $126 billion taxpayer-funded bailout, you signed a new contract raising your salary from $4 million to $7.5 million annually. You have used your show as a platform calling for the resignation of corp executives accepting excessive bonuses on the backs of taxpayers who are picking up the tab for these atrocious bailouts, yet you yourself have no problem in the same class economic rape that you accuse them of.

The bankers and wealthy in this country are calling everyone else losers? You can't bullshit me into believing that nonsense. You really expect us all to believe the wealthiest in this country earned every cent that they make? Most of them inherited their fortunes, probably never even had to write out a resume after college, because they already had a job given to them.
They are nothing but grown up rich kids who snort coke and play golf.

rediculous

swaggy..the fry cook analogy was not meant for any other purpose than too highlight the intellect necessary to wind these instruments down...without causing a total melt down of AIG in what surely would of been a panic and run on the accounts...I'm sure your father ran a successful business to be proud of...but unfortunately these credit default swaps were written with very difficult terminology that even the managers could not understand them..hence we need smart MFrrs to unwind/unload them

swaggajee...swaggy...no need to be hostile...my point is Graham (yes a repub) wrote it but the pres signed it into law...it would be like me holding congress and senate to blame for the last 2 years...abut it is the pres with the final authority..and if anyone...anyone ...should know what the consequences of that bill are...he is the last man to sign it and put it into law...period..end of story.....so I believe he knew exactly what the loopholes offered and went along for the ride..
