*Bill Clinton (by Martin McLaughlin, November 1999). An agreement between the Clinton administration and congressional Republicans, reached during all-night negotiations which concluded in the early hours of October 22, sets the stage for passage of the most sweeping banking deregulation bill in American history, lifting virtually all restraints on the operation of the giant monopolies which dominate the financial system.

*Stanley O'Neal, the former president and CEO of Merrill Lynch, led his firm into the risky territory of subprime mortgage bonds that eventually led to its demise. O'Neal was named by CNBC one of the "Worst American CEOs of All Time," but when he was replaced by John Thain in 2007, he took with him $161.5 million worth of stock in severance. In 2008, he was appointed to the board of the aluminum company Alcoa but reportedly still has enough downtime to play golf several times per week.

*John Boehner joined with other Republican leaders in browbeating lobbying firms into hiring more Republicans and threatened PACs with exclusion from GOP briefings and events if they did not donate more to GOP candidates and causes. His style is smoother than DeLay, the GOP pit bull who openly stated "I dont give a rats ass about the law. Boehner smiles and talks in diplomatic terms but the smile masked a ruthlessness that says play ball our way or dont play in our ballpark.

*Sandy Weill, the former chairman and CEO of Citigroup was among those who pressed for the repeal of the Glass-Steagall Act and ushered in the era of deregulation in the 1990s. Shortly after Citigroup was propped up with $45 billion in taxpayer dollars, Weil used a corporate jet to take his family to a Mexican resort for New Year's Eve (a privilege he has since forgone). He is said to be incensed that current Citigroup CEO Vikram Pandit has declined to confer with him.

*President Barack Obama: during his campaign, President Obama promised to run an ethical and transparent administration. Under the President's bailout schemes, the federal government continues to appropriate or control -- through fiat and threats -- large sectors of the private economy, prompting columnist George Will to write: "The activity of political allocation of wealth and opportunity -- is not merely susceptible to corruption, it is corruption."

*Richard Fuld, the former CEO of Lehman Brothers, the storied investment house whose collapse set off the financial crisis, is starting a consulting firm Matrix Advisors and has done some work for Alvarez and Marsal, the restructuring firm helping to unwind Lehman. Last week, he told a Reuters reporter who tracked him down to his country home in Ketchum, Idaho, I've been pummeled, I've been dumped on, and it's all going to happen again. I can handle it. You know what, let them line up."

*Kerry Killinger, named "Banker Of The Year" by American Banker in 2001, there's been little word of Killinger's endeavors since he led Washington Mutual to the largest bank failure in U.S. history. Killinger's $100 million golden parachute, however, is still fresh in the mind's of many WaMu's native pacific northwest. Killinger was WaMu's CEO from 1990 until 2008, when he was forced out as the bank buckled under shaky loans and growing debts.

*Nancy Pelosi is working to shield lawmakers from federal investigators. Special legal protections for politicians encourage unethical conduct. Irvin B. Nathan, general counsel of the House of Representatives, sent a letter to Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr. on Monday about establishing a protocol on how to handle "hopefully rare searches and electronic surveillance involving members of Congress." Mr. Nathan failed to negotiate such an agreement with the Bush administration,
