Rumor has it that Geithner et al are going to tap Gordon Gekko to oversee how Tarp funds will be dispersed.
This morning I was rudely greeted by two bizarre news headlines; bizarre because they were written about roughly the same thing, yet presented two diametrically opposed thoughts
The first was from the New York Times: Geithner Sets Limits on Bank Lobbying
The second was from the Wall Street Journal: Geithner's New Chief of Staff is Former Bank Lobbyist
What in the hell? Seriously? That used to be something you would only read in a local broadsheet while waiting on a sweaty tarmac to flee a collapsing South American dictatorship.
Yes, change comes hard in all senses of the word.
