Although someone should be held accountable (obviously Geithner is too busy to think things through), I shouldn't demonize anyone. Oops, I would like to apologize to Assistant Secretary Kashkari.

Barry please make this a cause célèbre to get out the populist torches and pitch forks. From this past week's Sunday news shows I thought that the Geithner may have "got it" and not been captured by Wall Street. This video say that THIS IS NOT TRUE!!! Congress needs to hold public officials accountable (read Congressional hearings), maybe like former Goldman Sachs banker and now acting Assistant Treasury Secretary and TARP architect Neel Kashkari. Wow, I cannot express how ANGRY I am. Barry, please make this your cause célèbre!!!! The conclusions of the video makes me SO ANGRY!!!

So we have leverage on already internally leveraged derivatives? It's like more shit and a bigger fan...
