Inside Lehman's Last Hours -- AR Sorkin With Previously Unseen Bernanke Emails (VIDEO)

CNBC Video:  Andrew Ross Sorkin on Squawk box -- Aired this morning

Short clip, runs 3 minutes.  Bernanke and Paulson would never lie. 

I've written from the beginning.  They could have saved Lehman.  They chose not to.  That's a good thing.  One of the few good things to come out of the crisis.  The problem for Bernanke, Paulson, Geithner, Kashkari and everyone else involved is they've been lying about it since that day.  The decision was made to enforce moral hazard and Dick Fuld was their target.  They just aren't willing to admit it.  Goldman Sachs would now have one fewer competitor, thanks to Hank.

Goldilocks has played a trick on America. Growth is not warm enough to prevent hard-core unemployment climbing to post-war highs and sticking at levels that corrode the body politic, but not yet cold enough to overcome the fierce resistance of the Fed's regional hawks for a fresh blast of stimulus.

Los Angeles school named after Al Gore

He's the first vice president to have an L.A. school named after him, sharing the honor with author Rachel Carson. Fittingly, the campus will be devoted to environmental themes. But there's a catch.
