John Thain Is Priceless: TARP 2.0 Introductory Laxative

Pretty decent spoof of the Mastercard 'Priceless' commercials and solid Friday afternoon fodder.  All the Wall Street bailout culprits are named and TARP totals given.  Now, if and when TARP 2.0 is created to save Bank of America (anyone taking bets on when...?), I'm going to have a mild coronary and quit the site for a week.  The idea of bailing out Ken Lewis' decision to buy Countrywide and assume the liabilities of Angelo Mozilo might be too much for your editor.

So we own all these banks with our tax dollars. They are OUR bitches. Let's start by demanding some mortgage relief from them, and small business loan relief, and I always figured since we now OWN AIG that we could make a nice health care public option out of that corporation now owned by the American people.

Good suggestions, but not gonna happen.
