Yesterday, the New York Times Editorial Team wrote: "A month into the Bush administration's $700 billion bank bailout, the effort has become as fractured as the ad hoc rescues that it was supposed to replace. As a result, the modest easing the bailout initially brought about in the credit markets is now being reversed over doubts about the Treasury's stewardship of the plan." The New York Times / The Bailout's Next 60 Days http://www.truthout.org/111708R
Naomi Klein, author of The Shock Doctrine, also reports on the Bailout Profiteers and the Multi-Trillion-Dollar Crime Scene ~ "The more details emerge, the clearer it becomes that Washington's handling of the Wall Street bailout is not merely incompetent. It is borderline criminal,"

As such, the Bush administration continues to be a thinly disguised crime syndicate and its so-called 700 billion bailout continues to award its own syndicate members at the expense of American tax payers.
If you're not outraged, you're on life support.
