Bring in the clowns…….. today we have the House Financial Services Committee hearing with Bozo, Cookie and their magic box of tricks. Watch em make $700 billion disappear! You can view the hearing online here.

One of the things Paulson said yesterday was all telling. When it was suggested that he not be given the full $700 billion at once and have to come back for further requests his response was:

“I don’t like to be in this position, asking for things and, you know, answering to the American taxpayer.”

Gee that’s just too fucking bad Hank!
