With dire warnings from GWB sounding like his famous "mushroom cloud" threats...
"More banks could fail, including some in your community"
-GBW Bush, Sept 24, 2008
...Congress passed GWB's bank bailout plan.
Did Treas Sect'y Paulson know some banks didn't need GWB's bailout money? We'll never know, what we DO know is Paulson is a Wall Street guy, banks are not unionized, and CITI Group got the best deal of all - in just 48hrs GWB's Treas Sect'y gave CITI an early Christmas present, no business plan required.
