The Democrats’ Goldman Parachute
Obama & Co. Claim to be Taking on Wall Street, but Permanent Bailout Bill Would “Benefit Goldman,” a Top Dem Contributor

Goldman Sachs Supports the Democrats’ Permanent Bailout of Wall Street

“In his self-styled war against Wall Street, President Obama appears to have a powerful ally: Goldman Sachs.

“The nation’s largest investment bank, famously cozy with top government officials in both parties, has tipped its hand to its shareholders, indicating that major financial ‘reform’ proposals will help Goldman’s bottom line.” (Timothy P. Carney, “Goldman Rallies for Obama in Wall Street ‘Reform,'” The Washington Examiner, 4/16/10)
