Citigroup to Wachovia
Hey! Now wait just one damn minute, Paulson helped us steal you last week fair and square!
Early last week, Citigroup Inc. agreed to buy Wachovia's banking assets for $2.1 billion in a deal brokered by the FDIC. In a surprising twist of events, Wells Fargo announced Friday that it agreed to acquire Wachovia in a deal worth $15.1 billion at the time, or $14.8 billion based on Wells Fargo's closing price Friday of $34.56. Wells Fargo's deal did not require any government support.
It's getting to the point where you can't trust your own fix anymore, and if you can't your own fix, what have you got? Anarchy!

His former "aide" Susan Ralston, who has been Karl Rove's right-hand woman for most if not the entire BushCo presidency reign of terror.
