  7. I don't think there is any doubt that Paulson and Bernanke are behind this.

    My hat is off to them - this will certainly neutralize the LEH bankruptcy and make it more likely that Monday is a wash or melt up instead of a certain melt-down. ... Well played sirs.

    Funny how Temasek will actually make some money in their investment at MER if they get snapped at $25. their avg price I read was lowered to $21 after the capital raise provision kicked in
