Here's the Video of Senators Chris Dodd (D - Ct) and Richard Shelby (R - Al) on Good Morning America, as they discuss the gigantic bailout of the U.S. Financial system.
As of today, bailouts or special facilities have been created for these entities:
- Bear Stearns
- Economic Stimulus progam
- Bad Mortgage Bailout Program
- Fannie & Freddie
- AIG
- "No More Short Selling" rules
- Fed liquidity programs (Term Lending facility, Term Auction facility)
- Money Market fund insurance program
- Special Loans for GM & Ford
We're not alone in wondering what Our Leader, Comrade Paulson, has in mind for us next week.
A Charlottesville/Albemarle Area RE Blog tracking the market's Boom Bubble Bust Bounce, from 2008 to 2013.

Are we a "Protected Market" once again? Time will tell. * Check out the microblogging on Twitter: @CvilleBubble *
