I think Buffet's made the calculation that the bald man will get his money from congress and give a good chunk of it to GS. AIG looked like a loser, but it's WAY up.

Buffett has a very long time frame for his investments though. He sees something in GS that he likes, and he's not worried that he'll live to see it to fruition. And he has an interest in avoiding a wholesale market meltdown. Now I haven't dug into the details of what he got in return for his money, but you know it's a better deal than you or I could get.
