This is ridiculous..........Rubin wasn't CEO or president of Citi...........he was on the BoD. Big difference. But even if he was guilty of the worst........funny mortgages and creative CDOs, he was one Dem among many Rs who control the banking industry. Its the R brand..........that is corrupted; not the Dem brand. And let's not forget who was president.........that was GW Bush in case you had forgotten. And the Bush administration was infamous for not regulating. So, Mel, truth be told...........you have nothing.....absolutely zero. >> Nope. Silly and greedy conservative bankers trying to get rich in a short period of time. Typical winger behavior. So everyone you disagree with is a winger. That appears to include Clinton's treasury secretary Robert Rubin. You are aware of his pocketing $100+ million while the housing crisis was being created. “Nobody on this planet represents more vividly the scam of the banking industry,” says Nassim Nicholas Taleb, author of The Black Swan. “He made $120 million from Citibank, which was technically insolvent. And now we, the taxpayers, are paying for it.” >> businessweek.com So, when did Rubin become a winger
