That is such a nonsensical statement.

One phone call to The One ought to clear things right up. Besides, he's saving the economy by buying BAC. He's just that kind of a magnanimous guy.

Exactly. He's wanted to be taxed more, so now he's put his money into action for the public good and bailed out the BOA so hopefully taxpayers don't have to.
Then again...thinking further about BOA's problem, I don't think anyone can save them....

According to this webesite http://www.kavkazcenter.com/eng/cont...14/13818.shtml, 'uncle warren' and 'cousin jimmy' are not genetically related on the paternal side. However, both trace to the same woman who existed 15000 yrs ago in present day Spain. The common paternal name suggests to me that incest occurred at least once since then. It's OK Warren, we all have at least one skeleton in the closet.
