    is a story from NY magazine...based in the heart of americas financial sector, detailing scandalous confession from ONE MAN and his hellbent rampage to destroy our patriotastic economy?? who else but some 50 year old banker with a prostate the size of a basketball and 6 minutes of powerpoint knowledge would seriously believe this?

    its like saying the engineer who held CA's network hostage is responsible for its billion dollar bankruptcy.
