When It Comes to Getting a Fat Bonus Goldman is Ready to Sell its Soul...er...We Mean Apologize

So desperate are the super rich folks at Goldman when it comes to amassing even more wealth, that they have now stooped to apologizing! The Financial Times is reporting that Goldman is apologizing for their role in this crisis. And don't worry they are not getting away scott free. They are throwing us a little bone of a promise to loan $500 million to small businesses, if we keep quiet and let them keep their $20 billion bonus hoard. Talk about negotiating skills and deal terms. We do have the best and the brightest bulbs at Goldman. Mama America is proud of its gold-diggers.
And while they could not bring themselves to apologize for an entire 12 months since the crisis unfolded, one whiff of their precious bonus pot disappearing, is enough to get these folks groveling. Who needs enemies when we have our very own "patriotic" Goldmanites. So Mr. Blankfein thank you for letting us impoverished Americans, share some morsels from your Cake. Marie Antoinette would be proud.
