If you read Michael Lewis' latest Bloomberg column, Bashing Goldman Sachs Is Simply a Game for Fools, quickly, you might think it's a brutal take down of the newest Wall St muckraker (Taibbi) by the grand marshal of Wall St muckraking (Lewis). Fortunately or unfortunately, depending on how you look at it, this column seems to be satire. I can't decide which I'd prefer to see, a Lewis/Taibbi Tag Team, or a knockdown drag out between the them. In any case, a good read.

America stands at a crossroads, and Goldman Sachs now owns both of them. In choosing which road to take, ordinary Americans must not be distracted by unproductive resentment toward the toll-takers. To that end we at Goldman Sachs would like to dispel several false and insidious rumors.

Thanks, Mike.
