His name sounds like "cash & carry". Now you've ruined the joke by making me explain it. Thanks a lot.

I think the humor is more of the "oh dear god, I need a drink" type of humor. You know the type of humor one tends to expect from the Bush Administration.

See, Kashkari is a former VP for Goldman Sachs. Also, incidentally, where Paulson hails from, and also, incidentally, a company heavily affected by the credit crisis.

It's kinda scary that no one seems to be going "Uhh...wtf?" about this. In the MSM, I mean.
