Defending the indefensible

Lehman Brothers’ Richard Fuld is angry:

Fuld said he took “full responsibility” for the bankruptcy of Lehman Brothers and “felt horrible” about it.

But Fuld said he has yet to understand why the federal government helped to bail out the AIG insurance company and other investment banking firms, but did not do so a few days earlier to save Lehman Brothers.

“Until the day they put me in the ground, I will wonder,” Fuld told the Congressional panel, seeming to seethe with anger.

“This is a pain that will stay with me the rest of my life.”

It’s really stunning.

    We should let them all burn. I am in the industry, and am a rah rah cheerleader for corporate America. Good CEOs are worth their weight in platinum. I condemn the left that wants to limit CEO pay. My objection is to bad CEOs. They deserve nothing. Lehman got what they deserved.

    Anyway, I came across your site through the Pajamas Media site.
