Goldman Sachs Chief Executive Lloyd Blankfein has hired high-profile Washington defense attorney Reid Weingarten, according to a government
source, as the Justice Department continues to investigate the bank.

Can't tell if this is in the hopeful sign or more smoke and mirror BS. It seems like Blankefien having to hire a personal defense attorney is a sign
that he may be facing perjury, obstrucion, or fraud charges. All other would be covered by Goldman's army of Lawyers.
That's two big economic news items this evening, along with S&P's replacing of it's CEO.
I have zero faith that anything good for us will come out of this, and notice that the attorney is very well connected and has participated in the
defense on some very large cases. Here is his homepage, the rogues gallery is listed.
