The American people don't like bailouts, especially of my close relatives." Cousin George Herbert Walker and brother Jeb work for Lehman's investment/private equity arm. They kept their share of $2 billion in bonus money and ended up with Neuberger Investment Management at half price, with no money down. Bush corporafornicated to the end of his term.

It's a lot more convenient than taking personal responsibility.
