I can imagine they’re embarrassed as hell, but it’s just remarkable Prez and the financial SWAT team would actually be grinning like idiots in front of the visual press while the financial system is bleeding out.  What else can you make of this but: “Good job, Brownie Paulson!”  and “Good job, Brownie Bernanke!”

Before the Coke is all gone, break out the bourbon!
