For those of you who read Warren Buffett's vomit inducing op-ep in the NYT yesterday, http://www.nytimes.com/2010/11/17/opinion/17buffett.html?_r=2&emc=eta1, I found the following spoof on what he should have said amusing.
"I would be remiss if I failed to mention my personal positions in this: I made a killing in Goldman Sachs and GE. My investments in Wells Fargo would have been a disaster if not for you. Don’t even get me started with me being the largest shareholder in Moody’s – that was some clusterf#@k. And considering all of the counter-parties that Berkshire Hathaway has, we risked being just another insolvent investment firm along with everyone else had nothing been done.So I must say thanks to you, Uncle Sam, and your aides. In this extraordinary emergency, you came through for me — and my world looks far different than if you had not.
Your grateful but wide-eyed nephew,
Warren."
