Just heard on the Lou Dobbs radio show that Henry Paulson, Treasury Secretary and orchestrator of the bailout, owns $500 million dollars in stocks at Goldman Sachs (he is former CEO of the company). Of course, Goldman is at the head of the line to be bailed out by passage of the bill.

Would criminal extortionist be too strong of a term to use in describng Paulson for his rip off of the people?
