Waterboarding Timmy Striving for transparency If we waterboarded Timmy, would he let on we've been took? If we waterboarded Timmy, would we find that he's a crook? Would we learn how BlackRock's no-bid gifts from Timmy were acquired And discover why his Wall Street pals think he has been inspired? If we waterboarded Timmy, would we find it's been a ploy? More Citigroup chicanery employing their boy toy? A faster way to get their mitts on more taxpayer dough – Prime-plus-thirty interest rates apparently too slow. If we waterboarded Timmy, would we find it's been a con? That Ken Lewis protestations are a scheme to lead us on? That "saving" Merrill Lynch was Timmy's patriotic scheme? They had to scuttle BofA – Citi's his home team. We have learned that waterboarding was what made Bush and Cheney's day, And, when we need to make a point, the most expeditious way. So after Timmy, why not Paulson, Rubin and their ilk? All Wall Street's artful dodgers whose life-long credo's been "We bilk"?
