Saw this on the NY Times site just s little while ago. Couldn’t have happened to a better pair of scoundrals.

It won’t mean much tangibly to the families ruined by their shenanigans, but hopefully those folks will sleep a little happier tonight.

No, I don’t normally engage in scheudenfreude, but this is one of those rare occassions where I will make an exception.

They are disgusting…and as Elliot Spitzer said in Tucson yesterday, this is what deregulation…and not enforcing meaningful market rules is all about. Folks…there has never been a true Smith-ian free market…those with power, time, money and access will always try to make the rules guarding markets benefit them.

Hate to bring a note of cynicism to the party (so unusual for me, really ), but we should start a pool, hell, a couple of them, on how long they actually spend in prison (not their sentences, actual time served) and what date their Presidential Pardons become official.

Personally, I’m guessing sometime in the week after the general election in November 2008. With net time served at less than a year after the appeals process.
