Bailout Bonanza

Man, what a time to be working for Wells Fargo Bank!!

Still reeling, despite a 25 billion dollar check from Joe Taxpayer, the banking giant is headed to Vegas this weekend for a nearly two week stay at the Wynn and Encore hotels.

It's to honor the top mortgage lenders. You know, some of the same kind of people who got us into this housing crisis in the first place.

Before you attack, I don't blame one solitary person for the housing collapse, nope, I spread it around to everybody just to be fair.

From Fannie and Freddie who gave loans to people who couldn't afford them, to the real estate agents who pushed people into homes that were a *tad* out of their reach.

Wells Fargo is setting up shop for 12 nights in an annual tradition.

This comes of course after some other high profile bailouts that were followed up by some ritzy high price junkets, that begs the question: "What are you thinking?"

Or more to the point, "Do you care what the public thinks."

Company spokeswoman Melissa Murray told the Associated Press that recognizing employees remains part of the Wells Fargo culture. She went on to say "it's very important that employees know they're valued."

Good thing, they can sit around patting each other on the back the next time the company needs a billion dollar lift, and don't get it.
