The Wall Street cockroaches are big, powerful, numerous, and can eat you out of house and home, but they still can't stand the light of day. How coincidental that the replacement for Commisioner Chilton was named 45 minutes before his meeting with Bill Murphy. I guess when Obama said he was going to make changes, I mistakenly thought it meant replacing the bad apples not the good ones.
