Goldman Sachs Reveals It Shorted Gulf of Mexico

NEW YORK (The Borowitz Report) - In what is looming as another public relations predicament for Goldman Sachs, the banking giant admitted today that it made "a
substantial financial bet against the Gulf of Mexico" one day before
the sinking of an oil rig in that body of water.


The new revelations came to light after government investigators turned up new emails from Goldman employee Fabrice "Fabulous Fab" Tourre in which he bragged to a girlfriend that the firm was taking a
"big short" position on the Gulf.


"One oil rig goes down and we're going to be rolling in dough," Mr. Tourre wrote in one email. "Suck it, fishies and birdies!"


The news about Goldman's bet against the Gulf comes on the heels of
embarrassing revelations that the firm had taken a short position on
Lindsay Lohan's acting career. More here..

You may be on to something brother. Bushs brother was involved in the security of the buildings (WTC) on 911, as was Dallas' mayor, he mysteriously came to Dallas with his commie crap and won. They are all maggots feeding off dead bodies and destruction.

Hmmm........ Could this be another smoking gun?
Barry sends SWATT teams to Gulf oil platforms.
Hmmm...... Who shorted airline stocks just prior to 9-11?
The NEW Investigation of 9-11 needs to take a CLOSE look at Goldman Sachs.
I wonder if there is a connection between Goldman a Larry Silvestein.
