    Has Goldman Sachs Gone Back to the Good Old Days?

    With the rest of America still mired in the recession, Goldman Sachs has paid back $10 billion in bailout money and announced record profits. Is it a reason for public relief or public outrage?

    With the rest of America still mired in the recession, Goldman Sachs has paid back $10 billion in bailout money and announced record profits. Is it a reason for public relief or public outrage?

Why isn't she getting media treatment a superstar Secretary of State deserves?
