What's in a Name?

Neel Kashkari, the Treasury's assistant secretary for international affairs, was selected Monday to be the interim head of Treasury's new Office of Financial Stability.
Or as W-3 says in his email to me:
Kash kari (Pronounced ? maybe - "Cash&Carry") - after "Kneeling" - you might notice.

A more appropriate name for the head of the government's "take the money and run" scheme could not have been dreamed up by Stephen King or Ian Fleming.

If it weren't so tragic it might be funny.

  2. no no, he worked with Paulson, so just another member of "the club"

    I hadn't really been paying attention, but I have heard his name a few times on the radio. Nice catch David.
