I want to read just another short paragraph into the record. This is going to appear, I understand, in the Wall Street Journal tomorrow. I received a copy of it today. It is going to be in response to a wrongheaded editorial by the Wall Street Journal. They entitled their editorial a couple of days ago, ``Son Of TARP.'' As Senator Cantwell from Washington said, this doesn't look like TARP, it doesn't walk like TARP, it is not TARP. But there are a few critics out there who, because they cannot say anything bad about it, want to put a bad name on it and scare people away. This gentleman, Mr. Richard Neiman, let me say, first, is a superintendent of banks for the State of New York. He knows something about them, and is a member of the TARP Congressional Oversight Panel. So he most certainly understands TARP since he is an overseer of TARP.
