From $2B Bailout to $4B Buyout at Countrywide
Just late last year Bank of America infused $2 billion into the coffers of Countrywide Financial to support the floundering lender’s attempt to survive the subprime mortgage mess — which reportedly almost forced the firm into filing for bankruptcy protection earlier this week. Now with Countrywide’s stock weak and its value depressed, it is being widely reported that Bank of America is paying $4 billion in stock to buy out the company — in which it already had a 16 percent stake in convertible preferred stock after the bailout. It didn’t take long from a historical perspective.

Not Enough Rope in Administration's Lifeline' Program
The Administration has encouraged six of the nation’s largest lenders — Bank of America, Citigroup, Countrywide Financial Corp., The homeowners have to be more than 90 days behind on their mortgage payments, and call in once they get a letter from their lender asking them to reaffirm that they want to stay in their home. Just a few short months ago President Bush stood in front of the press and swore that it was not the federal government’s job to bail out either lenders who made bad loans or speculative homebuyers who purchased more home than they could rightly afford utilizing the so-called “exotic” or “liar loans” popularized over the past few years.
