Today's Bethlehem action is a part of protests at Bank of America branches across the country to collect and deliver “Taxpayer Proxies” demanding that the bank fire CEO Ken Lewis and commit to financial reform that puts consumers and workers ahead of profits.

  1. It'll be interesting to see how well attended this is.

    It was also interesting to read that Lewis was ordered by Paulson and Bernanke to not disclose any of the Merrill problems before the deal closed.

    In my opinion Paulson will go down as the worst Treasury in the history of our country.
