WashingtonPost: "On the same day that the White House announced that President Bush is nominating California billionaire Roland E. Arnall to be ambassador to the Netherlands, the company he controls said it would set aside $325 million for a possible settlement of allegations of predatory lending tactics.
Arnall's company, Ameriquest Mortgage Co., is being investigated by regulators in 30 states. A $325 million settlement would be one of the largest ever in a predatory lending case.
Arnall is the firm's principal shareholder. He, his wife and their companies have been the biggest political contributors to Bush since 2002."
Read about some of the Ameriquest practices.
Bush is sending out his corporate criminals as ambassadors. After the Bolton embarrassment and the Rove debacle, what more can we expect? Bush names dog to supreme court?
"Appointing John Bolton to the post of U.N. Ambassador, here's what George Bush had to say: 'This post is too important to leave vacant any longer, especially during a war and a vital debate about U.N. reform'. But the President taking off for a month-long vacation during that war (and not for the first time)? No problema."
