US marshals and FBI agents raid and shut down Stanford Investment Group's 
Houston headquarters based on SEC evidence presented to a federal judge of 
its fraudulent activities.

No doubt, as a recipient of ex-patriated capital from the Venezuelan 
bourgeoisie at its bank in Antigua, Stanford was only to happy to serve 
customers and government alike.

But here's a really cool part of this sticky mess:  Stanford lost money by 
investing with Madoff!  Don't you love it?  Here are  tomorrow's headlines 
today:

Ponzi Ponzied by Ponzi

Stanford considers legal action to regain some of its fictitious capital 
lost through fictitiously investing in Madoff's fictitious investments

Bigger Fool Theory verified.

Greenspan convinced Bigger Fool Theory can save economy if given a chance. 
Volcker heard to remark "We know it sure saved him."

Gordon Brown searches vainly for fool bigger than himself.  Tony Blair 
confident none can be found.
