It isn't difficult to wonder if it is his ability for smooth talk which made the Fabulous Fab so successful in Goldman Sachs. Or is it the strong French accent? Or would it just be the the forked tongue really made it easier to baldly lie to widows and children, and dump bad investments on them?

Last April 16, the SEC filed a suit against Goldman Sachs for defrauding investors at a scale big enough to accelerate the inevitable burst of the housing bubble and its ramifications on the global economy. And they've taken to task the financial whiz kid, Fabrice Tourre.

Except Fabulous Fab, we beg to disagree or the SEC would like to.
So in another round of Senate Panel sessions, America watches with baited breath and maybe half the comprehension (who really understands what these hedge fund people do?) as it is seen if we're watching the next Wall Street without Shia Labouef, but with possibly the same slick hair AND a foreign accent to boot.
