You're really grasping at straws when it comes to making any correlation here. How does a bank that received TARP money (which was requested by and signed into law by Bush) compare to Haliburton receiving no-bid contracts (also under Bush)?

There are much better, and obvious, examples of the Obama administration putting corporate big wigs into political roles.

Your kidding, right?
so a major corporation disses the US credit and get extreme heat from the Obama admin.
Within weeks, the president of the corporation is ousted and in his place the head of a company that has received billions and billions from the Obama administration. Thats a coincidence?
