"People realized that Bear Stearns just came out the other day saying everything was fine," said Paul Nolte, director of investments at Hinsdale Associates. "So, two days later, why would they need this funding from the Fed and JP Morgan? If it's like that for them, what is it like for Merrill Lynch or for Thornburg Mortgage?"

I've said many times, these banks are lying about their situation regarding tomorrow for them and only telling what coming clean on things as they become yesterday.
