Marcy Kaptur, other Dems, ask DOJ to consider criminal charges against Goldman.

[dixiegrrrrl]

"Democrats in the House are pressing the Justice Department to pursue a full-scale criminal investigation of Goldman Sachs, the bank hit last week with civil fraud charges by the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Led by Rep. Marcy Kaptur (D-Ohio), the group is asking more members of Congress to sign on to the letter to Attorney General Eric Holder requesting that "if the DOJ is not currently looking into this particular case, we respectfully ask you to ensure that the U.S. Department of Justice immediately open a case on this matter and investigate it with the full authority and power that your agency holds."

1. Good luck with that. DOJ's too busy prosecuting whistleblowers.

2. We shall see if their *consideration*

leads to action. My guesstimate: not bloody likely.
