Another Obama appointee on leave of absence

Another Obama appointee on leave of absence   

Another high-ranking official in the Obama administration has had to leave his position, and in this case, one has to wonder how he got the job in the first place. Scott Polakoff, the top bank regulator for the Treasury, has taken a leave of absence after internal audits uncovered his allowance of backdated capital infusions, which could amount to cooking the books for IndyMac and other institutions. But the OTS chief had also been responsible for regulating AIG as well (via The Boss):

I've said it before and I'll say it again...  you can tell a lot about a guy by the company he keeps.


It's looking more and more like Chicago-style politics as usual in the Obama camp.
