A conservative legal group is suing the Treasury Department and the Federal Reserve to reveal exactly how the first $350 billion of the financial services bailout was spent.

Hopefully this will be informative.

The Obama administration has promised to put the second part of TARP on the web.

That's the way Cheney and Rove liked to roll.
