So, the Secretary of the Treasury, a former CEO of Goldman, I might add, put this gem in his 3-page (!) plan to spend $700,000,000,000 to "fix" the financial crisis:
"Decisions by the Secretary pursuant to the authority of this Act are nonreviewable and committed to agency discretion, and may not be reviewed by any court of law or any administrative agency."
In other words, gimme $700B, and don't expect me to tell you why I'm doing anything with it, and don't expect anyone to be able to question or change what I'm doing with it.
