Banks must "refill coffers"


WASHINGTON -- The U.S. is expected to direct about 10 of the 19 banks undergoing government stress tests to boost their capital...



...officials believed as many as 14 banks would need to raise more funds....

So does this mean they're planning a big bake sale or something? Or maybe going door to door with cookies? What do banks do when they need to raise funds?


To refill their coffers. Is that some kind of Republican thing, coffers? Who has coffers? I don't have no coffers, bunky, you can bet on that. George W. whatzisname, the jerk, has coffers - he said he was going to refill his. Maybe I should get a few. Do they sell them at Walmart?
