Goldman Sachs was converted from a investment bank to a commercial bank one Weekend

OMG! That's awful.

in order to ensure it receive the TARP funds

Ummmmmm.....I don't think you needed to be a commercial bank to get TARP. AIG, CIT, GM, F, FNM, and FRE received TARP funds and aren't commercial banks.

I think you're confusing Treasury/TARP with Federal Reserve/Discount Window.
