Off To The Big House

 

1. The part from his military service OK. At least that part was Honorable.

   Now, what about the lesser offence by the clever companies paying the bribes?

2. Not only criminal but stupid.  Did he really think somebody wouldn’t notice a Rolls Royce and a yacht and a mansion?

   As to your last comment about “Republican” in the header for the story: When I scan the news online, I guess from the sense of the lead header whether the story was done by an independent or whether it has AP origins.  Stuff that associates Republican, SUV, conservative, etc. with negative leads like you referred to is always AP, and I never read their crap anymore.

   They typically read
   Does leading Republican beat his wife?
   Sources say Republican beats his wife, a moderate Democrat, whenever Bush has a bad day, and is paid by big oil and special interests to do it whenever the news from Iraq is bad to distract her from telling the truth about the war. blah blah blah for two paragraphs and then at the end -
   Local police investigation revealed no beatings and the DA declined to indict saying there was no evidence of any abuse.

   ONE DOWN AND HOW MANY TO GO?

   I think the count would be 535.. call me a cynic, but I don’t think there is one single in congress today who isn’t guilty of bribery or extortion in one form or another..

   but that’s just me..

5. Squiggler—Sad, tragic, not funny about your Ex.

   Anyone remember in Heinlein’s “Starship Troopers”, as pro-military book as exists, the statement that Veterans do no better in post-discharge civilian life than non-Vets? It was presented as sad-but-true, in Johnny’s OCS training.

8. With all his ill gotten gains, he should be paying the entire cost of his own incarceration, else he gets the Club Gitmo Special, or the “eleven cents per day” treatment in some Turkish prison.

   No HBO, no gyms and qworking out, no law libraries.
   Just big rats, cold dungeons, and sore feet. :rulez:

   One down, 534 left (100 senators, and 435 congresscritters, less one in The Big House.
