Are you so quick to accuse other people of fraud in your day job? I'm sure that goes over well.

Bush Queen

Am I the only one who thinks it is horribly wrong for these facist royals and Bushies to be yukking it up on the public expense?

So fucking swell of these wealthy murderous buffoons to have their little servants tidying up the WH and preparing haute cuisine while the masses in New Orleans continue to languish in Katrina ghetto doublewides, and the homeless in urban America wallow in the government induced poverty or the fine men and women of the military are held hostage by King ChimpBush in Iraq or Afghanistan. How many will die while Bush and Queen eat off their Lennox china?

How wonderful that these upper crusts can kick back and enjoy the freedoms and extranganzes that most of us can't dream of and that they deny us anyway. For so many, all they want is a secure job and healthcare, some shelter and sustenance and a socail welfare system that guarantees basic life needs for the poor, the children and elderly, but instead the average American is shut out of such luxuries while Bush and the Queen eat royally at our expense.

And meanwhile the inteligentsia on this board sit here without comment with no one ever mentioning the word "revolution". You are as wrong as Bush!

Anyway, I hope the dinner goes terribly wrong-maybe they get salmonella .

Unlike the associates who are complicit by their silence in the fraud that double billing and padding represent, I would quit before I would go along to get along or give two shits what some criminal with a bar membership thought. thankfully, I was too principaled to ever get sucked into the world of corporate greed and oppression.

Good for you, but that wasn't my question.

Blame Clinton.
  • The meal of five courses instead of the customary four will be served on gold-trimmed Lenox bought in the Clinton years.

You are obviously beholden to the man and too cowering in your own complicity to even understand what an ethical backbone looks like. Of course you are the type of phoney baloney "liberal" who thinks everything will be sunshine and roses when Bush's term ends in January 2009-as if that will happen without a fight.

that's why I was impressed when clinton decided to renounce his law license.

Why do you say that?

BTW, The Man prefers initial caps. Please don't make him angry.

Anyhoo, I'm still interested in whether your day job involves blindly accusing people you don't know of widespread fraud.

Your resounding endorsement has caused me to reconsider my position.

I think you're right, Hank. The BPF is likely Penske, but I'd bet this one is Slave.

You think his firm fired him when he failed to attract 3% of the vote?

eta: Did you notice he touted his travel to Mexico on his campaign site?

Wow. It was that low? He might've been fired, then, simply for the horrible ROI on all the yard signs they invested in. From my anecdotal review during my commute, they appeared to be everywhere.
