It's the rumour of Senator Haircut as Obama's AG that has me reaching for the Lagavulin.
Oh, yes. So the govt could write amicus briefs supporting people suing every bank that every even looked at funding a deal where somebody can claim an investor was duped. Jesus, that would be the scariest thing in history.

Sebby has warned us that AG Edwards (hey, now that's an ironic coincidence) leaves nothing off the table when it comes to evil-doing. There's nothing like a little discreet pogrom to amuse and delight the elders of the Democratic Party, right, Hank?

When are "the banks" gonna get rid of their nonsensical holidays and let business carry on on days that everyone else is working. I'm looking at you, President's Day. You're fucking something up.

...For good reason.

I was being intentionally ignorant.

Arabs own them? Doesn't that violate the rule about not being involved in interest, or are they secular? or christian?

I was being intentionally ignorant about your being intentionally ignorant. And I can only assume your response was being intentionally ignorant about my being intentionally ignorant about your being intentionally ignorant.
