There simply is No Rule of Law for the rich and powerful. I say we demand

3. Aphorisms
"Eat the Rich."
"The man with the gold makes the rules."
"The rich get richer, the poor get children."
"Ya gotta have money to make money."

The REAL religion of America is business, with a big dash of evangelical Christianity. Max Weber, Geman sociologist and lawyer in the 1880's said it best in his essay (known to every freshman in any of the social sciences) "The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism."

Ugh . . . what ever happened to R-E-G-U-L-A-T-I-O-N?

Louis Brandeis, where are you when we need you?

7. Thank you!
I'm pretty happy...my sweet spouse left a really cute Valentine for me on the door into the house from the garage telling me to turn around at look at the dryer, whereupon sat a beautiful RED RED RED bouquet of spicy carnations, roses and white stocks! For a guy who didn't believe in that kind of thing when we met, he's come far!

Enjoy your Valentine. Since Skinner's extending this thing, there may be more popping up for us all!

Let the truth ring on Democratic Underground!!!!!!!!:loveya:

5. And demand that the division of powers among the branches
of govt be respected as well. No more "executive privilege" bullshit.
