8. I hate to admit it, but god I love that sign!

[bluestateguy]

2. And how many of these execs and/or their trophy Stepford Wives do you think were actually home?

I'm sure these folks meant well, but I question what was accomplished.

3. The news coverage is the goal

6. Ok, when you're so self-important you need your own security guard ...

... :puke: :puke: :puke:

[malaise]

11. Or when you're scared

shitless. :rofl:

12. the security guard would have been provided by AIG, my father's employer provided

them at various times.

7. Did Mary Hughley break fed law

by placing a letter without postage or processing by the post office, in the mailbox?

9. They would have been better off rushing the security guard and trashing the house.

Obviously AIG Executives do not give a shit about anyone or what their actions did to people.

As long as everyone keeps playing by the same rules and accountability, nothing changes.

10. That security guard looks just a little mobbish. Just saying that he looks

like, oh never mind.

13. Not so long ago, these people would have been tarred and feathered.

People like these, and those who close plants for profit, would have been tarred and feathered not too long ago. Today, these villians are worshiped at their local church services and escape with impunity.

They attack and abuse the communities in which they live. The worst among them are actually destroying our country. Lets call a club a club for a change.
