Barkeep, Another Round Of Pardons Here!

In 2004, the head of Goldman Sachs was Henry Paulson, now the Secretary of the Treasury. In Daily Kos: http://www.dailykos.com/storyonly/2008/10/3/11711/8484/799/618572 Smoking Gun: How Republicans Destroyed Economy ...in America those that have not cashed out, want to sustain this long enough so they can do so. And they have almost four months when the chief culprit will be dolling out billions as he sees fit, to solve his very own problem, at which time he can return to the same companies and reap the rewards. This is better than a pardon, but the rich Republicans will get it. All of this will be followed by pardons all 'round for the big drinking Wall Streets, Lobbyists, and the Republican riff-raff. Scooter Libby will be pardoned. Jack Abramoff may be pardoned. Things by then will have reached such an impasse that the Great Clueless will figger, what the hey! Tom Delay, Ted Stevens, an entire danse macabre of corruption and greed and hypocrisy. Some will escape to their farms in Paraguay, and Dick Cheney will be on a sunny beach of a country that has no extradition treaty. I guess we may thank heavens that it is a global economy, and sooner or later the decay and destruction will creep along that sunny beach in Petrovillia, and the disease will destroy even the powerful. A Danse Macabre, indeed.
