>>All Corporate Crooks belong in jail. I don't give a rat's behind whether they're Republicans (90 percent of them are) or Democrats. What will be interesting to see is how many Bushies had their greedy hands in all these Enron sideshow companies. 90% of corporate officers probably are Republican. But 90% of the crooks are Dems. Hark back to the insider trading scandals of the 1980's - the crooks were Dems. Same with most of the Savings and Loans, with the exception of Keating, who got crooked Dem Senators and one McCain, to do his bidding.

"All Corporate Crooks belong in jail" - True. "I don't give a rat's behind whether they're Republicans" - Either do I "(90 percent of them (corp crooks) are (repubs)" - Ridiculous. How can you not see how ridiculous that is? Do you suppose that more dems seem to get caught than repubs because the repubs are smarter, or are they just extra lucky iyo? I watched how Clinton conducted himself and CANNOT BELIEVE that so many condoned his behavior. Foriegn policy, womanizing, money and land deals, etc. And yet these same people seem rightoutsly outraged that someone else MAY be doing something wrong. Looks like it is based on party affiliation, damn the evidence. How do you rationalize that to yourself? Anyway, welcome back.

>>I took about a 3.5-month hiatus from posting to rehab third floor of my house. I've also been very busy at work and with jury duty, where I am a cog in the gears of democracy. Jury duty has nothing to do with you clogging the arteries of democracy. You made two mistakes in your statement, one explicit and one implicit: 1) Jury duty has nothing to do with democracy, which is good because 2) the USA is not a democracy What you should have said is that you were doing your "civic duty". Glad that you are doing "rehab" anyway.
