Labrador,

I get your point. The only problem that I see is one of extradition laws and that little matter of the separation of church and state that we hold near and dear in this country. Except among the Bushistas who desperately want to undo the good sense that this country has maintained for 225 years.

Berardino would look good in a suit with wider stripes, don't you think? He may be a pinhead, but that doesn't mean that prison stripes wouldn't be more appropriate than prison stripes.

Re: But those who have done wrong should be punished and those who knew.

That may be casting the net a bit wide. For instance, I knew a decade ago that Andersen was engaged in a pattern of deception and rule-jiggering to give cover to their criminal enterprise. Should I serve wide stripe time simply because I knew? Let's just stick to the perps. And not the ones who get a permanent home in the California prison system for stealing a pizza, courtesy of the insane "three strikes and you're out" nonsense.

In this country, we coddle criminals, as long as they can afford the attorneys. What a crooked racket our supposedly impartial jurisprudence system has turned out to be. Grrrr.

Cheerio!
