Remember that Alan Grayson guy?

He did a chat thing the other day ...

firedoglake.com

It's a bit disjointed, as those things always are, but he continues to have interesting things to say (particularly about war profiteering being treason punishable by death).

It almost seems like he's been reading this thread ... <g>

"Parallels? Absolutely. I used to think that war profiteering in Iraq was the crime of the century. But this is bigger."

"Think about this. Trillions of dollars disseminated to who-knows-what, in return for who-knows-what. Thousands and thousands of dollars for every one of us, sent to the Invisible Man. They must think we are sheep".

"AIG blew up because it was a casino that dabbled in insurance on the side. Just as Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac were casinos that dabbled in mortgages".

"The Fed will never make a deal. They’ll stall and dissemble. We’re going to have to force them to disclose the information".

"Casino + extortion racket. Exactly".

"Well, I’m serious about war profiteering. We’ve drafted some legislation on that already".

"If the dollar crashes, that certainly would revive manufacturing. At great expense, of course".

"On the war profiteering legislation, stay tuned. It won’t be long".

"Who says that there aren’t 72 virgins? Do you have reliable information on that"?
