Anymore? The giant vampire squid sucking on the face of humanity should have clued you in before this, dude. <g> But he didn't write that stuff, some chick named Iris Mack did ... huffingtonpost.com She appears to be real and what she claims to be ... google.ca Anyway, you had me wondering if I'd been spoofed or something, so I looked down into the comments to see what people might be saying, and it gets even more interesting. Turns out she might be doing some very high class hooking, if this guy is right ... >>Careful readers wade into this story already abreast of Rubin's alibi... that he was stunningly hands-off during the so-called melt-down. This bizarrely self-effacing article is confirmation by his star witness. The guys on top ALWAYS get off, claiming they were asleep at the high-paid switch, feigning lack of involvement, cynically copping to shirking their responsibility to avoid accountability. "Turns out I'm a slob not doing my job." Public shame vs. doing time? Pleading disgracefully unethical negligence with your fingerprints all over the crime scene is preferable to going to jail for intent that is more specific. Intent is poorly disguised by both sleazysubplots of this story. Ms. Mack wants Mrs. Rubin to let her off this hook, because she neglected (until after the fact) to ask the cad she was cuddling (for over a year) a question to which she had already googled the answer. That's just tabloid fodder, though, a little something to smooth out the part we wouldn't otherwise swallow if it stood on its own. Rubin's self-avowed negligence (victim [it would now seem] to irresistible and naive beauty, not greed) is the Trojan horse of this story. His big fat alibi should slip all the way back to your brain stem... along with the sensationalized aspect of it.. "This is to say, I said to myself that there would be no other former Treasury Secretary appendages entering any other of my orifices." You stay classy, now, okay? <<
