106. Do you think that's a role I ever play?
Edited on Wed Feb-25-09 07:48 PM by JackRiddler
Search on site for guillotine and my nick, and see how many hits you get.

The point is, we're both clueless about who may be on this list and why. As you probably know, there are not 52,000 poor underprivileged billionaires, perhaps not even 500 of them.

I could be at least as amused that at DU, someone makes sure the poor enlightened government law enforcement agencies are being taken at their word.

"Traitors" is Bushista rhetoric. Plain and simple. Since our country has a bunch of real-live proven traitors in the outgoing regime and in the banking complex, it's wise not to diminish the term.

This is a questionable fishing expedition by the IRS to justify its existence. Wouldn't you prefer to see the government marching in and expropriating the banks and billionaires whose names are known and who wittingly generated the crisis and continue to enrich themselves even after ruining everyone else? What's happening instead? They're getting another couple of trillion pumped in - borrowed money to be paid off by taxpayers. That would be the regular ones, paying for the bankers.
