I watched this chumps testimony yesterday. I'm not surprised at all someone knocked him out. I guess when you walk away with almost half a billion dollars, a punch in the face is a small price to pay. :mad:

Those bastiches should be reducing their bonuses to bail out the world's financial woes. How fair is it for them to walk away with billions torn from the losses of those who were given credit when they couldn't afford it?

 

Fair is fair and 0.5 BIL or 0.25 BIL is not going to break the guy either way.

 

Heartless bastiches.

That's what I'm saying. People lose their jobs and homes and are accountable for every last penny but people like this walk with fists full of money. Can you imagine?

have you no sympathy for the man? his shares were once worth about $650 million and by the time the company went bust and chase bought it they were only worth $100 million.

Mr Fuld said that he had in fact taken about $300 million (£173 million) in pay and bonuses over the past eight years.

 

 

Well we can thank the people WE put in office as well! They let this happen, but so did we.

 

My favorite from the Blasters:

 

He wasn't born in a cabin

He never fought in a war

But he learned to smile

Quote Abe Lincoln

And to get his foot in the door

 

So stand in line and wave the flagg

Stand in line to shake his hand

He says he's your friend

A friend of the common man

 

Yeah, right :pullhair:

 

GO OUT AND VOTE!

Yeah, it's great. By Todd Snider. The Vid is a hoot as well.

 

A Tale Of Two Fraternity Brothers)

 

The tale of two brothers...a memoir

Remember that kid we beat up back in college

Me, you, and Thompson out in front of the frat

And that hippie went home crying to his parents

I can't believe you got us out of that

How sweet was that

God we were drunk

Drove around all night after it with that keg in the trunk

And when the cop pulled us over

You talked us out of that, too

 

You got away with it

You got away

You get away with

The things that you say

 

I had to quit partying about a year and a half after you did

I don't regret it though, I think it was fun

Besides, it was the 70's

We were a couple of rich kids

And aside from that one hippie

We never really hurt anyone

Well, there's that other thing that I won't even say

As God as my witness I'll take that to my grave

Cause that was an accident

And you did what you had to do

 

You got away with it

You got away

You get away with

The things that you say

I worry forever

Never for you

You'll get away with it

You always do

 

You never did tell me what happened with you and your brother down there in Florida

I heard they gave you a hell of a time

Everybody around here was afraid you might lose

I told them not to worry cause I knew you'd be fine

Had me out here to Camp David a few times over the years

I think the first time we were teenagers sneakin' beers

Look at you now you old son of a person_without_enough_empathy

You got the run of this place

Unbelievable

 

You got away with it

You got away

You got away with

The things that you say

I worry forever

Never for you

You'll get away with it

You always do

You'll get away with

This new thing too(
