Two "Told Ya So" conclusions

First, in posts almost three and a half years ago, I opined that Natalee Holloway was likely kidnapped into prostitution from Aruba. Now, apparently, the prime suspect, Joran Van Der Sloot, seems to indicate that both he AND his father, a prosecutor/Judge on Aruba, had knowledge of the kidnapping involved.

One of the things that happens when you're an old cop is that you don't lose your accurate sense of suspicion. This proves it.

Second, one of my tested, reliable informants, the Rivrsis. heard a news article, unfortunately not remembering where, that made a definite and HIGH correlation between donations to political campaigns and which companies did/didn't get bailed out by the US gummint. The correlations is so good, apparently, that it's likely that probable cause exists to start an investigation and get subpoenas and search warrants going for what may very well amount to the richest sale of political influence in recorded history. Of course, the Rivrsis also pointed out that there's not much chance of a prosecution, since both the current and next administrations are involved in this apparent corruption up to their eyeballs.

Does Grand Larceny amount to Treason when the amounts are close to Four Trillion Dollars?

Generally, I'm not in favor of the very nasty game of "gotcha" that would ensue in our political system should we start prosecuting just-ended Administrations for acts of corruption. If this correlation can be proven though, it may be time to start such a prosecution with the Bush Administration.

But, it won't happen. Joe Biden is CitiGroup's "Man" in Congress, and has been for as long as the bank has existed, since he was instrumental in getting the Delaware money-pirates chartered. That makes the seal of silence almost perfect between the two Administrations.

Sic semper ignorati (that's us, folks).

kinda obvious...some of it from Fanny and Freddy has been exposed but the media other than FOX has played it down. Too bad about the big three auto makers and the UAW...maybe if they sold those corporate jets and gave the money under the table to the politicians they would get their tax payer bail out.

This country needs a new crop of thieves in Washington DC
