I wish I was a law school dropout. Sallie Mae is a bitch.
Funniest thing about this bunch of weasels, they lose by destroying the economies of the world, but they do it anyway. Reminds me of the old joke about the scorpion.
(Asks frog to ferry him over a stream, fatally stings frog, as they are sinking, explains "I can't help it, I'm a scorpion.")
Here's a great article in today's NYT by Paul Krugman entitled, "Blue Double Cross":

Former South Korean President Noh Mu-Hyun is dead by suicide after jumping off a rocky mountainside near Pusan, South Korea. (I thought catholics weren't allowed to do that.)
In a strange twist, it's very similar to the 1987 suicide of Republican Budd Dwyer, though without the publicity. Both were accused of taking kickbacks and abuse of office, then committed suicide rather than face a certain prison sentence.

Do not look at the video linked to on the page to a video. No, that's not an insinuation that you should look. It's revolting.
(Moderators: People would have found that wikipedia page on their own. I'm posting for the content, not the link to the video.)
After Jesus' General's explanation, it all makes sense...
