And so should you.  Wake up America.  Go to the money, we will take care of you and your family, Comrade.  Need a house, car or boat loan?  Sign here.  Don't worry, someone else earned it but YOU deserve it. 

Move along now, we have other people in line.  Be sure to catch those darling children singing in the lobby...

OOPS-
http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2008/oct/01/pelosis-pac-pays-bills-for-spouses-firm/
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has directed nearly $100,000 from her political action committee to her husband's real estate and investment firm over the past decade, a practice of paying a spouse with political donations that she supported banning last year.

Financial Leasing Services Inc. (FLS), owned by Paul F. Pelosi, has received $99,000 in rent, utilities and accounting fees from the speaker's "PAC to the Future" over the PAC's nine-year history.

The payments have quadrupled since Mr. Pelosi took over as treasurer of his wife's committee in 2007, Federal Election Commission records show. FLS is on track to take in $48,000 in payments this year alone - eight times as much as it received annually from 2000 to 2005, when the committee was run by another treasurer.


The line forms to the Left, comrade.

Obama follows the Chicago model.

Pelosi follows the Baltimore model.

Not much difference.

Even better, or worse really, is this-

House Oversight Committee Democrat Henry Waxman has already summoned the former chief of Lehman Brothers, the failed investment bank whose collapse stunned the nation last week, to testify under oath before his committee next week.

And late today, Waxman publicly blasted the former Wall Street titans for not cooperating with requests for documents and emails, saying Lehman's counsel has told the committee "although these documents did exist at one time, they were typically "discarded.""

"It is difficult to understand how Lehman Brothers is unable to produce a single internal document that went to or from the CEO's office over the past six months," the letter stated. "It is also difficult to understand why there is no log, file, or other record documenting where these internal documents went." 

I'm beginning to see why DC opposes the Supreme Court Heller decision.  The camels back is creaking, folks.  People are royally ticked off.  This could get REALLY ugly.

What does Heller have to do with corporate malfeasance?

He's hinting at the "reset" button.

I think we're not that close yet.  Won't happen until civil liberties really start to take a beating.  Crooks don't cause you to overthrow governments... it's tyrants that cause that.
