Comment on What Eduardo Saverin owes America by rupert

What is funny is the desire of righties such as Rush Limbaugh to defend this guy. Isn’t renouncing one’s citizenship a mortal sin to these “patriots?” Or is that trumped by the fact that Chuck Schumer proposed legislation to prevent this in the future? Greed is good, the Republican motto.

I take my hat off to you. The teabilly is unaware of how Americans feel about them as a whole. The guy from American Spectator shouldn’t be allowed out of his cell. Boehner set a trap with the debt ceiling nonsense? Mitt’s demonstrating leadership? Politics is not their calling.

That “guy from the American Spectator” sent as many reporters as he could to Arkansas in ’92 to dig up (manufacture) dirt on the Clintons. I see he has since move on to senility.

Good column. I guess Jamie won’t lose his job–though other heads are rolling–but at least he might shut up for a while. Now if they could just get Dodd-Frank implemented….. Could that $2 billion “hiccup” cut into Jamie’s lobbying budget?

I think Jamie’s Glass-Steagall is half empty. We need the Glass-Steagall Act reinstated to keep arrogant gamblers like Dimon out of the government-insured side of banking.

Comment on Ted Nugent: draft dodger (deadbeat dad and creepy ‘teen dater’ too) by Ed Gentner

My nephew asked “Who is Ted Nugent?”….I told him he was a one hit wonder who did concert warm-ups in the 70′s for famous rock bands and then disappeared, turning up occasionaly to do a gig at a bar, mall opening, in court or on the police blotter. The revelations about his hygene or lack of comes as no surprise, what does come as a surprise is that anyone in their right mind would take this poltroon seriously, as a musician he’s a light weight, as a spokesman for anything he’s the joke that nobody laughs at.
