GSO Blogfather, Ed Cone, seems to have seen the light in a post entitled "Lawless". In less-than-100-word Cone fashion, it's all in the blurb - excerpted from a Rolling Stone article entitled, "Why Isn't Wall Street In Jail?".
I post the pearl-of-wisdom-worthy-of-Edwardian-reproduction in blue because it's just so damned enlightened and "progressive":
[W]hen it comes to Wall Street, the justice system not only sucks at punishing financial criminals, it has actually evolved into a highly effective mechanism for protecting financial criminals. This institutional reality has absolutely nothing to do with politics or ideology — it takes place no matter who's in office or which party's in power.
Why happy-fricking-birthday to me!!!! And just call me "relevant"! In standing against corruption/negligence/sloth in a Federally-funded program thirteen years ago (when no one else would) . . . and by refusing to let it go after discovering that crimes were committed . . . Dr. Mary Johnson was cool and progressive before Rolling Stone said so. And praise Jesus, Edward-Cone-of-the-Moses-Cone-Healthcare-Cones-whose-asses-had-to-be-covered has seen the light (only time will tell, and I expect not really)!
I'm still in that "bitter" pseudo-bipolar February mood (never fear, there's always someone in the ether willing to insert knives into the psyche and "take me out"), so I wasn't about to let it go ("fact-checkers" like Roch Smith, Jr will note that spelling is corrected . . . I was working on the netbook this morning, and everything's so tiny):
Why yes, indeed, Wilson, reading is. Too bad so few people in this ether really want to read more than a blurb.
De-linked, banned, cyber-stalked blogger-done-financially-wrong-from-Asheboro here. You know Asheboro. It's just 30 miles south, and only the land of Bob Morrison, "non-profit" Randolph Hospital's $700,000/year man - the man who DESTROYED this doctor-blogger's life-in-her-hometown with his malevolence, perjury, contempt and fraud. It's also the land of Mike Miller - who, in his "stewardship" of FNB/CO, lost over 250 million dollars in 3 years - destroying the retirements and lives of countless ordinary residents/investors who trusted him - and who was rewarded with the President's chair at Pfeiffer College.
Oh, and on the state level, we've still yet to indict Saint Elizabeth's hubby-fighting-for-ownership-of-his-sex-tape for ripping off his campaign to fund the skank.
(OBTW, these are LOCAL examples.)
You're for DAMNED STRAIGHT the justice system SUCKS at punishing financial criminals. It works OVERTIME to protect them. And which political party has presided over North Carolina's justice system for DECADES?
And on a local level, WHAT did most of our progressive, liberal, Hunt-Sleazely-Perdue-Clinton-Edwards-Obama-loving do-gooders & journalists in this blogosphere tell this "wack-job" doctor-blogger-from-Asheboro, but to "get over it" and "move on"?
It ain't just law enforcement that SUCKS. And it ain't just Wall Street that needs to go to jail
You'll have to forgive me Ed. It's my birthday today and I'm still nursing that dark mood that begins every February 2.
Back to Ed's thread, let the indignant Mary-bashing begin!!!
They secretly wish me well;)
