@jerseytarzan2 You are full of shit, they make money because they rigged the game and use the loot to install scum bags like themselves in power so they can loot more... home despot success is due to fascist corruption and cront capitalism.. Spitzer drew attention to banker criminals so he was set up , same thing with blagovitch

@jerseytarzan2

spitzer is  no angel and neither are we.... the message is clear.. DONT \FUCK WITH THE VIGS..

[jerseytarzan2]

@finefilth Your clever use of profanity has cut me to the quick. Short of being drugged, which Spitzer does not claim he was, exactly how do you end up in bed with a hooker if you are not looking for a hooker? In fact, hooker admitted that it was his fault.

Please take the aluminum foil hat off and come back to the real world.

Ken Langone helped elect George W. Bush. Awesome.

Hey Palast: CEOs aren't paid to use hammers or show people how to use them They are paid to hire the right people. Home Depot's success was not an accident. It was hard work.

Elliot Spitzer got busted because he was screwing whores. Ken Langone may or may not be a lot of things, but he is not a high priced, attractive whore. Spitzer was hoisted on his own pitard.

This is not good old-fashinoned muck-racking, this is nothing new but a repetition of "see how bad they are?" How is this, in any way, constructive? We already know they are bad, evil, vile, inhumane, etc. Please say something helpful.
