Explain to Me Why the Teabaggers Are Not Clamoring for the Heads of These Guys

Probably because the banksters who have been ripping off the states by collusion and bid-rigging are (a) white; (b) rich; and (c) Republicans.

Of course, if they were Black and working for ACORN, oh, how the outrage would flow!

Don't expect to see much coverage of this story on the Fox-Murdoch Right Wing Noise Machine.

  1. There must be something responsible for all these bankers turning crooked and robbing everyone including now we see the taxpayers in small towns and cities. What are they teaching these people at Harvard and Yale?

    That they are the elites and they can steal with impunity from their lessers. Those fuckers at Goldman and the other banks have no shame.

    It is true now as it has ever been: If you can use a pen (or a computer) to steal, you will probably get away with it. Use a threat of a gun to steal $100 from a bank, though, and you will go away for 15 years.

  3. Like Woody Guthrie wrote:

    Well, as through the world I've rambled, I've seen lots of funny
    men
    Some rob you with a sixgun, some with a fountain pen
    As through this world you ramble, as through this world you roam
    You'll never see an outlaw drive a family from its home

  4. Yes, as through this world I've wandered /
    I've seen lots of funny men; /
    Some will rob you with a six-gun, /
    And some with a fountain pen.
    -- Woody Guthrie, Pretty Boy Floyd, March 1939

    Things ain't changed since. Only difference is that for a little while, We The People regulated the banksters and kept them from doin' most of the robbing they use to do. Then, of course, the past 30 years all those regulations were dismantled because "government is the problem, not the solution"...
