God? Karma? Maybe I was wrong

Just kidding, but I could be wrong about lots of stuff. What I'm not wrong about is that this is incredible. The Acorn Pimp has his nuts in a sling. He was arrested on felony charges and stands accused of trying to wiretap Sen. Mary Landrieu's office.

Karma, it works every time.

"As Buddhists, they know that the doing matters more than the attainment of reward, that to serve in this selfless way is to be free. Because of their belief in karma--the principle of cause and effect that permeates Buddhism and Hinduism (and Christianity, for that matter: as ye sow, so shall ye reap)--they are tolerate and unjudgmental, knowing that bad acts will receive their due without the intervention of the victim."...Peter Matthiessen, speaking of the Sherpas in The Snow Leopard

On top of everything else, he was being mentored, coached, and egged on by conservatives. If that's not a recipe for disaster, what is?

Yep - a big backlash is coming!

And not just against Wall Street - while some want to claim that the recent election in Mass. was about Dems vs. Repubs. it is becoming more and more clear that it is REALLY about people fed up with politricks and big business/government.

yes, and I think the Canadian musician is on to something. I think we all need to start speaking up, in whatever way we are good at--to let the world know when a company, person, organization, etc., is not being accountable to the people who are paying for a service or product. As long as Americans put up with the status quo then we deserve what we get IMO
