"From the Back of the Bus"

If I loan you fifty cents and will need to have it returned on a date certain you would not be called United States Senator. The 100 United States Senators who represent citizens in America's 50 states need to be recalled. The human face of this tragi-comedy is Chris Dodd
(d-CT). Little 'd' does adequately describe the lower regions of humanity the 'august' body has sank. What was supposed to be the last barrier against tyranny by the majority has become the cash bull or cow of the misbegotten.

If Bernard Madoff fairly represents the neo-takers, what can be said of the gentlewomen and men of our 50 great states? I recall that on January 7, 2008, there did assembly some 15 'civitans' in Norman, Oklahoma, to discuss the putative campaign by Michael Bloomberg as a third rail candidate for president. One country boy derailed this disturbing notion. As a front for the social misfits of Wall Street, Bernard Madoff would have had a free ride had Michael Bloomberg been elected President of the United States. As it is, Madoff gets a free cot in a Federal prison. He should have gotten a free stay in a general population setting rather than a stay in a segregated venue. All criminals are equal, but some are more equal than others.
