Rich Skanks
January 25th, 2008Now that Fox News has settled her lawsuit, Judith Regan is one rich skank! The numbers aren’t out, but I’m sure she’s being paid plenty to not divulge the dirty details of her love affair with Bernard Kerik and whatever dirty laundry she has on the inept and repulsive Rudy Giuliani. I, for one, am disappointed that she hasn’t taken it all the way but I’m not surprised. Money talks and that’s all she was after. Tonight she’ll have dinner with some nasty Republican lawyers and laugh soullessly all the way to the bank. (If you aren’t familiar with her lawsuit, go here.)
Here’s an interesting little puff-piece. Titled, “A Dem is in the attorney general’s office — but only on wall” it is about the Attorney General’s portrait of Robert Jackson, FDR Democrat, on the wall. To me it is interesting because of the comparison it evokes of Jackson to Mukasey and FDR to Bush. On the Presidents: they are both sons of political privelege and wealth who have an affinity for civil liberty violations in the name of security. Now the Attorney Generals are linking to one another from the grave. I find it curious: nothing too terrible to look too far into, but that comparison has always been there to me of Bush and FDR when it comes to civil liberties violations and why I don’t overreact. The President’s reaction is proportional to our challenge, like FDR’s; before you get on Bush for the PATRIOT ACT or whatever other indignation (real or imagined) we should talk about the Japanese, interned.
