Red's Thought for the Day - Getting Away With It

Now that the Kinglet Bush and his evil ministers and minions are nearin' the end of their official elected and appointed capacities maybe, they are workin' on protectin' all the loot they acquired in government "service" without all that loot bein' discussed by the general public or tied up in legal entanglements. This is why so many of 'em appear distracted lately. Ye see, if ye have been a successful influence peddler and thief, ye will want to keep yer gains and get clean away with, yer gains. So that's what they are focusin' in on, how to keep that cash safe, socked away under the mattress.

Ms. Gale Norton, Secretary of the Interior, has resigned. She says ever' thing she did at Interior was based on the facts and legal, and she don't know nothin' about what her top aide was up to. Uh, huh.
