My head is still spinning; and I thought I was jaded.<br /><br />I hadn't heard of Allen Stanford before. But this confirms what I've believed for a long time: the villains that are household names are just flunkies. They're the street-corner drug dealers; the Koch brothers and Allen Stanfords and Richard Mellon Scaifes (and others we probably haven't heard of) are the kingpins.Tom Harperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05610417770240609022noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3397167328061019765.post-54458599877793199942010-09-01T10:42:05.237-04:002010-09-01T10:42:05.237-04:00We can be thankful for our last vestige of democra...We can be thankful for our last vestige of democracy, the ballot initiative, for bringing a little sanity to the drug issues. More people are less frightened of marijuana now that medical use is sanctioned in some states. We still have a looong way to go.<br /><br />I love Kiwis too.Dave Dubyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03279370558997246976noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3397167328061019765.post-43193952296484127632010-09-01T09:26:51.750-04:002010-09-01T09:26:51.750-04:00Thank you, tnl,

Maybe between the two of us we can convince one half of one conservative brain to mend their misguided ways - and maybe even some of our Democratic friends who've spent the last year whining.<br /><br />Superb job.Leslie Parsleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13743778482517634823noreply@blogger.com
