Michael Phelps smokes a bong and eight people get arrested. Ridiculous.

The Phelps picture is at a 2+2er's house, who also owned the pipe.

But I guess tax laws and stuff still apply when you are in the military?

Gonna go do some research on the innanets now.

Regular state and federal laws still apply, as do the tax laws.

As for adding defacing government property to charges against him, I do think thats pretty crappy.

If they had not done that their estimation was that by two o'clock that afternoon, $5.5 trillion would have been drawn out of the money market system of the United States, would have collapsed the entire economy of the United States, and within 24 hours the world economy would have collapsed.

yeah; why aren't there more people talking about this?

How much you think Joan and Joe would spend if they thought that a total collapse of the system could be 3 hours away?

OMG! This is hillarious:

There is a lot there, but it's all funny.

10:24: Observation: They should put a pulpit in the House hearing room. It would be so much easier.

Quote:

11:31: Rep. Waters talks about the “Captains…Captains of the Universe,” which causes a staffer in a pink tie behind her to frown, shrug and grin at someone off-camera. She says she has strong opinions about what Congress needs to do to regulate this industry. Barney Frank actually physically intervenes and pulls her microphone away for a second. She asks her interest rate questions. Ken Lewis, who has a wicked sense of humor, is unable to resist starting, “well, first of all I feel more like a Corporal of the Universe than a Captain of the Universe….” which is somewhat sinister since he knows the phrase is “Masters of the Universe.” Rep. Waters isn’t having it, though. She cuts him off, compliments Wells Fargo for its work in helping her arrange loan modifications for constituents and then accuses Bank of America of having “loss-mitigation” workers offshore. Lewis protests that they do not, at least to his knowledge, have anything like that offshore but that he has 5,000 people working on loss mitigation. “Thank you! So you do have loss mitigation offshore!” Rep. Waters says, in complete contradiction of what Lewis just answered. Lewis looks at her, startled, with gigantic eyes, and his eyebrows twitch in alarm. The staffer in the pink tie, sitting behind Waters, openly stifles a “do you believe this?” giggle after Waters stops speaking. “I don’t know what you’re talking about,” Lewis finally says, firmly. “Do any of you know what I’m talking about!” Rep. Waters insists, her voice rising. Finally, the acting committee chairman, standing in for Frank briefly, asks Waters to stand down.

What's a "New" libertarian? Is that like a neo conservative?

Interesting insider info:

Fox News is in such financial difficulties that they can't afford to send as many remote units to Capitol Hill, or send cheuffered cars to bring people to the studios. They are asking people to make their own way to in studio appearances.
