Richardson: You Know Something is Wrong When Patriots face stiffer penalties than Bush and Cheney

[illinoisprogressive]

... Well, sort of. Richardson just issued this statement linking the New England Patriots spying scandal -- which cost the Pats a first-round draft pick and their coach a fine worth hundreds of thousands of dollars -- and President Bush. Does the link make sense? You be the judge...

"The President has been allowed to spy on Americans without a warrant, and our U.S. Senate is letting it continue," Richardson said. "You know something is wrong when the New England Patriots face stiffer penalties for spying on innocent Americans than Dick Cheney and George Bush."

3. Not that it really matters, but McLaren was banned from...

the Formula One championships and fined a hundred millon dollars just for stealing Ferrari's notes.

A hundred million bucks and and maybe another 150 mill lost during the 2 years ban.

But, kill a few countries, spy on your own people, and piss away half a trillion-- no penalty.
