What did Terry Macauliffe make off Global Crossings? A hundred million.. That was years ago. I guess the pay scale improved for some.

For all of you using the “nowadays it could be true” angle, quit making excuses, and face up to the fact that your bias made you fall for it.

Under the relentless thrust of accelerating over-population and increasing over-organization, and by means of ever more effective methods of mind-manipulation, the democracies will change their nature; the quaint old forms—elections, parliaments, Supreme Courts and all the rest—will remain. The underlying substance will be a new kind of non-violent totalitarianism. All the traditional names, all the hallowed slogans will remain exactly what they were in the good old days. Democracy and freedom will be the theme of every broadcast and editorial—but Democracy and freedom in a strictly Pickwickian sense. Meanwhile the ruling oligarchy and its highly trained elite of soldiers, policemen, thought-manufacturers and mind-manipulators will quietly run the show as they see fit.

- Aldous Huxley, Brave New World Revisited, published 1958

Interesting. On Cavuto they were saying how much Wall Street hates Holder and how Holder disrespected Diamond making her wait an hour for a scheduled meeting. Must be all b.s.

This is a donation to the DNC. Bet Dems won’t be outraged.

They aren’t paying that much money for Holders’ stupendous intellect.

Would they pay that much if his black pal wasn’t squatting in the White House?

Eric Cantor’s probably apoplectic. Makes his compensation package look sick.

You were getting me until I got to this part. "Holder will also fetch morning coffee and breakfast orders for CEO Jamie Dimon and board members."

How I wish it were true.

That sounds like 1%er salary.

That or a kickback.

Isn’t there some sort of quarantine that they go into before taking lucrative private sector money?
