That will fund acorn and planned non-parenthood for decades.

Yep.

Funny how much of the satire, today, seems like it COULD be true.

I got a laugh outta the whole thing...especially this one....

“By joining JPMorgan Chase, I’m simply cutting out the middleman -- the U.S. Justice Department -- and going to work directly for the great Jamie Dimon,” he said. “Plus, when Jamie Dimon calls you, or one of his many secretaries calls you, you pick up the phone immediately. Seriously, that’s what we do here in Washington.”

If the story said Jamie Dimon offered a hit man $77 million to take Holder out it would have been at least plausible.

It would be nice if this satire were true. Unfortunately Holder will probably will probably cause far more damage than working for the banksters. Odds are he will be appointed federal judge of some sort.

He isn’t worth a plugged nickel, let alone $77M.

...

They are buying political favors, and they’ll probably make a nice return on their purchase. Holder will do very little work, and true to your claim he isn’t worth spit, but the political machine rewards those who gives one of their own a lucrative do nothing job.

What, exactly, does Holder know of finance? Nothing. This is a buyoff to keep the DOJ away from JPMorgan.

Things sure have changed on FR. I posted a well-written satirical article back in 1999 and you would have thought I had just forced cow dung through the monitor by the reaction I got from most everyone.

Has to be satire. JP Morgan Chase has had a bullseye on its back ever since the Kenyan took office. And no CCO on Wall Street makes $77MM/year.

Buying influence. If I were President, I would ask for legislation that prohibited anyone who had spent ANY time in public office at the federal level (elected or appointed) from EVER working as a federal level lobbyist. Obviously, JP Morgan is not hiring him because of his ‘expertise’ - in anything. This guy is arguably a high-level criminal, but he's going to be a comfortable member of the 0.1% that the administration he served demonized.

You can remember 1999? Kudos!

OK. Now I see that it’s satire (after my blood pressure shot up), and I feel foolish. The fact that if this really happened it wouldn’t surprise any of us speaks volumes.

The sad part is that this is believable.

The worst part is that this isn’t even a funny satire.

I figured it was satire, Eric the Red is not worth a dime over $75 million a year as a waiter.

More than a few bit on it over at the source in the comments section, as well. And there’s a half-dozen Onion-esque articles over there, too. Been there, done that—602P email tax... ;)

The moderator should’t allow this kind of BS to waste everybody’s time. Next, they'll be posting recipes and knitting instructions.

You can’t be this gullible or stupid.
