Arelcao Akleos said...: Well, AI, we can't really claim that it pays to be treasonous. As the 17th Century scribe put it:

"Treason doth Never Prosper!
What's the Reason?
For if it Prosper,
None dare call it Treason!"; 4/19/2008 12:03 PM
Tecumseh said...: Well, I know, I know. But still, it brings me close to despair when I see people like Ayers and Dohrn making it big. Not only did they not got to cool off their heels in jail for one or two decades (as they should have), but not they rake in the moolah, and gazillion dollars in grants, and are advisers to Mayor Daley and to Obama? That 17th Century poem is passé, man.; 4/19/2008 1:38 PM

Tecumseh said...: Good point, AA. Whatever happened to divine justice?; 4/19/2008 2:27 PM
