Ok, here's my deal, and it's perfectly fair; if he does flee, we should throw the judge in jail for being an idiot. Furthermore: Bernie is out on $10 million bail, of which only 10% needs to be posted. How much is that? $10 million = 1/5,000th of what he allegedly stole. $1 million = 1/50,000. Any sane person would be looking to flee. The question remains as to who is the bigger idiot; Bernie, or the judge? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ Thanks for being part of "PoliticalForum" at Google Groups.
