For a day or two, I was afraid I took this post down the wrong path by appearing to call out non, or not, for profit CEO salaries. Although worthy of the discussion, that was not my intent. I was attempting to highlight the conflict in Rockefellers statements, his funding vote, and "utilizing" taxpayer dollars to further feather the Rockefeller nest. Each time I learn of situations like this, where our elected representatives, right before our eyes, take a percentage off the top for personal gain, like the Reid or Murkowski land deals, Rocky and NPR, Waters and targeted stimulus, Rangel and the monument, or our values leaders, eg Ensign and the staffer and the husband (aka "senator seeks curious couple"), Edwards and his "other family" (sort of a throwback to the old movie -- The Impeccable Mr. Pennypacker), the song playing in my head gets louder. But that's OK, as it is a Toby Keith / Willie Nelson duet, and the lyrics go like this......a man has to answer for the wicked he done, they'd coil the rope in Texas, find a tall oak tree, round up all them bad guys, hang 'em high in the street, for all the people to see, we'd raise up our glasses against evil forces....
