    CNN is reporting that the SEC found personal checks in his draw in an amount equal to $170 million. And he had another $160 million stashed away in his British operation. (Can you write a personal check for that much?)


    Planning to leave the country in a hurry Bernie?

    I think the nation deserves to see him have a serious loss of dignity and have it televised. What that loss of dignity is exactly, I will leave to others more directly impacted by his thievery.

    I say we let him stay out, under house-arrest. We give him some bubble wrap, packing tape, and a roll of stamps, and I'll wait for him to head to a mailbox. Talk about stimulus package!

    But putting him back in jail will mess up my plans for doling out some Batman-style vigilante justice.

    I'm still not convinced the three little kittens weren't involved in this - they've got their furry little paws in everything, just like the russian mafia.

    I'm still fairly shocked that no one has tried to off this guy. He fucked over a truckload of well connected people who don't like to get mugged by their hedge-fund dude....

    Sassy, I wonder that everytime I see a rooftop photo of Bernie or Ruth in NYSD. How easy it would be for someone to pick them off.

    @sassypants: I can't believe that people (especially the out-of-work variety) haven't at least tried to throw rotten eggs or cream pies at him while he smirks his way to court appearances. C'mon people! If I were out of a job that's what I'd spend my free time doing. Most likely in a homemade superhero costume.

    My friend got a ticket for riding his bike on the sidewalk. He hadn't paid some unknown other ticket so there was a warrant out for his arrest. He spent 36 hours in jail. How is this guy allowed to hole up in his mansions?

    @m4ximusprim3: I wondered what henrietta pussycat had been up to, since her nervous breakdown after that deeply regrettable and short lived stint as a backup dancer for shakira


    I just assumed she was passing her days in some dive bar with joyce de witt
