From: Minister of the Treasury Paulson

Subject: REQUEST FOR URGENT CONFIDENTIAL BUSINESS RELATIONSHIP


Dear American:


I need to ask you to support an urgent secret business relationship with a transfer of funds of great magnitude.
I am Ministry of the Treasury of the Republic of America. My country has had crisis that has caused the need for large transfer of funds of 800 billion dollars US. If you would assist me in this transfer, it would be most profitable to you.


I am working with Mr. Phil Gram, lobbyist for UBS, who will be my replacement as Ministry of the Treasury in January. As a Senator, you may know him as the leader of the American banking deregulation movement in the 1990s. This transactin is 100% safe.


This is a matter of great urgency. We need a blank check. We need the funds as quickly as possible. We cannot directly transfer these funds in the names of our close friends because we are constantly under surveillance. My family lawyer advised me that I should look for a reliable and trustworthy person who will act as a next of kin so the funds can be transferred.
Please reply with all of your bank account, IRA and college fund account numbers and those of your children and grandchildren to wallstreetbailout@treasury.gov so that we may transfer your commission for this transaction. After I receive that information, I will respond with detailed information about safeguards that will be used to protect the funds.


Yours Faithfully Minister of Treasury Paulson

Op/Ed: Sarah Palin: The View From Gor

Gorean slave masters expected to vote for Palin


Quote:
Now that Alaska Governor Sarah Palin is running for Vice President on the Republican ticket, many groups are asking what will this mean for them: the liberals, the feminists, the inside the beltway crowd, and the business as usual oil fat cat crowd. But a key demographic has not yet made up it's mind - and the Gorean vote may be crucial in this election. So allow me to break down the positions for our Gorean friends and neighbors.

Foreign Policy: As the Priest Kings have decreed, the sea west of the Thassa is unknown and uncharted territory, much like the other side of the Bering Straight. We all agree that any Goreans who have been near the sea are certainly foreign policy experts, like Sarah, so there is a natural sympathy that should help Ms. Palin in her quest for the Gorean vote.

While Gorean slavers might like to obtain Earth women as their slaves, many of them don't like going to Earth and only recently obtained passports - if they leave their home world at all - another parallel. Will the barbarians of Washington be too much for the Proud Alaskan? What about the foreign world that is Canada? Again, Gorean foreign policy and experience is similar to Sarah Palin's impressive qualifications in this area. Russia is a next door neighbor to Palin's Alaska, but no one NO ONE mentions Canada as another bordering country, with two distinct foreign languages. Doesn't that make Palin a double expert? What's that aboot, eh?

Nothing should make a Gorean more proud than the likelihood of continued war over natural resources. So Sarah's idea of having Georgia and Ukraine join NATO is a natural - even though they have nothing to do with Europe, and will in antagonize Russia while Russia controls most of the energy for those self same NATO allies. ...

It's amazing how far that "newspaper" has sunk.

They don't talk about anything but griefers, Gor, IntLibber, Woodbury/Tizzers, w-hat, etc. Even post 6 is ruined because of all the greiferkiddies who hang out there now that Pixeleen has provided a playpen for them.

I can't believe I am saying so, but I think I may have liked it better when Prok was dominating the place.

Pixeleen ran that thing into the ground. Well, further into the ground.

That's what happens when the people who run a publication have massive egos, I suppose.
