3. His wife deserves that from him, at least
 After the way he drags her out there to prove he's a good hearted guy after all.

Just take your lumps, governor. Don't drag your family into it.

9. I've been saying for a long time that Bush, Powell, and the
 entire upper level of his mis-administration AND all of the Senators that voted for the IWR should commit Seppuku on the Capitol Steps. There is no way to apologize to the 100s of thousands of dead innocent civilians of Iraq. We have no honor as a nation.


Finally we get to Bush and others.

As long as those planets were Jupiter, Saturn, and Earth.  Otherwise, five.

So are grammer.
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

Actually that was what I consider to be an "Honor Execution". The Japanese are the only ones who do the ritual sepuuku as far as I know.
And suicide is viewed a bit differently nowadays in the Land of the Rising Prices.
Suicide is now more of a guilt trip than an honor thing, something the Japanese are experts at by the way. The message is "See what you guys made me do? See what I was forced to do? I had no alternative and you're at least partly to blame".

I don't know, I never could figure out how to play those Seppuku puzzles. :confused: And why would Spitzer waste time with them at a time like this?  I guess when he's in prison he'll have a lot of time for them.

The New York Post had a pic of Spitzer walking his dog in this morning's edition, much the same that Buddy the chocolate lab was the Clenis' only friend in the wake of Monica Lewinsky.

It's called a guillotine.

It came into wide use during the French Revolution in particular in the 2nd phase. (the Revolution of the Jacobins) DUer opihimoimoi is a would be Robespierre. ( http://www.historyguide.org/intellect/robespierre.html )
That phase of the Revolution, it's use of the guillotine being great and it's corruption being high, led directly to the establishment of Empire under Napoleon Bonaparte. I mention this only to note that even in the sarcastic heated agreement threads of the hive, they can't help but reveal their ignorance.
"When you see that trading is done, not by consent, but by compulsion - when you see that in order to produce, you need to obtain permission from men who produce nothing - when you see that money is flowing to those who deal, not in goods, but in favors - when you see that men get richer by graft and by pull than by work, and your laws don't protect you against them, but protect them against you - when you see corruption being rewarded and honesty becoming a self-sacrifice - you may know that your society is doomed."
