The Ayn Rand-Worshipping Sears CEO That Blew Up His Multibillion Dollar Empire | Alternet

The Ayn Rand-Worshipping Sears CEO That Blew Up His Multi-billion Dollar Empire | Alternet

Couldn't happen to a nicer guy. Back in the day, my family and I considered our Sears our first choice for buying just about anything besides groceries. Our car repairs and new tires were bought at Sears. First time I had to buy my own auto insurance, I bought it from the Allstate agent at Sears. First desktop computer, a Compaq, bought at Sears. First Sony video camera, bought at Sears. Did a fair amount of Christmas shopping at Sears. Got family portraits done at the Sears photography studio. Haven't been inside a Sears in at least 3 years. Doesn't sound like this wing-nut did anything to convince me to start spending my money there again anytime soon.

What the Tea-Baggers Demanded vs. What They Got


Arrest This Man!



Tea Party Republicans could be charged with sedition under US law for holding America hostage.

According to the US Code (18 U.S.C. § 2384 ), seditious conspiracy is a crime under United States law. The law states in part that,
“If two or more persons in any State or Territory, or in any place subject to the jurisdiction of the United States, conspire to… prevent, hinder, or delay the execution of any law of the United States… they shall each be fined or imprisoned not more than 20 years, or both.”
