That's a f*cking mean mug. My hat goes off to those jurors for the guilty verdict. I'd be afraid he would leap over the jury box and break my neck with his bare hands.

Nah, he's a telco weenie. He'll likely slam your long distance carrier and charge you exorbitant monthly connect prices to pay for his legal bills.

pppppppppppooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooop

Time to go to a federal pound me in the ass prison.

No Camp Cupcake for you, boyo. Better stock up on the K-Y.

Good, now he can become richer with his new book deal...

Hang 'em high!

I think he should get the death penalty. Screw you CEOs for killing our economy and screwing the consumer out of billions...

Haha, I can just see him running a monopoly on contraband in there.

So how long does he get in the comparative luxury of a low status Club Fed facility?

Your average African American who robs a 7/11 for $500 would go down for 10.

I doubt Ebbers will see anything like the 85 years he's been slated for stealing $11 billion.

He should be in for life.

I don't understand. He's rich, he can't be guilty. Having lots of money means God likes you more than everyone else. Why would God like someone who commits crimes?

Pardon me?

/sorry kenny-boy is ahead of ya.
//Martha got six. What will ebers get?

Guess the "Ronald Reagan Defense" didn't work for him on the stand.

/hope he gets raped in prison

Dunno, but I bet he gets time off for rich behaviour...

musta been a Democrat.

Says Ebbers: "I knew nothing"

This jag even steals from that lovable oaf Sgt Schultz.

Let me know when they've gone down the chain of command and are going after my old bosses at WorldCom for ripping their employees of. It's one big culture of corporate shennanigans.

thanks in part to this guy
1) lost my job as we got screwed by worldcom
2) lost hot ivy leauge girlfriend
3) spent savings
4) drank beer on my couch for a few months getting fat
5) ended up selling used cars for a year

i hope his cellmate has a 16" wang and refuses to use lube.

A**HOLE.

Good. Enjoy prison biatch.

ha ha

You know what this mean don't you?.....

Next month Bush will award Bernie Ebbers a Congressional Medal of Freedom, and nominate him to head up the Social Security Administration!

/Unless, Kennyboy Lay is available.

Here's hoping he goes to a federal pound-you-in-the-ass prison.

White collar crime is an American value, so this guy is a national treasure. Why do we even try to pretend we care about it? Just to try and shut up a few whiny liberals? Pfft! We are what we are.

the vast majority of his donations were to republicans. but he did swing both ways, but most to the gop. that means he'll get a pardon in january 2009.

linky

Here's hoping his 'ass like a wizard's sleeve' is in the post.

As a die hard Republican, even I need to ask: "How the heck does this guy go to trial before Lay (Enron?" Didn't Enron pop before WorldCom?

My prediction: The lay trial gets started one day after the prez leaves office.

Wake me when it's this guy....

That poor, poor, billionaire....
I'll have to find out his prison address and send him a free bottle of Astroglide.

Anyone think that he will have to go all the way to the end of bush's term before he gets pardoned? Like hb0mb said, not to bad for all the dough he raked in.

Curses! He was one of our best agents.

I admit that was a better headline than mine. for the same thing

Looking back at his photo, he looks like the cowboy that starts the barfight.

/observational comedy is back

I blame the great Kapitalist George W. Bush for giving Ebbers and his ilk secret permission to defraud the populace.

What's that you say? Happened during the 'champion of the working class' Clinton Administration? Enron was then, too?

Nevermind.

put him in the fed clink right now
watch him get killed in there
watch the confessions roll in

I'm sure the prison will only have a PAR 3 golf course too! Take that Mr. Ebbers!

Boot20: I think he should get the death penalty. Screw you CEOs for killing our economy and screwing the consumer out of billions...

Anyone who thinks the recession was mainly the work of a few corporations' executives, as opposed to the internet bubble, some big demand shocks (like 9/11), and some smaller supply shocks (like rising oil prices) is ignorant. Death penalty?

And it was the shareholders, not consumers, who got screwed by Ebber's dealings.

hb0mb:

3 years in jail before your Presidental pardon is not that bad when you make majillions of dollars from it.

forget about a pardon. bernie ebbers isn't marc rich and bill clinton is no longer president.

Oh, I don't know, he looks like Peter Ustinov as the loveable owner of the Gladiator School in Spartacus.

hb0mb,

What's great about posts like yours is that it clearly illustrates how partisan you are. No matter what sentance he was given you would find a way to bash Bush. Rather than say, "hey, I was proved wrong, these scumbag CEO's who seem to have the current administration in their back pockets are actullay going to be held accountable is a nice change of pace" you just spout your partisan rhetoric.

On a personal note, while it's nice to see Bernie get his due, I don't think anyone will be claiming victory until the others fall with him. But this one is as good as anyplace to start.

Of course this guy won't go to pound-you-in-the-ass prison, he is rich. He will serve out his sentence in camp cupcake, because we segregate our rich white prisoners from the general population. Our deep tradition and value of the American system of justice means we have to keep all those rich pale-skinned prisoners away from all of those beastial dark-skinned ones, it is only fair.

Please God, PLEASE let someone shank him in the yard.

Clinton is still president? Coulda fooled me.....idiot Republicans.

He'll be wearing an ankkle bracelet on his farm in five months

And it was the shareholders, not consumers, who got screwed by Ebber's dealings.

Shareholders don't consume? Interesting.

Don't forget these assholes. And the dozen more just like them.

It puts the lotion on its skin...
