Et Tu Baucus?!
Max Baucus = Marcus Brutus. Even sounds the same. Same initials. Same treachery in the Senate.

2. A Shame, Sir, The Tarpeian Rock Is Out Of Service Nowadays....
From Table IX Of Roman Law....

Law I.

No privileges, or statutes, shall be enacted in favor of private persons, to the injury of others contrary to the law common to all citizens, and which individuals, no matter of what rank, have a right to make use of.


Law III.

When a judge, or an arbiter appointed to hear a case, accepts money, or other gifts, for the purpose of influencing his decision, he shall suffer the penalty of death.

3. How cool is that?
Thanks. Nothing has changed it seems. I hope that karma comes back on Baucus the Bribed as another DU'er called him.

Roman law, huh?
