Don't even think about not watching these

Question: What caused Bear Stearns, then Lehman Brothers to fail on Wall Street, at their appointed times, as the the mortgage meltdown "progressed?"

Clue: It wasn't someone who couldn't tell where the "M" and "B" keys are, on a keyboard.

Answer: Peruse these videos, produced by Judd Bagley.

Cease and desist. You are flaming and derailing, and frankly, libeling.

Go argue with a Marxofascist (and stop acting like a fascist).

[unspun]

Thanks for the bump, but do your flaming in another thread, if you have to do it.

Crying to teacher is weak and denotes an indefensible position.

[unspun]

No crying, but since you don’t feel the shame, it is the sensible discipline left. Thank you for bumping this very important thread again, though.

[Eaker]

You forgot to ping the Mods.

[unspun]

Thanks again for the bump, flamer.

[Eaker]

No problem.

BTW, peruse this article and videos at RenewAmerica.com, if you prefer. That is the site linked in the original posting. It’s just updated and further edited in the Investigating Obama blog.

Do you have info on my mother's health that I don't?

This video presents how Bear Stearns and Lehman Brothers were destroyed by massive naked short selling attacks.

This video presents how a blog pimp can take allegations made by the CEO (I think he was) of a failed institution (Bear Stearns) in order to cover his own ass (wasn't he playing bridge when all this went down?), present them as truth, and browbeat his viewers in believing them to be true (if you don't understand, watch again).

I'm sick of it--if we set the bar so low, then the Duke lacrosse squad is in prison.

Oh, and lest I forget: “My stock was selling for $70, someone bet it was worth $30, and it was actually worth $1—waah.” Shut up, already.

First, I'm not taking sides on the issue of the video - can't as the Wall Street voodoo is above my pay grade. But as a courtesy to the FReepdom, could you guys take the statements made in that video and break them down to expose their errors?

Too often I find there's a bit of truth wrapped around a mountain of BS.

Thanks in advance.

[1rudeboy]

At its most basic level, the CEO (I think that's what he was) of Bear Stearns is testifying before the Financial Crisis Inquiry Commission, and these are his allegations. There might be a kernel or two or truth in them, but you won't find them by watching a gawd dang cartoon.

And when the allegations dovetail with the Democrats' full court press in trying to shift the spotlight from them and divert it to some amorphous, and evil, SPECULATORS you need to take that kernel or two with a grain or two of salt.

Thanks, but I really try to avoid blogs.
