All above -- crimes before the SEC "watchdogs" before the securirty regulations.
Did the damn SEC and the damnable regulations stop one iota of loss in 2000? Millions of folks lost billions in total -- the damn regulators still collect their pensions and kept their sinecures. False watchdogs. Last week -- my money was returning 1000% in Vancouver. The free market. Or freer. At least.
But you approve of the same sort of things being done by brokers and traders and Sam W. and Martha S.! SO,WHY ARE YOU COMPLAINING?
Wasn't the same at all. Although Ira (was that his name?) is a fraud.
You don't want any regulations or regulators,but are having fits about what YOU see as crimes.You can't have it both ways!
And what you and the general public don't know,is that the SEC has cracked down on lots of people,through the years. You only hear about a wee bit of it all,when someone "famous" goes down.
Outside of the small financial/exchange community in Chicago, Tyson and the Clintons in Arkansas,NOBODY in the general populace knew about the Red Bone.And even when his name popped up in connection with Hillary,it was I,and I alone,who was explaining what he had done and when.
But according to YOU,what he did should be perfectly okay.And you still haven't talked about that case,but just keep throwing up irrelevant straw men.
Is it that as long as YOU make money on an investment,you don't give a damn and/or you think that you could make more money by now ILLEGAL methods?
ANSWER MY QUESTIONS!
Wow.
Just wow.
I am continually amazed at the lengths certain Freepers will go to, to prove points.
What started out as a very innocent joke on my part, has invoked some very serious feelings on yours.
You are now solicited the attention of the moderators on this site.
May I suggest, perhaps, that you have taken this far beyond what I had meant?
Let me help you understand.
Free Republic, for me, is a past time. Something fun of which to partake, when I have the time.
To subscribe to the level that you have, one would think that there are serious voids taking place.
Again, I repeat- I beseech- with a smile/smirk on my face.... drop it!
MEOW
Well,since you call yourself catty,what can I say? Care to expose your other failings? LOL
You have a comprehension problem, I'm not calling myself catty.
Reference your previous posts to me- I believe the Moderators were mentioned- am I incorrect?
Why are you attacking me?
Honestly- what is wrong with you?
What is wrong with you?
Lame. THe best you could come up with is newbie!
Old FReepers- sigh. Not what they wish they could be. If only sign-on date had the equivalent power as viagra.
PS- putting a smiley face or a winkie face at the end of your posts doesn't make you any more likable.
I don't care if you have been a member of this board since Jesus was a twinkle in the eye of the Lord, I still think you're full of it. ;)
Wake up... she dd nothing at all wrong, not even insider trading. She just followed her broker's assistant's advice and was a bit sloppy with the follow up. WHO CARES ABOUT A BIT OF FIBBING TO THE FIBBIES?
Martha rocks.
With her newfound notoriety and with Camp Cupcake behind her, she is poised to roll. I would bet that the next decade will see Martha Stewart go on from strength to strength.
God bless you Martha. May you mount up with wings as eagles, run and not be weary, walk and not faint... A LITTLE BLESSING STRAIGHT FROM ISAIAH TO YOU!
Ha,
it's been fun- glad I could teach you something.
Best wishes!
Obviously,you're a big fan of hers and for you,she can do no wrong.That's what the Dems' attitude was about Clinton.
She is poised to always be remembered as a convicted felon and unless there are enough of her faithful left,she'll never do what you imagine for her and even then,it's rather doubtful.
But Martha was not convicted or even accused of "insider trading".
She was convicted of simply lying to Federal investigators. Period. That's it.
I completely agree with you.
It's a shame that you are incapable of understanding what your posts said about you.
Honestly, please help me understand.
What did my posts say about me?
I would sincerely like to know.
And it wasn't "simple lying" at all;she was convicted of lying,perjury,tampering with evidence and conspiracy.
ROTFLOL...no you don't. You just want attention and/or a flame war,which I am not going to engage in.
