GOP-leaning Fidelity tilts Democratic

Boston Herald ^ | August 8, 2006 | Brett Arends

[ConservativeStatement]

Something unusual is going on at Fidelity this election year.

Employees at the conservative firm are on track to double their donations to the Democratic Party.

And they’re not alone in the investment world.

Overall, the Democrats are likely to bag their biggest share of Wall Street bucks this election since they held power back in 1994.

The figures are tracked by the nonpartisan think-tank The Center for Responsive Politics.

The facts?

For the 2002 mid-term elections, Fidelity staff, their families and the company’s Political Action Committee donated $159,262 in total to Democrats at the federal level.

So far, in the 2005-2006 election cycle, the figure has already topped $251,085.

That’s a 58 percent increase.

[ConservativeStatement]

From the same writer who yesterday wrote that some Dems think Hillary Clinton is the "devil incarnate" among other juicy descriptions.

[EagleUSA]

The liberal MSM is desperate and will do (PRINT) anything to sell a newspaper.

[Kitten Festival]

It's one of those little indicators I've been watching for a long time. It's a bad sign.

[RexBeach]

The last time I heard people talking this way was 1992. a lot of big players on Wall Street were giving the dough to Clinton - and not Bush 41.

I agree. If this report is accurate, it does not bode well for the fall elections.

[MineralMan]

"The liberal MSM is desperate and will do (PRINT) anything to sell a newspaper."

Actually, it's rather an interesting bit of information. A bit unsettling, as well.

It's easy to just dismiss all of this stuff in the media, rather than look at it and ask what it might mean. It's easy to just say, "Oh, that's meaningless."

I don't see this increased support for Dems by Wall Street types as anything positive this year. It seems, instead, to be a symptom of something.

I'm afraid the writer is on target with Fidelity.

Besides contributing to the rats there is another way mutual fund companies help our political enemies. They buy the stock of losers like the NY Slimes, NYT to help keep these rat organizations afloat. Fidelity has some funds that invest in NYT and so do some other funds.

How many Freepers, who hate the NY Slimes, are supporting the NY Slimes with their mutual funds. Without mutual funds owning the NY Slimes non voting stock, the NYT would be in real trouble.

How do I find out if my mutual funds own NYT Stock, and what can I do if they do?

Here is something, we can all do today to start eliminating the NY Slimes as a threat to our nation's security. We can do it at our computers and do it in less than 1 hour. Besides sending a severe warning to the NY Slimes and the mutual fund companies, who buy NY Slimes stock, we will stop the fund company wasting our precious investment capital on NY Slimes stock.

If a few thousand freepers did this simple action this week and a few thousand new freepers, friends and relatives each following week, we will have a terminal impact on the NY Slimes acts of sedition. Please send this how to your blogs, friends, relatives and email lists. This action will serve as a cannon shot across the bows fo the other Dinosaur Liberal Fish Wraps re sedition will not be tolerated any more, and any mutual fund daring to buy their stock to support treason and sedition by the NY Slimes.

TODAY, SELL/TRADE MUTUAL FUNDS OWNING NYT!!!:

 

Want to smash the NY Slimes?
Check your mutual funds to see if they own NYT, the NY Slimes Stock

 

 

How many of us own mutual funds which own NY Slimes stock and even worse have increased their NYT holdings this year.

NYT investment by a mutual fund company is a terrible investment re the dollar loss in Stock value the last 2 years. Those investments are an attempt to keep the NY Slimes afloat with our mutual fund $'s.

Now it is very evident that the NY Slimes is an agent and abettor of the al Qaeda Serial Killers. The Slimes is endangering the lives of our families, friends, innocent Americans and every warrior of ours.

Go to this link to see if your mutual fund owns NYT.

If thousands of Freepers, whose mutual funds own shares of NY Slimes did the following:

1. Sell those mutual funds or trade them for funds not owning NYT.
   
   
2. Send a letter to the fund managers and the CEO's of the mutual fund company telling them why you sold/transferred their mutual fund owning NY Slimes stock. Then demand to know why they are wasting your precious $'s on a treasonous/seditious company which is a terrible investment.
   
   
3. Contact the SEC to investigate why this mutual fund and mutual fund company invested your $'s in one of the worse investments of the past 2 years.

[Paradox]

Indeed, follow the buck.. one of the few real indicators that mean something..

[napscoordinator]

I wonder how FREEPERS were talking before the 1992 and 1996 elections. I wonder if they still thought it impossible for Clinton to win. Was it a knock over the head for some FREEPERS or were they expecting it. I don't know as I was oblivious to politics then. I was enjoying my youth too much. lol.

[longtermmemmory]

Hitlary tours wall street on a regular basis.

she goes where the money is.

[RexBeach]

Bubba did a great job charming people in 1992. Bush 41 acted as though her didn't care if he won or lost, and Ross Perot got 19% of the popular vote, which killed any chance of Bush getting re-elected. Mr. Perot also hated Bush 41's guts.

In 1996, Dole ran 'cause it was his turn. His campaign was DOA; but times were good economically, so Bubba got in again.

I am worried that a lot of Republicans will stay home for the mid-term elections this year.

Imagine the House run by Mrs. Pelosi. OMG.

-Rex

[FlipWilson]

Honestly, in 1992 I thought Bush Sr. was toast due to Ross Perot's run. Without Perot, Bush Sr. probably has a second term. As for the 1996 election, I never thought Dole had a chance.

[Unam Sanctam]

Yet more gloom for the future of the Bay State. I dread to see what we'll get post-Mitt...

[The Old Hoosier]

My funds are all NYT-free, thank goodness!

"My funds are all NYT-free, thank goodness!"


Good! So are mine, now.

Same Fidelity?

Many of the IAC's initiatives are funded by contributions from The People's Rights Fund, a 501c3 tax-exempt, non-profit organization. A google.com search on "Peoples Rights Fund" and Flounders (for Sara Flounders, who is a co-director at the IAC) shows that the contributions have been both frequent and varied in their purpose. Many of the contributions were directly to the IAC. Others were made to other organizations that tie back to the IAC and/or [Ramsey] Clark.
Where does the People's Rights Fund get their money? Their website makes no mention. However, at least part of their funding comes from Fidelity Investment's Charitable Gift Fund. One can only wonder how well Fidelity has screened their recipients, if the money from this fund is being funneled to Marxist advocacy groups. One can only wonder who at Fidelity realizes that their fund was used as a conduit to funnel funds for the planning and execution of the massive demonstrations-turned-riots of November 1999 in Seattle, or the similar demonstrations in Washington, DC, of April 16, 2000 that were limited in their destructiveness by police raids the night before. These raids found riot gear, gas masks, staging locations, and involved the arrest of senior IAC members. One can only wonder how Fidelity feels about their fund being used as a conduit to funnel funds for the planning and execution of the coming September 29th demonstration against the war on terror. One can only wonder how well Fidelity would react to this information becoming widespread public knowledge.
