Not that it’s relevant, but I wonder how many Obama supporters were caught up in this? I suspect quite a few based on the description of the investors.
I'm going to guess that a large majority of the people who lost money were Obama contributors, which is a bit of a silver lining. This may mean significantly reduced Democrat contributions.
Looks like a bailout for the rich Wall Street Libs.
“New Jersey Sen. Frank Lautenberg also confirmed he had invested money from his charitable organization “
What the hell is this? Doesn’t that just makes his charity an investment company and not a charity? His attempt to avoid paying higher taxes?
I think tha tis very relevent and I was thinking the same thing.The Dem’s are the big losers.

It’s more relevant than you might suspect. Freeper Liz has good ideas on this thread - “$50 billion at stake after Wall St broker Bernard Madoff is arrested over ‘world’s biggest swindle’” - http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/2148101/posts , including potential for tax evasion and the potential campaign finance fraud.
