McAuliffe, while acknowledging he did quite well with his investment in Global Crossing, has denied reports in NewsMax and elsewhere that he turned a $100,000 investment into $18 million.

Wow, must have the same financial adviser as Hillary. Ya know, being the party of the people, they sure make some big bucks don't they? Seems like they would want to spread it around a little.

[i]"If Li Ka-Shing gains control over Global Crossing, that would make the Chinese government the phone company for the Pentagon and other sensitive agencies,” Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton told NewsMax.com.[/i]

But remember folks, JW is really a bunch of whackos (according to self-styled experts on FR).

I'd love to see McAuliffe spending his time in depositions and a courtroom rather than on television news.

Let's see McAuliffe explain again how the RAT party is for the little guy, and those evil rich Repubs only help their rich pals.

Unlike Enron, we won't have to read all of the pious reporting on the front page of the Washington Post or the New York Times. We won't have listen to Chucky Shumer and his ilk whine about it at press conferences.

Terry McAulife won't be telling us what to expect at 'the end of the day'. Henry the nostrils Waxman won't be screaming for investigations. And Maxipad Waters won't be equating Global Crossing to slavery or whatever.

After this broke, several on here spoke of calculations, and the ones I did suggested that to have received 18 mill from the proceeds of a stock sale on the date the share price was the highest, McAullife would have had to have bought the shares at about $.36. Needless to say, the shares never traded for that low of price, so he obviously got some sort of options. What I want to know is when did he get them, and what was he doing at the time?

Does Klayman know about Peregrine Systems, PRGN, latest accounting crooks to get caught in $100 million fraud scandal this past week? They had 8 new lawsuits filed against them today.

I'm sure Bubba has him doing that during every "meeting."
