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.

When this story hit months ago, McAuliffe was asked about these figures on one, if not several, nationwide talking head shows. I remember him calling it "smart investing."

You read it here and at Newsmax.com.

Don't expect to read it anywhere else. This will die quicker than a Clinton Rape Scandal.

What I want to know is when did he get them, and what was he doing at the time?

He most likely received the shares as a pre-IPO finders fee for bringing the AFL-CIO to Global Crossing with 300M of investment capital. In other words he didn't pay one penny for the stock.

A guy that holds up a 7-11, goes to prison for years, these guys from Global Crossing should spend the rest of their lives in prison.

Enron is smoke and mirrors. The RATS are starting to run, but the big Rats and the socialists propagandists can't let it go. They are looking for a flower in a pile of bulls#$t, and it ain't working, it's blowing up in their faces. Liberals, when they are under attack by the truth, will lie, cheat, and steal to keep power. They are the most horrible of tyrants, and they must be defeated.

Keep it up FReepers, keep it up!

Oh, I already knew that. And while options are, of course, legal, I'm sure not too many around here think his palms were greased for any other reason than access to Clinton.

It was on FOX, Hannity was grilling Terry about producing his trading records on Global Crossing when he made that stupid remark. I don't think he made a television apperance for two months after that.

Democrat national chairman Terry McAuliffe is accused in the suit of "allegedly conspiring with Global Crossing directors and officers to inflate and artificially enhance Global Crossing’s income and market price of its stock.”

he turned a $100,000 investment into $18 million.

...and then days after Clinton left office, McAullife 'loaned' 1.5Million of that money back to Bubba.

Terry: "Oh, no judge, that wasn't be a kickback for insider information..."

...yea right, gimme a break!

Hey, all it takes is for one man to go down before they all do. Methinks McAuliffe's days are numbered (Arkancide)...at least he'll die rich.

This could get interesting...hopefully, JW's discovery process will bring up enough dirt on McLowlife to force Ashcroft's DoJ to INDICT the sleazy scumbag!!

Well, sultan?
I know of one Muddy Dude whose happier than a monkey in a banana tree just to be hearing this come up, eh?

Then, there's the potential *Added Bonus* JW will have started something that'll at-long-last overcome the legal *angle of repose* these slimey, filthy Leftist-Socialist protected band of thieves have managed to construct.
Which of course then might (hopefully) lead to fruition & some semblance of justice, finally.
All that coming in spite of the screaming *crash-dive* AH-OO-GA-sirens going off & massive damage control efforts at ol' 'Rat Central!!??
Be still, thy heart!!

Then, if that's not enough?
*Think* about the GOBS of EGG on the ugly mugs of our resisdent anti-JW self-appointed old bag Alphas running amok 'round here, too?
Jesus Christ yessssssss, bring-it-on!!!

...sweet!!
