I’m not “lying” about the economy, no matter how much you desperately wish I am, for fear that you’d actually have to get off your ass and prove it.

You’re the one who props up government management....like in “free” “a/k/a governmental managed” trade.

This thread is about Bear Stearns, and the government bail out.

When are you going to make a thread about derivatives, which is NOT what this thread is about?

Want a laugh? Watch Cramer last week screaming “Don’t Sell Bear Stearns! Bear Stearns is a great stock!”

Michelle Malkin has the utube link on the left side, scroll down a little until you see Cramer.

That is so true. I want less government management and lower taxes, and you run crying to it because someone might be making more money than you (thus the 30 pieces BS). Tell me, how much should taxes be raised on the bourgeoise?

Cite the post where you claim you can infer, much less outright, make that claim? You cannot. Yet another lie from you....not surprised.

When you have nothing but propaganda to sell....it makes it difficult for you to post the truth.

Gladly (although I don't know why I should, you never do).

"But you already have your 30 pieces of silver."

What are you trying to imply, if not someone is making more money than you? That Toddsterpatriot is not becoming wealthy, and that you have a better idea how he should become wealthy. Like a reverse "class warfare" thing?

This thread is about Bear Stearns, and the government bail out.

I'm trying to help Positive and his sour stomach.

When are you going to make a thread about derivatives

Not now.....not ever.....never!

which is NOT what this thread is about?

Complain to the guy who brought up derivatives first.

How do you interpret the "30 pieces of silver" ad hominem? I'm curious.

Judas comes to mind, which has nothing to do with anything "making more money" than ANYBODY. But, you already knew that. Paid shills are familiar with Judas, I think.

Toad, you make it your uttermost attempt to siderail discussions onto derivatives if the word is ever on any post.

Please make a thread devoted to derivatives so that you stop making entire threads about it. Thanks.

I guess I'm Judas and I guess I'm selling somebody out.

I'm in favor of smaller government, so maybe I'm selling out the big government guys like Nic and his union buddies.

Yes, I'll correct people who make misstatements about derivatives. On any thread where I see them. Glad I could help.
