Oh...."just that," which is a quote from "just this"?:
Treasury Agrees to Absorb any Losses to the Fed from Bear StearnsSo............according to your deluded mind....excerpts and quotations from articles and media sources, somehow transfer ownership, according to YOU, and become MY OWN CLAIMS and MY OWN WORDS, even when the words and claims quoted have been sourced, cited, linked to, and formatted to show it's a quote?
Video from CNBC (hat tip idoc)
CNBC's Steve Liesman reports on a letter from Treasury Secretary Paulson to New York Fed President Tim Geithner (PDF). In the letter, Treasury agrees that the Fed can bill Treasury for any losses from the Bear Stearns deal.
Is that how things work in your world? Have you ever heard of the word "plagiarism"? Are you aware of the MULTIPLE restrictions on FR against posters being able to QUOTE from media sources on FR? Do you suppose they know something about ownership of words that you don't?
FOFLMAO!
Ummmmmm.....I read your PDF. It didn't say, "Treasury agrees that the Fed can bill Treasury for any losses from the Bear Stearns deal"
Try again? Maybe give us the exact words that prove your claim?
You have the letter, show us the words. LOL!
So do you agree with the claim or not?
This one, "In the letter, Treasury agrees that the Fed can bill Treasury for any losses from the Bear Stearns deal."
Correct or not?
And the material from an outside source looks like this.
And your posts are so much doomer diarrhea that I go cross-eyed every time I see one of you data dumps.
Sorry I confused your source's claim for yours.
Now that that's out of the way, do you agree with it or not?
I get it, you posted something you disagree with. Clever. LOL!
The claim that wasn't yours. The claim that you didn't plagiarize.

He is packing it in and packing it up
And sneaking away and buggering up
And chickening out and pissing off home,
Yes, bravely he is throwing in the sponge.
well stated.
Try this, so you won't look so full of flummery, repeat after me: "I can't recall, I can't recall". Hey, it worked for the Clintons.
Where do you get your links? Foolmeonce.con?
Most people post a quotation from a fellow FReeper in italics.
Some *splat* or **double splat** with asterisks, but mostly it's italics
Now as an example in post #154 you quoted me, in italics like so: Null and void: "Translation: the tax payers will get stuck with the bill."
But then, typically, you attributed what I said to nicmarlo, and demanded that she defend my words that you put in her mouth.
I also note that although you quoted me by screen name, you somehow neglected to ping me. I'm certain that this is an oversight on your part, I wouldn't want to think that you were deliberately violating the rules of netiquette.
