Something sure stinks in stinksville.
The trustee handling the unwinding of fallen broker dealer MF Global has uncovered some “suspicious” trades made by the company in the last days leading up to its Halloween collapse, a bankruptcy judge was told yesterday.
The trades could strike at the heart of the mystery surrounding $1.2 billion in missing customer funds — and help the army of investigators searching for the cash since the Oct. 31 Chapter 11 filing.

You want to find the missing cash? Look in the coffers of various Democrat front organizations, ranging from OWS to unions to a broad range of Democrat re-election campaigns.
Probably a lot of this cash right now is being distributed in Wisconsin and concentrated on the recall election being mounted against Scott Walker. Hey, these people need money and support, what better way than to loot a financial services organization. Even better than a savings and loan association, and detection may be deferred quite a bit longer.
Pretty sad really MF Global’s history goes back to the mid 1700s and remained a strong business up until one of Obama’s buddies took the helm, then crash and burn. Kind of like this country.
As it stands right now, our bi-factional ruling party is doing a good job setting up the American people with various scams.
Enron was enabled by GOP led “energy reform”.
MF Global was enables by Democrat led “financial reform”.
As for there not being a dime’s worth of difference between the factions, right now the Democrats are $600 Billion ahead, not counting Fannie and Freddie which have been enabled by both factions.
(Enron=$600 Billion, MF=$1.2 Trillion and rising)
Of course, Ron Paul is the only dude talking about stopping this crap, but people who think conservatism includes invading other countries to prove our military is some sort of humanitarian organization bringing “democracy” to the world refuse to even consider him.
Whatever serial adulterer or Fabian socialist maverick comes along will do just fine.....
Grab Soros by the scruff of his neck, string him up by his heels and shake him until he coughs up the money!
Actually, a big part of what put the taxpayer on the hook for Enron was the Clinton administration's putting pressure on India to contract with Enron the building of natural gas power plants. Interestingly enough, India has endless coal, but little or no natural gas. So India was supposed to buy the natural gas from... You guessed it, Enron! When India couldn't afford the payments, they defaulted, and that was a big part of downfall of Enron.
Some believe this was a big part of "the whacking" of Ron Brown.

It would be too much to ask for any prosecution, let alone a special prosecutor. The administration is being fiercely protected by the media.
Enron was enabled under Clinton, they came down under Bush when the reforms ended their scheming trading practices.
And Fraud Paul? LOL. The old career politician fart would sit in a corner and talk, talk, talk but do actually nothing, just like he is with the Fed.
Once he got his role as Chairman of the Monetary Policy Committee and failed to do anything he claimed he wanted to do regarding the Fed, he revealed himself to have no teeth, just words. No subpoenas, no investigation, etc. All under his legal jurisdiction and he did jack and squat.
The fake-constitutionalist palio fraudie needs to go away for a very long retirement, as soon as possible.
Thanks..
Too many fall for the leftists talking points that Enron belonged to Bush. It actually fell under Bush but the crimes were under Clinton. The Clinton Administration enabled their crimes and schemes. Blaming Bush is like blaming the cop who stops a robbery because he was there when it ended.
Just boosting the coffers so the elite don't have to suffer with the rest of us when a loaf of bread sells for $1500.00...
Didn’t you get the memo?
Ron Paul is a wild eyed, crazy old kook!
Don’t you know that you must choose one of the two establishment candidates or you are throwing your vote away?
Hey man, you are straying from the party line here. This site has become overloaded with wingnut dingbat nutjobs. It does not bode well for thee.
I think MF Global is $1.2 Billion, not Trillion.
Congress needs to investigate this too.
Of course I am still waiting for a full audit of where the “stimulus” funds went.
In California, energy deregulation was lead by the Democrat Party, and opposed by many Republicans. Enron made bundles by shipping energy out of state (not in actuality, but according to accounting methods) then "shipping" the same energy back.
The Democrats promised lower rates, but the exact opposite happened.
Right to the end, even some months after details of how the market had been rigged, a Democrat Governor, Grey Davis, who was later ousted in a recall election, was working furiously to sign the State up for high-priced electricity into the future.
That's Democrats for you...dumb as rocks, on the stuff that matters the most!
So sorry about the 3X order of magnitude slip there.
Gotta quit the semi-log paper stuff! LOL
Commies and crooks, or both. The most corrupt administration in American history.
Jail to the Chief!
Why are you posting a misleading article. The moderator should isist that you edit it. There is nothing, absolutely nothing in the article stating that Corzine, Obama or Soros made a sales or buys in the hours and days before the company’s colapse. Why did you say this on the headline?
Putting Ron Paul in charge of the Treasury for a while would be fine with many.
