Explain role on board of Harkin Oil. Sale created a patent profit to hide losses. Hurt your credibility. Blah, blah, blah, SEC looked into it.

He's losing his temper now...over the Harkin questions.
I love how he talks to the reporters like they're idiots.
To: All
The press are a$$es, they will not let this die.....the DNC at work!
To: Registered
He's not hammering the press on Harken. He should take the gloves off and shut these bastards up.
On the other hand, he's got them in the palm of the hand. I wish he would crush them, tho.

Form 144 |
|
Also known as Rule 144, this is a form which must be filed with the SEC when an executive officer, director or affiliate of a company places an order to sell that company's stock.
|
|
There are five basic requirements to sell under 144: -The form must be filed properly. -Adequate current public information must be available. For example, required reports such as the 10K and 10Q forms must have been filed with the SEC. -Volume limitations have to be met. One limitation is the sale must not be greater than 1% of outstanding shares. -The transaction must be made by a stockbroker in accordance with certain procedures and rules. -If the securities are restricted they cannot be sold until one year after the date the affiliate paid the entire purchase price. |

Shouldn't they have been asking these Harkin questions BEFORE the election?
Shouldn't they be doing their own research instead of asking the same question again & again?

Oops, ad just came on, reminding me I've been listening to Sean Hannity on WMAL, not to C-SPAN Radio. C-SPAN Radio seems to have a hearing on.

Actually, if they want to help the poor, Bank officials should focus less on "inclusion" and more on freedombecause thats the real antidote to poverty. This is confirmed by the "Index of Economic Freedom," published annually by The Wall Street Journal and The Heritage Foundation. This guidebook ranks nations by how economically free they are. It consistently shows that people who live in countries with the fewest economic restraints are wealthier than those in economically repressed countries.
Take Haiti and the Dominican Republic, two developing countries with a common border. The 2001 Index shows that of the 155 countries graded, Haiti ranks 137th, while the Dominican Republic is 59th. So what? Well, the answer to that question is this: Thanks to a more market-oriented economy that features low tax rates, Dominicans earn nearly five times as much as Haitians: an average of $1,799, compared to Haitis $370.
Examples like these abound. So why the Banks misdiagnosis? Partly because of what it sees in the former Soviet Union. Weve poured billions into many of these countries, and theyre worse off today than under Soviet rule, Bank officials say. So capitalism obviously doesnt work.
But as the United States and other democracies have shown, capitalism isn't just the absence of socialist-style economics.
The reason should be clear: All the loans in the world are no substitute for economic reformfor freedom. Countries that want to be rich dont need charity; they need to unshackle their peoples economic potential. Perhaps then the Bank can adopt a new slogan: "Our Dream is a World Thats Really Rich."
A World Free of Wealth
Brian and the non-economists on the left should stick to reading teleprompters and kissing babies.
To: Registered
rabid dogs....yeah, that's the ticket.
But this is really smart of President Bush...letting the dogs chew on it, insisting they let him finish his answers. "All I can tell you, is that in the corporate world, accounting isn't always black and white, and that's why the SEC looks at these matters, and they looked, and the earnings needed to be restated, and they were, and that's that."
