Sentenced to a 4 instead of a 5 star hotel. His family is devastated by the harsh sentence.

GASP! How could this be true of the main contributor to The Brady Campaign to Disarm the Law-Abiding?

... George Soros guilty of insider trading and fined him $2.2 million ...

That'll help pay for a few "free" heroin needles.

A French court has found U.S. billionaire George Soros guilty of insider trading and fined him $2.2 million on charges that date back nearly 15 years.

He's probably got that much buried in his sofa cushions.

[Rightone]

Same as a guy with a net worth of $690,000 being fined $220. Whoopee, what a punishment.

Breaking the law to make money for you, Soros, and financially crippling socialism for everyone else, right?

[Grut]

Careful! The next bag lady you see may be George Soros in drag.

You'll have a ball with this one. Knock yourself out. :-)

One of the scariest sites on the net...Soros.org's "Your children belong to themselves" (otherwise known as useful tools of leftist activists): http://www.soros.org/youth/whatsnew.htm

[L.N. Smithee]

The 72-year-old Soros is the president of Soros Fund Management, the world's largest hedge fund. He denied all the charges and was not in court Friday when the verdict was announced.

What a surprise. I guess he and Marc Rich are hanging out.

GOOD RIDDANCE JACKASS!!!!!!

[Doctor Raoul]

He CAN'T be an inside trader, he supports so many liberal causes.......

But then again, so does Terry McAuliffe.

[John_11_25]

It should be one rule for all. Not if you are a Billionaire we treat you more lenient.

Send his $ss to Jail.

Then the other creeps that make the man in the streets life terrible through out the world, when they get up to their tricks, while adding millions to their own bank accounts.

What kills me is, you know this happens all the time.

Talk about your unprovable crimes, insider trading is the worst of the worst.

Imagine two guy's on a golf course:

Bob: "Hey, ya know I don't think we're gonna get that contract.."

Jim: "Oh really?"

Bob: "Yeah, looks that way.."

Jim: "Guess I should sell my shares..."

Bob: "Probably"

Jim: "You know, I think the FDA is going to tank our new drug.."

Bob: "Really?"

Jim: "Looks that way.."

Bob: "Guess I should sell my shares."

Jim: "Probably.."

(Pause)

Bob: "You buyng lunch?"

Jim: "Sure.."

I'm really surprised he didn't use the POT MAKES YOU STUPID defense.

In a tremendous coincidence earlier this week, I myself was also convicted of insider trading, along with a side of treason and three counts of first-degree murder. Witnesses to the proceedings sat in stunned silence, as I was fined a devastating 150 pesos.

Now *that's* justice! </sarcasm>
