It was very interesting for me to read that blog. Thanks for it. I like such topics and anything that is connected to them. I would like to read a bit more soon. By the way, rather nice design you have at this site, but how about changing it from time to time?

Does that not make you a bastard? Kinda sorta? And if you were predisposed towards being a malefactor wouldn't that make you an evil bastard?

The SEC is like kids to Republicans - it can be seen but not heard from.

We know the unspoken truth was that the SEC under Bush was not to bother investigating anyone - hence Bernie Madoff and Sir Alan.

The Obama Admin five times as transparent as the Bush Admin, but that doesn't bother the partisan bickerers. Haters will always be hating. Too bad they seem to hate the US so much.

Mr Obama promised to "change" business as usual in Washington and he has delivered. It has modeled "Chicago Style Politics" with ONE-sided/Arm-twisting/Back Door PORK Dealing/threatening rhetoric to shove through ONE CRAPPY BILL after another to meet the Obama/Pelosi/Reid "Agenda" timetable to destroy America. The American people ARE paying attention.

Most of US want the Republicans to continue saying NO! to this "Agenda" despite the Democratic view.

They still don't understand...YET!

Just a reminder for November...The last time the Democrats held the Presidency-The Senate AND the Congress was CARTER.

It took over a DECADE to recover from THAT!

Let's not make the same mistake this time...please!

Sad part...it may be too late for the US to recover this time.

Too much damage has already been done.

Where were you when Enron was imploding? Where were you regarding Halliburton and Blackwater in the two wars brought to us by not only phony intel, but impotent men (Bush/Cheney, Rumsfeld) all trying to be big men, or what exactly was the SEC doing while Bush was in office? Oh, I can answer that, looking at and downloading porn.

To the person that quoted NY Post. What a laugh! Talk about a rag. If that is where you are getting your info (I would assume from FOX also), you are delusional. Try getting your information from a more credible source and I don't mean the Heritage Foundation or the AEI.

Give it a rest already!

by discussing what's in the reform bill than by cooking up rumors for a conspiracy that doesn't exist.

Anyone else notice how much these goons doing the whisper campaigns against the president sound like cartoon villains? "of courssssssse there isssss more than meetssss the eye. hisssssss". I can just picture them in some dark alley doorway, slinking about in black trenchcoats, whispering and beckoning. One wonders how much $$$$$$$ goes into these innuendo campaigns against the president. They direct us to Murdoch's propaganda machines. Are they hired by Murdoch? The RNC? Goldman?

Why not look at fact instead? If you want real connections to Goldman instead of snake oil, look at Hank Paulson, former Goldman CEO and head of the Treasury under Bush. Read for yourself Paulson's TARP proposal. The one he begged Pelosi on bended knee to pass without question. It's short. See in black and white where Paulson asks for complete freedom to distribute $700 billion however he wishes. Read for yourself how he included clauses prohibiting any court of law from ever examining how he distributed that discretionary money. Congress was to be prohibited from ever examining what he did with it. Why? And why was it to be a gift, not a loan? Under Obama, we had loans. Under Bush, we had handouts to Wall Street. Makes one wonder: Who are these whisperers who want so desperately to oust Obama and return to the status quo?

"The supply is endless, the wealth from all its treasures!" (Bible, Nahum 2:9)

"4 The chariots storm through the streets, rushing back and forth through the squares. They look like flaming torches; they dart about like lightning." (Bible, Nahum 2:4)

There was a General in the U.S. Military who became Governor of New Mexico from 1878-1881. He wrote the book Ben Hur. It was the best selling novel until 1936. It was made into a movie in 1959.

In the Movie Ben Hur. Ben Hur grew up with Messala. Messala grew up and became a Roman Centurion. Ben Hur grew up to be a Prince of Juda. Then they Clashed. They put each other in various prisons and finally had a chariot race. Both Got Hurt. Then when they watched the crucifixion of Jesus Christ and Heard him say Father Forgive them for they know not what they do. They both became Christian and dropped there swards, and stopped fighting.

There was a man named Saul of Tarsus who who did much worse than what Messalla did to Ben Hur and much worse than what Ben Hur did to Messala to the Christians. But Jesus made him a Christian. And Jesus made him The Apostle Paul who wrote most of the New Testament Gospel.

"28There is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus. 29If you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise." (Bible, New Testament, Galatians 3:28-29)
