The only thing more intellectually bankrupt would be the idea that it is somehow offset by Fox news, that two prejudiced news sources somehow balance each other and provide Truth. ]]> http://seekingalpha.com/article/87689-could-google-buy-the-new-york-times?source=feed#comment-217577 217577 Tue, 29 Jul 2008 13:37:28 -0400 http://seekingalpha.com/article/87689-could-google-buy-the-new-york-times?source=feed#comment-217547 217547 Tue, 29 Jul 2008 13:04:34 -0400 http://seekingalpha.com/article/87242-the-dodd-days-of-august?source=feed#comment-216188 216188 Mon, 28 Jul 2008 01:34:51 -0400 Yes they all need to be ridden out of DC on a trail.]]> http://seekingalpha.com/article/87242-the-dodd-days-of-august?source=feed#comment-216141 216141 Sun, 27 Jul 2008 23:27:10 -0400
We hear over and over again about planned or at least suggested attacks on Iran's nuclear program. Is Congress trying to reduce 'speculation' now to cause another astronomical rise in price in the event of a major world event such as an attack on Iran? If traders are not allowed, or have reduce ability to hedge against such events, guess what will happen when they actually do happen? I'd guess the increase in prices of oil would far more than outweigh any 'protection' for the consumer now.]]> http://seekingalpha.com/article/87242-the-dodd-days-of-august?source=feed#comment-216111 216111 Sun, 27 Jul 2008 22:53:06 -0400 http://seekingalpha.com/article/87242-the-dodd-days-of-august?source=feed#comment-216052 216052 Sun, 27 Jul 2008 20:26:24 -0400 http://seekingalpha.com/article/87242-the-dodd-days-of-august?source=feed#comment-215924 215924 Sun, 27 Jul 2008 17:13:21 -0400 management made lots of $$$)...when they lose billions they get the taxpayers to bail them out...

Getting a bit crowded under that Bus where everyone's being thrown--diversification is good!--right??

If we all went down to the track for a justified toss, we'd derail the train. Which would be nothing new for a Govt. operated enterprise like Amtrak would it?--Is there no hope??. ]]> http://seekingalpha.com/article/87242-the-dodd-days-of-august?source=feed#comment-215731 215731 Sun, 27 Jul 2008 13:13:17 -0400 http://seekingalpha.com/article/87242-the-dodd-days-of-august?source=feed#comment-215709 215709 Sun, 27 Jul 2008 12:39:00 -0400
He represents the barons from Greenwich, Stamford and New Caanan who own hedge funds, run banks and are the captains of industry. Its one thing to make policy for the nation. Its another thing to be hissed at whilst moving from train car to train car trying to find a seat. Rather than take a real stand on the economy and risk being forced to stand on the train, Messr. Dodd has chosen to sit on his hands to protect his Gold Coast cronies and to sit comfortably amidst the Republican financial service special interests who vote Democrat because he makes no bones as to his true master - the individuals who drove the economy into the ground.

Do not fail him for his inability to articulate the full thrust of his mercenary behavior. It's just hard for him to articulate the strong emotion he feels when confronted by a money manager who is upset that he may have to sell a vacation home because of some inconvenient truths.

Connecticut, like other fantastical places such as Long Island and California, are big on government projects, while the rest of the nation pays for them.

If you are a religious person, please pray that Obama nominates Dodd as his running mate so that Dodd must relinquish his committee seat. The Right Honorable Senator should apply his talents to a job befitting his past record - such as attending state funerals in Kazakhstan and other ceremonial functions where he will do little damage. Of course, you will need to throw in a prayer for Mr. Obama's health as well. Thankfully, prayers are free.

The only thing he should be concerned with is how to make a living, working in the "Real World".

He is incapable of even generating a good excuse!!
Can you imaging the Chairman of the Senate Banking Committee--
"Not knowing the range of home mortgage interest rates given by banks"????

A CROOK IS A CROOK!!!

Fooogetttabout it!!!]]> http://seekingalpha.com/article/87242-the-dodd-days-of-august?source=feed#comment-215598 215598 Sun, 27 Jul 2008 11:08:10 -0400
It's laughable how the "help 400,000 borrowers" is unquestionably bandied about, without any qualification whatsoever.

You'd think that SOMEONE would attempt to be conservative in their predictions, especially in light of how far short to expectations the previous initiatives have fallen. ]]> http://seekingalpha.com/article/87242-the-dodd-days-of-august?source=feed#comment-215588 215588 Sun, 27 Jul 2008 11:00:51 -0400 http://seekingalpha.com/article/87242-the-dodd-days-of-august?source=feed#comment-215487 215487 Sun, 27 Jul 2008 09:23:43 -0400 http://seekingalpha.com/article/87242-the-dodd-days-of-august?source=feed#comment-215451 215451 Sun, 27 Jul 2008 08:35:04 -0400
That's why he uses euphemisms like "poor lending practices" and "lack of transparency" instead of the word FRAUD.]]> http://seekingalpha.com/article/87242-the-dodd-days-of-august?source=feed#comment-215431 215431 Sun, 27 Jul 2008 08:03:33 -0400 http://seekingalpha.com/article/85953-yahoo-s-settlement-with-icahn-puts-microsoft-takeover-to-rest-for-now?source=feed#comment-211871 211871 Tue, 22 Jul 2008 18:21:42 -0400 http://seekingalpha.com/article/85953-yahoo-s-settlement-with-icahn-puts-microsoft-takeover-to-rest-for-now?source=feed#comment-211107 211107 Mon, 21 Jul 2008 19:22:17 -0400 The stock will never reach into the 30's, again, on its' own.

the stock has gone backwards.]]> http://seekingalpha.com/article/85953-yahoo-s-settlement-with-icahn-puts-microsoft-takeover-to-rest-for-now?source=feed#comment-210941 210941 Mon, 21 Jul 2008 16:31:06 -0400 http://seekingalpha.com/article/85953-yahoo-s-settlement-with-icahn-puts-microsoft-takeover-to-rest-for-now?source=feed#comment-210494 210494 Mon, 21 Jul 2008 09:25:59 -0400
