Dream On! These people are above the law. And besides I don't think there are any golf course in jail.

[american-dolt]

Ya sure.

It's about damn time, but I won't believe it until I see them doors slammin'

If every one of these S0Bs spent some jail time I would be a very happy guy.

They are the poster boys for corporate greed.

They don't understand why they are in trouble due to their inflated sense of entitlement.

[youpeoplearefunny]

greed, sense of entitlement?

Where are these in the penal code.

That said, these people are all very greedy, made horrible mistakes gambling with the people's long term savings for short term gains, but with the exception of fuld, whose comments surely were lies, i don't see what the other people did wrong in a LEGAL sense.

[filo]

Well some of these guys have to be among the 20 investigations recently opened.

That will tell you what part of of the penal code was violated.

Other than that the above was just my personal observations and I reiterate.­...

I hope every one of these S0Bs goes to jail.

I watched that hearing- Arrogance
what about GoldmanSachs?
They are just as guilty
Bearn Stearn- and they fell down as well
Do not be hyopcrites
The Sox Act was the ignored safegaurd
Bush DOJ- tampered with do nothing performances

Nice bit of slander. Hope they collect from Huf at the trial....

[thepoliticalcat]

I have an idea! Since waterboarding isn't torture, according to the Bushies who made these people rich while destroying the rest of us, let's ... waterboard 'em!

Very interesting drawings of Fuld. Almost poetic.

This is Capitalism, it's the nature of the beast. This is why Latin America turned to Marx.

Americans aren't as smart.

[cjt1957]

Are you talking about the Latin American Americans, the Canadian Americans, the Cental American Americans, Or the United States of America Americans? If you live in Northe, South, or Cental America, you are an American..­..

[ratcityreprobate]

Phil Gramm should be on that list.
