3. THANK YOU!

I told my husband about what I heard on AA, but he is very skeptical that such a rightwing mag would turn against der Fuhrer. Now I have PROOF! :D

6. It's an opinion piece in Barron's but it isn't the official opinion of

the editors. So you're both right.

10. I think it says the author is the editorial page editor.

That sounds like a pretty official editorial from Barron's.

11. Do they have "editorials" like newspapers which are the official

opinion of the paper, or is an article by the editorial page editor the closest thing for Barron's?

14. This is the first time I've read a Barron's piece,

so I can't answer your question. But it seems like when the editorial editor writes a piece advocating *'s impeachment, and Barron's chooses to publish it, that's significant. JMTB.

I printed it out the other day from DU and made copies and passed them around to my friends at work. I was really impressed that it was written in Barron's.

12. An Example of What a Lot of CEOs are Worrying About Now

Applied: Arrests overdue

The chairman and chief executive officer of Palm Beach technology company Applied Digital Solutions (Nasdaq: ADSXE) said news of the arrests of individuals who may have manipulated Applied shares is long overdue.
On Wednesday, Reuters reported an FBI special agent and former agent were among five people indicted for using confidential law-enforcement information to operate an insider stock market trading and extortion ring.

Although Reuters said the indictment did not specify which publicly traded companies were targeted, Applied CEO Richard J. Sullivan said the stock manipulation scheme likely hurt shareholders of Applied.

He did not say why he suspected Applied shares were involved in the scheme.

The government accused the suspects of improperly short-selling publicly traded stocks, which involves an investor putting out false rumors about stock and then profiting when that stock price falls. The defendants in the case appear to be based in New York. Kevin Donovan, assistant director-in-charge of the FBI in New York told Reuters the thousands of men and women of the FBI were distressed that a current and a former FBI special agent are among the defendants in the investigation.

This was from 2002. They have been at it for a while.

13. And Who Could Forget the reThugs Breaking Into the Senate Dems' Computer!

Edited on Wed Dec-28-05 02:59 AM by AndyTiedye

Another GOP Break-in vs. Dems
Reuters 2003-11-26 18:49:00.0

A top Senate Republican expressed "deep regret" Tuesday in announcing that an internal investigation of computer records found that one of his staffers had "improperly accessed" Democratic documents... (and) a former staffer "may also have been involved," but he declined to identify either person.

"I am mortified that this improper, unethical and simply unacceptable breach of confidential files may have occurred on my watch," the Utah Republican told a news conference. Hatch said the staffer who obtained access to the memos denied giving them to the news media, and it remained unclear how reporters got them.

The disclosure came a week after congressional law enforcement authorities began looking into what Democrats called an apparent computer theft of 14 staff memos critical of President Bush's embattled judicial nominees.
...
"It is with deep regret I must report today the interviews conducted to date have revealed that at least one current member of Judiciary Committee majority staff had improperly accessed at least some of the documents referenced in the media reports," Hatch said.
