Newt bs Romney

[parsley]

There is a marked difference AND responsibility
between Kerry and newt when it comes to Fanny
and Freddy.
Not only was Kerry was putting a regulatory
squeeze on Fannny and Freddy's neck, but he
was trading shares off while the company was
telling their employees they couldn't trade until
the latest figures became public.

In other words, the cottons couldn't sell, but the
shitface writing and passing the rules, could
dump his losses he was about to trigger Kerry
declared $250,000.00 CAPITAL GAINS during
that short period alone, dumping his stock. The
cottons swallowed their losses. Uh huh.

And Newt was legitimately hired, by contract, to
write a report. Whether he wrote a positive one
OR a negative one didn't earn him more or less.

I see a difference in motives Does anyone else.

Parsley... Kerry is a very unethical person..IMHO.

These ridiculous "government insider" regs have been in place for years.

Regardless.. Newt was first hired in 1999, five months after he quit politics,
by Fannie and Freddie for $25 to $30 thousand per month until 2002.

Later in the 2000's he was paid a $600,000 retainer which he claims was also
for "strategic advice".

Bloomberg and HuffPost quote a Freddie official of his contracts:

" Newt was asked to build bridges with Capitol Hill Republicans and sell the
public/private structure of Fannie and Freddie to Conservatives".

Perhaps his "report" is being written this weekend... I hope not.

Seems the difference in "motives" is in the interpretation of insider vs lobbying.

Both are probably "legal" as the US laws are currently written.

The more I research... the muddier the waters!

Cheers... Bill

Parsley... When I refer to hoping the "report" is not being written
this weekend, it is because I hope he has a report.

At least for the later $600,000.

Cheers... Bill

Writing an analyis by contract, versus corrupting
legislation for personal gain are hardly
comparable.

Besides newtie is hot. LOL Pars

[parsley]

Wil, don't you think Newt is a Canuck fan?

[wilagro]

Newt is a chameleon and I don't trust him...he is another self-serving Repug...they're a dime-a-dozen.

[bduke]

Parsley... The $600,000 was a retainer. So far no analysis has been
produced.

Freddie officials say it was for lobbying.. hopefully a report is proven.

I liked his comments regarding Canada, PMSH, and the Keystone.

Regarding his sexual appeal... If you say he is a "hottie", then he should
overwhelmingly garner the support of the ambitiously/beautifully intelligent
women.

I don't envision him as a hottie... thank goodness!

Cheers... Bill

Newt, looks like a newt. He looks
untrustworthy, ask his three wives.
Open marriage advocate, talking morals
outta the other side a his mouth. He is
a huge sack of s--t at best. Yeah, I
think he should lead the Repubs inta the
next election. Get Pailin ta be his
vice and have another go at it. Butt
think abooot it, amerikie re-elected W
fer a second term and he was a disaster.
It was like givin the nuke codes ta a
monkey (apologies ta all monkeys on the
planet).......... All O Bama has ta do
is keep his mouth sbhut and he will win
agin...........

I wanted to look up the number of women voters
counted at the exit-polls who voted for newt, but
didn't redo fact check. But I did get a chuckle over
the media referring to newt as angry, and mean
and red meat, and raging and scarey, and then a
stack of women voted for him. LOL.

And so did the men.

It's gotta mean something', bduke. LOLOLOL.
