John Edwards is full of shit. This piece of shit should drop out of running for president and out of public view

Never thought ellinas and I would be in such perfect agreement!

Shrugging off the mindless, baseless attacks of Liberal hyenas and jackals since 2007

“I will not have my family’s money invested in these firms.”

It just blows my mind that people really believe statements like these are sincere. But if Hillary can be sitting at 48% in the polls, anything is possible.

Why should we have less abortions if it’s not really killing someone?

Many investors have no way of knowing what the underlying investments of a hedge fund are, given that so many are set up as funds of funds.  Given that, this sounds like a hit piece to me.

You’re joking, aren’t you?  Each fund must offer a prospectus with yearly updates giving in detail all the places they have put the funds money.  Anyway, hedge funds are not for the small conservative investor and good investment consulars will steer their clients away from them.

One of the most important talents for success in politics is the ability to make utter nonsense sound not only plausible but inspiring. Barack Obama has that talent. We will be lucky if we escape the catastrophes into which other countries have been led by leaders with that same charismatic talent.

Sure, but if the subprime component is sufficiently small, it’s not going to show up on the prospectus.

If you’ve seen a hedge fund prospectus, you should know that they aren’t minutely detailed.  And, from an audit standpoint, if the subprime component is small enough the hedge fund itself may not even know about it.

Actually, a big part of Fortress’s investments were in Green Tree, which 1 minute of googling confirms was involved in subprimes.

So my theory didn’t pan out.

It’s ok.  He can just buy some foreclosure offsets to bring his net foreclosure emissions to zero and everyone will be happy.

What I find amazing about this story, is that this is August 20th and we are not hearing too much about it.  AOL tries their best to put any story that is pro-liberal, anti-conservative on their front pages—yet- I have yet to see hide or hair of the story.  It is been kept quiet by the liberal bias of the media.  And plus, we have Edwards doing his tour 2 months ago-telling all in NO how he felt their pain.

“Mr. Edwards worked for Fortress, a publicly held private-equity fund, from late 2005 through 2006.”

For the person that thought that Edwards didn’t know what was going on with this hedge fund or that this was a hit piece—- it states in another article that Edwards actually worked for Fortress.  HMMMM me thinks that he knew what was going on and chose to ignore it. 

I think, therefore, I can’t be a democrat.
