Not mentioned: How is Obama able to afford to be looking at a $35 million beach house in Hawaii?
Paid for by “Millionaires & Billionaires” of course.
Why, he sold his soul, of course.
They are out for Ryan’s scalp. He must really scare the snot outta em.
Thou shalt not covet.
He knew how to invest his own money? Let’s hire him!
Yep. This is noise, but Bammers Hawaii palace may get some legs.
So, Ryan built his wealth in small increments, in manners we can all relate to and respect. If he and his wife received inheritances, let’s recall zer0 got $500k from Grandma.
I just want to throw this out there for discussion: does anybody else think that the folks at BI are a bunch of leftards?
Was I supposed to have a different reaction, Mr. Do Hickey?

On September 18, 2008, for example, Ryan attended a meeting with fellow Kleptocrats Hank Paulson (ex-Goldman CEO) and Ben Bernanke. The same day, Ryan dumped shares of Citi, GE, and Wachovia in exchange for shares of... Goldman Sachs.

Any evidence of that? That’s insider trading right there and Obama could make hat out of this... so what doesn’t he?
Every President, Congressman and Senator should provide a detailed financial summary of their investments, net worth, income, gains from their coronation on, and for every subsequent year, and keep it updated in real time on the web.
Too many of them come into Congress with modest assets and yet leave quite wealthy. How does that work? I don’t care what letter they have after their name (R/D), they need to disclose it all and continue disclosing it for 5 years after they leave Congress.
Full transparency should be the price for having power over the people and inside information, and if they are found guilty of abusing or illegally using it, they need to lose it all including pensions and benefits.
I don’t know, but who can argue with the facts. Seems they were detailed in the disclosures. Instead of being spoon feed information from your favorite media go for the facts regardless of source.
Have we come to a point where becoming a millionaire is now considered bad in America?
Are millionaires now considered guilty of doing something illegal by default?
What’s happened to this country?
Seems this site has done some looking into the claim. Good Read.
Well, if as that site mentions, there is good evidence for insider trading, THAT WILL BE AN OBAMA CAMPAIGN ISSUE.
In fact, if this is true, there should be grounds for prosecution and maybe even jail time.
For that matter, we should investigate every single stock transaction of every member of congress.
I’m not defending anyone, but I seem to remember hearing something to the effect that it’s legal for congress critters to act on insider info. That’s how all these jerks arrive with little and retire multimillionaires. Supposedly they passed a law making it legal for themselves. Hope I’m wrong, because that’s just more evidence of how scummy they are.
Hey, better late than never.
