"She got a very raw deal."

Yes. You are correct, her faulty memory got her lodged in a perjury trap. Very much like Scooter Libby.

Libby, of course, was a Republican tied to Dick Cheney. The technical term for that is "toast." Stewart and Leona Helmsley were guilty of the vile crime of being successful, somewhat nasty businesswomen (okay, maybe more than 'somewhat' in Helmsley's case). I have no doubt that sexism played as big a role in their convictions as seething Bush-hatred did in Libby's.

Any outcry over the deal will be silenced by congress giving the victims restitution. Those completing the most successfull ponzi deal of all time.

Correction: the most successful Ponzi scheme of all time is our Socialist Security system. There are no assets and no “trust fund” that the government keeps talking about. As President George W. Bush once pointed out in a speech, there is nothing but a file cabinet full of IOU’s - i.e., U.S. government debt. Anyone who doubts this should ask for the balance of his or her Socialist Security account. LOL. Payments to retired suckers are made by collecting taxes from new suckers. The entire SS system is also a violation of the Constitution. If a private pension plan were set up in the same manner as SS, the corporate officers would go to jail. Our Congressmorons should be in jail for allowing it to continue.

Attorney General Eric H. Holder, Jr., it should be remembered put together the pardon-for-pay (1 million bucks plus to the Clinton "library").

Rumor has it that is was upwards $100 million and the services of his wife.

We will never know. Madoff will serve a ten month sentence at a Federal White Collar Crime facility, play golf every day, do two weeks community service in a NYC kitchen for the homeless, before whisking himself off shore to a Carribean hideaway where he will entertain his dem friends on the off season, until he croaks pleasantly in a cloud of cigar smoke.

Where IS the MSM on this?

TURDS!
