Wow. Yahoo is at the top of its investigative journalism game. If only they were around when the press was vetting Obama. Wait a minute...

Sgt. Bales, or someone who looks like him, once washed my car for free when I wasn’t around.

In an article in Cincinnati, residence of Bales, there was additional information.

Bales was a financial advisor in one of the businesses filed against by this couple. In all, there were 7 individuals and businesses in this filing. Bales was a part (employee?) of just one of those businesses.

So, one has to wonder if he isn’t in the same boat as an insurance agent who serviced a client but who actually worked for a larger company. The client would know “him” but not the company.

Now, we also have to ask why this information against this individual is being carried by the media at the time this soldier is charged of something entirely different.

This event happened prior to the soldier even enlisting in the military right after 9/11, so it had to have come out in any security investigation conducted by the military in order to issue a security clearance to a SSG.

I call BS. If this couple were awarded money from arbitration, the broker-dealer would have beenon the hook as well as the brokers. FINRA, SEC, SIPC insurance, E&O insurance all exist for a reason. Bernie Madoff’s portfolios were fiction and his investors are still getting some money back.

Well, if this soldier really is a twerp, maybe he did this killing to cause Obama to pull out the troops. You know, to cause such an uproar that the public demands the speedy return of all soldiers. Then Obama could say he had no choice. I pray this was not it, but these days you never know. For someone to go into a village and shoot 16 people, then walk back and turn in his weapon? Sounds suspicious to me. I’m not a conspiracy nut, but we still need to be careful what we take at face value.

The Liebschners claimed they asked Bales to sell their AT&T stock to pay for medical bills. They said they never got the money and soon after Bales fell off the radar.
