    POLL: Is all the hateful rhetoric against Obama both shameful and disturbing?

    Yeah, after other News organizations stood up to the WH bullies: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/10/23/white-houses-fox-news-boy_n_331437.html You people are just a bunch of little cry babies and you can't stand it that people are criticizing your Messiah.

    POLL: Is all the hateful rhetoric against Obama both shameful and disturbing?

    Easy. It's called the "we won't speak with Fox News and you better not either if you want WH access" mantra directly out of the White House. A cage is a cage.

    POLL: Is all the hateful rhetoric against Obama both shameful and disturbing?

    It depends on your perspective. For 8 yrs I've witnessed outright hatred and over the top flaming, from the "Bush is not my president" to burning Bush effigies to Bush/Hitler posters. You see hatred because you take personally the assault against your side and refuse to believe that your own...

    Which prop firms don't require a series 7 license?

    Sorry. Meant to say that higher rate was for Lightspeed.(.005) .0045 was for Laser or Sterling + platform fees. These are STARTING rates, you can negotiate a little lower. My bad.

    Which prop firms don't require a series 7 license?

    JC is a CBSX b/d firm that does not require a license but need the U4. They take deposits and their rates start at .0045 (.005 for Laser + rebates). They don't ask for 6 months of trading records. That's straight from them.

    1/4% Tax on all stock trades pushed in NY Times today

    Actually we have to hope theyu have their hands busy with C&T, Healthcare, etc until Feb, at which point Congres starts their campaigning and they won't be pushing anything seriously, not matter how hard Obama may prod them. Now to Feb is the danger area.

    1/4% Tax on all stock trades pushed in NY Times today

    Actually I believe it is a problem, but not now. One of the provisions of TARP was that if there were any shortfalls in the Treasury recouping and paying down the TARP funds a tax could be imposed on WS to cover those losses, if I read the info correctly last fall. Since then, we have used TARP...

    Dubai in default- Blame Bush and Cheney

    It's all Bush's fault! These problems we are facing locally and throughtout the world have anything to do with the deregulation of the markets and the blurring of the lines from policies enacted in the 90's. Nothing at all.
