illegal Short Sellers may face RICO.......

First, it says "Illegal". So don't get your panties in a wad. This has to happen. Second, Rico worries the Mob. It's jail, treble damages, and disgourgement, and it's going to bring some big name hedge funds to their knees. I couldn't be happier.

What about the subprime "profits" that where all based on fraud?

Jail-time and disgorgement of booty?

Are you really the CEO of overstock.com? I saw that in an earlier post. Overstock is up 5% today btw.

Yeah. I have a half billion dollars, so I gave up the chicks, booze and world travel to hang here.

Herb has been banished from CNBC. Think those guys are worried?

Much to come about Herb. It's going to be fun. I'm a real prick, and I love payback.

either broker/market makers comply with regulations or they lose their brokerage license.

no license no business.

trading securities is not a right but privilege

got to laugh at market participants complaining about restrictions on trading on the exchange.

don't like the rules,,please leave. the door is that way!!!!

LOL! Ok, I take it whoever posted you being the CEO was full of shit.
Me being me, I was going to pm you a couple of Alternative programs in Natural gas, and an all cash private reit if you were the CEO of overstock. I was thinking, "you never know. Maybe he is the CEO, and likes hanging around with the rest of us.

Sorry for the confusion.

All in fun. But no, as much as I respect the guy, I am not him. But I'm not Ted Stevens either, so I guess it all works out.

This guy "The KIN" started that stupid rumor. So, with Patrick all over TV last week, I was going to do a Lois Lane. I thought I'd post at the very same time I, uh, I mean Patrick was on TV.
