Did You Notice The US Is Having A Coup?
From: Brasscheck ken@brasscheck.com
1. What great American statesman said this yesterday about the likely
authenticity of the bin Laden confession tape?
"That's just a feeble excuse to provide weak support for an incredibly
evil man."
Answer below.
2. Even the Washington Post must finally report, long after the fact was
widely known, that the anthrax spores that hit Capital Hill, and killed
several postal workers, were government issue, from Ft. Detrick.
4. The Post is also starting to ask question about what
really happened
to CIA bio-warfare expert Frank Olson who purportedly
jumped out a
window after a bad acid trip. (A later autopsy revealed
he also hit
himself on the back of his head with a heavy blunt
instrument before
taking flight.)
5. By the way, did you notice the US is having a coup?
Bush is now denying Congress access to routine
information (FBI records
about an organized crime investigation in Boston.)
He also has a major domestic problem called E-N-R-O-N
to deal with that
involves a lot of his close friends eligible for jail.
The difference
between Enron and Whitewater is Enron has the very real
potential to
tank US financial markets thanks to wildly out of
control derivatives
exposures.
What is a derivative? To put it as simply as possible,
it's a "bet" on
market movements that, if it goes wrong, can not only
wipe out your
investment in an eye blink, but leave you owing far
more money than you
put in the first place.
A good derivatives scam can take down one of the
world's oldest banks
(Barings), one of the world's richest counties (Orange
County,
California), and many believe even has chance of
bringing chaos to the
world's largest economy.
>From "F.I.A.S.C.O" a book about the
derivatives business written by a
foot soldier: " (Derivative) salesmen often joke
about their creations
as weapons of mass destruction; and, in fact, the
clients are often
'blown up' or have their 'faces ripped off.'"
Nice business, huh?
Derivatives are commonly packaged as
"bond-like" instruments and sold to
the knuckleheads that manage things like pension funds
and the
treasuries of state and local governments.
Friends who know the futures business have been long
scratching their
heads as to how a bunch of energy traders suddenly
became the 8th
largest business in the US. As we're finding out, they
weren't. Billions
of dollars have disappeared in the 'learning' process
and, thanks to the
the derivatives they sold far and wide, we may have
only just seen the
warm up.
=============
Answer to the quiz question #1.
Who said:
"That's just a feeble excuse to provide weak
support for an incredibly
evil man."
George Bush Jr. He was talking about people who
question the
authenticity of the bin Laden video that was released
coincidentally *at
the same time* he told Congress he was withholding
information from them
about the FBI case and the CEO of Arthur Anderson
testified before
Congress that he believes his client Enron was engaged
in fraud.
Where's a cop when you need one?
