Well, we'll see soon enough. Why would you think that a CEO would be in on such a details level type issue? If he had know, he would have blown the whistle. He's worth 100's of millions. He's not a Bernie Madoff type who didn't have real money when he started stealing. He's ex-Goldman Sachs, not some rogue operator at a hedge fund. Originally Posted by TexTushHog

He's had a shady history of questionable investments in the past. My guess is he's a crook.

Federal regulators think the MF Global ripped off as much as $1.2 billion of investor money (twice the previous estimated amount). And crook Corzine is on the lamb......... Originally Posted by Whirlaway

I'm sure TTH also doesn't blame Reagan for Iran-Contra, or Nixon for Watergate. I mean, how were they to know?

They did what they should have done. They got an outside opinion.

From an expert. Which he is, crooked (not proven) or not.

It's not like they gave an Oliver North free run of the Whitehouse as well as presidential access or got energy policy advice from Ken Lay.

Typical marshall post.

PS I can see why you are bummed out about America's future. We already have people pronounced guilty by people without the slightest understanding of financial laws and regulations and what constitutes breaking them.

When you consider that not one big business CEO on Wall Street was convicted (or even indicted) for melting down our markets, why do you think Corzine is guilty?
So guilty, that even talking to him years before he did what you assume he is guilty of, shows some lapse of judgment?

I guess the Constitution only applies to conservatives. Because they say so.
Good thing we’re in the US that still has the rule of law and due process.

I can only accept similar if the huge difference of degree and the fact of the ongoing criminal enterprise are added in.
