Yep, it was all just a money grab by Bush for his buddies. Cheney must have
sent out his black helicopters to hold the Democrats' families hostage until
the vote was over.

I agree with you Bruce. What drove Bernie Madoff was greed. As for his
"investors", greed played a part there also, but there is nothing wrong with
making a profit. The fact that the promises made to these investors was so
great, that should have been their red flag. We would all be naive to believe
that there are not hundreds of Bernie Madoff's out there manipulating at one
level or another. Look at these companys that have been and are being "bailed
out" by our representatives who deemed they deserved it. What happened to
representing your constituents. I haven't spoken to one person that would have
approved these bailouts. In fact, most people I have spoken to were and are
adamantly against the bailouts.....and the bonuses just keep on coming!! Some
of these defense attorneys....blah, blah, blah, all the way to the bank!!
As for the SEC being asleep at the wheel, I think it was way more than that and
wonder how many pockets go padded to look the other way. As for tying this to
movie posters, that's where most of my investment is. I know it, I can count on
it, I have it insured and I trust most of the people involved in it. So, that
combination works for me. Happy holidays everyone and I hope a better
year coming for all. Suewww.hollywoodposterframes.com

[MOPO] WAY OT: What drove Bernie MadoffTo: mop...@sol03.american.edu I looked
at the cnn site just now and they have an article entitled, "What drove Bernie
Madoff". It tells about what a brilliant man he is, and it concludes "Several
people who know Madoff say his saga reminds them of a Greek tragedy. Just like
Icarus who tried to fly too close to the sun, Bernie Madoff destroyed himself
in his unending quest for success and respect. Says Madoff's defense attorney,
'this is a tragedy.'" This really offends me. He was a crook who has done
untold damage to tens of thousands of people's lives (counting the many
charitable groups he ruined) and he did so in the worst possible way, by being
a confidence man who won their trust and then betraying it. The people who were
swindled have some responsibility, because they forgot the old adage "if
something seems too good to be true, it probably is", but their doubts were
overcome by their basic greed in wanting those great returns, and in their
belief that no one could be dishonest and operate on that scale. But this crook
is the lowest of the low, and deserves no sympathy and is not "tragic" by any
measure. What do YOU think? Bruce P.S. If one thinks this has nothing to do
with movie posters, it seems an absolute certainty there will be one or more
movies made about this fraud, and that opens the question of what title they
will choose (maybe "The Death of Icarus"?) and who will be chosen to play the
lead role!
