do you really think that he has bodyguards?
what's the OS HERE?
what's the OS HERE?
WHAT'S THE OS HERE?
i think the intent is accumulation...
bashers are out in full force lately for some reason...
do you have anymore SYMW's ?
oh, i'm sorry, he sounded like he was bashing and they've been coming out of the woodwork, hard to tell the legit...
I'm here because of the DD that I've done.
The CEO is extremely driven.
the only reason the stock went up is because jimmybob dd that it has great potential...
that's a pretty lame comment, "you don't think the company is going to put out a pr for a long time?" what kind of statement is this?
you might want to sell then and move on...
it usually works out to be the best time to get in...
who doesn't put their money at risk w/pennies? get real.
people are panicking...
yeah, it's based upon better than expected earnings from Lowe's and the fact that buffet predicted a 15% increase in the s&p a decade from now???
what is the pr we are waiting on?
any updates???
somebody loaded up...
5000 X .012 = 60.00 someone needed.
wow, someone needed 30.00...
or the mm's tactic for cheapies...?
Scottrade does it all the time...when there is a spike in volume, "to protect us." My suggestion is to call them and tell them that you want to place the trade super low, and then once the order is in, you can adjust.
It reminds me of ECGP, it did have a small r/s but was still one of the best calls imo.
or better yet, Alaska :)
the damage is done from too much kookaid :) lol
nah nah nah, it's like arguing with the bully at school. unbelieabable. bye, i don't have time to teach today.
no, I thought it was something that I sent earlier. this is false, same effect, you left the outcome off.
yes, I recall Dick showing up a few times. time to make your kookaid...
interesting, you left out the part about how Clinton tried to target him and the right-wing was more concerned with Monica Lewinsky, thought it was a game to deter them from his extra marital affair...
you got me: I'm on drugs, I'm stupid and ignorant, I re-write history, I am dilussional, I'm drinking the koolaid that was set before me. however, let me say, it wasn't my party that behaved in the capacity that it did for the past 8 years +, if it were, it no longer would be. anything else my freinds, in my opinion, is not only drinking the kookaid but making it too.
ok, are you saying then that mwd were found in Iraq? because I'm pretty sure I myself did not read this info anyway, in fact, the opposite.
hmmm another insult.
how are you possibly insulted? I know what happened with Ted Kennedy, I know how old he was when it happened. I know that it was tragic. How can you defend something like that, not easy and this is why you guys have been reaping on it for soooo many years.
Look at Bill Frist knowingly poisoning children, when he's a doctor for christ sake and not in his 20's. And Bush creating a false war, killing many civilians, yet Ted Kennedy is the worst of them all, why is that??
omg, where are these facts?
now you are trying to say that i'm on drugs because i have a different opinion? and what am I seeing totally obliviously?
is this all that you have, insult after insult?
Poisoning Our Children
by Lewis Seiler and Dan Hamburg
Top Republicans -- Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist, R-Tenn., and House Speaker Dennis Hastert, R-Ill., -- recently sold the future of our children to Big Pharma for a paltry $4 bucks a pop.
That's the additional cost to produce a safe vaccine, a vaccine minus the mercury-based preservative thimerosal. Mercury is a deadly neurotoxin that has long been known to cause serious learning disabilities and death, and is strongly suspected in contributing to autism. According to the California Public Schools Autism Prevalence Report for the School Years 1992-2003, the increase in autism prevalence is systemic across the entire United States "and should be an urgent public-health concern ... The disease frequency of autism now surpasses that of all types of cancer combined." The report notes a 1,086 percent cumulative growth rate of autism over the period, with a 23 percent average annual growth rate.
A recent study published in the spring 2006 volume of the peer-reviewed Journal of American Physicians and Surgeons shows that the rate of neurodevelopmental disorders in children has decreased following the removal of thimerosal from most American childhood vaccines. However, only about one-third of the 11 million children vaccinated for influenza this year will receive mercury-free vaccines.
At the end of last year, President Bush signed the Public Readiness and Emergency Preparedness Act (PREPA), granting blanket immunity to pharmaceutical companies for vaccine-induced injuries. The measure is a carte blanche for industry, allowing it even to reintroduce mercury in vaccines that are clean, and under the behest of the World Health Organization, to continue shipping tainted vaccine to the "developing world."
The federal government has known enough to stop the use of mercury in vaccines for more than a decade. Industry has known of the dangers of thimerosal since at least 1991.
But using the preservative made the sale of vaccines more profitable. In fact, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has at times seemed just as concerned about these profits as the companies themselves. Cynics have noted the "revolving door" between industry and government that seems to alter the perspective of both. In 1999, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommended "the elimination of thimerosal as soon as possible." In 2002, the CDC stated in a press release "all vaccines will be thimerosal-free as soon as adequate supplies are available." Yet, last year the CDC refused to live up to its own policy by claiming "no preference for thimerosal-free vaccines."
Laden with millions in campaign contributions from the industry, some members of Congress are eager to plead that Merck, GlaxoSmithKline, Wyeth, and Eli Lilly might have to close up shop if they were forced to take responsibility for injuries caused by their products. These companies hardly need the help. Pharmaceuticals, despite their whining about risk and R&D costs, are some of the most profitable businesses in the country with the median profit margin of the top 10 companies more than five times that of all other industries on the Fortune 500 list.
In order to secure passage of the PREPA, Sens. Frist and Ted Stevens, R-Alaska, joined by Speaker Hastert, assured their colleagues in the House-Senate conference committee that immunity for the drug companies would not go forward as a tack-on to the 2006 defense appropriations bill. There were no public hearings on the immunity provision, no debate, no disclosure of the proceedings of the committee. Press coverage was virtually nonexistent. According to one prominent member of the committee, Rep. David Obey, D-Wis., "That legislation was unilaterally and arrogantly inserted into the bill after the conference was over in a blatantly abusive power play by two of the most powerful men in Congress." Sen. Ted Kennedy, D-Mass., called the legislation "a blank check for the industry." Sen. Robert Byrd, D- W. Va., dean of Senate rules, opined: "There should be no dispute. The processes leading to passage of this bill [was] an absolute travesty."
The PREPA is unconstitutional. It removes the right to due process and judicial review for persons injured by vaccines, thus granting a virtual license to kill. Under the new law, companies making vaccines can be grossly negligent and act with wanton recklessness and still escape liability as long as they can show that their misconduct wasn't "willful." It is impossible to conceive of a lower standard for the drug companies or a higher burden of proof for injured parties.
The refusal of the drug companies to take responsibility for the products they produce, and the complicity of the highest levels of government in their refusal, will diminish public confidence in the entire U.S. vaccination program. Already, thousands of mothers, including our own daughters, are fearful of having their infants and toddlers vaccinated.
The PREPA also pre-empts the laws of states, including California, which have passed legislation outlawing mercury in childhood vaccinations. Meanwhile, the CDC continues to send its officials into state legislatures around the country in attempts to abort measures banning mercury.
It's worth considering why the drug companies feel they need such treatment. Is it because they have known for decades that their product is harmful? As we learned with Big Tobacco, denial is the first defense. Eventually, the truth will come out about mercury and the depravity of injecting a neurotoxin into the bodies of infants and toddlers.
