That’s funny, because until last week I thought the allegation of market manipulation by big banks was the conspiracy theory that took the cake.

Maybe it’s about time for you to invest in some tin foil. Truth is about to become stranger than fiction as more secrets are revealed. Oh yeah, that tends to happen when empires crumble…LOL.[/quote]

Its not news that people who are market makers can front run orders..[/quote]

Really? Because it seems to be taking the media by surprise. If it’s not news, then why is Bloomberg reporting it as “doomsday” software? Why are the other major media outlets like Reuters picking up a story that is *yawn* such old news and reporting the software’s unusual capability if it’s merely a program to front run orders? Curious.

[quote=IONEGARM]And that still has nothing to do with the hairbrained, obviously false allegations people come up with so that they don’t have to admit to themselves that Obama is their president. They dont want it to be true so it isnt. If it wasnt this it’d be something else. Wacky people are just like that.[/quote]

Sorry you can’t connect the dots. I’m not going to think for you. But I want to get this straight: We have “hairbrained” (think you mean “harebrained”, BTW), “obviously false allegations” being raised by “wacky people”. Is that your position? And yet, the case is not being dismissed, but is instead being heard on its merits. Gee…I wonder if the hairbrained (sp) military cases go to the Special Wacky and Patently False Military Claims Court? LOL! You’re killing me. Your argument would have been so much stronger if the court had decided not to hear the case. You do realize that, don’t you? Have you ever been to court, BTW? It doesn’t sound like it.

Hey, did you know that the judicial system has a neat little system for dealing with harebrained cases? They’re dismissed without being heard. It’s called summary judgment. But that didn’t happen here. So sit back and wait for a decision and keep the barbs and snipes to yourself. Because until the court hands down a decision, your defense of the proferred b.c. is just as “wacky” as the plaintiff’s allegations – no matter how loudly you bleat or how many times you call your opponents “wacky”.
