The Goldman Sachs White House's pawns have hired keyhole snoops to pry into Spitzer's life
by Wall St. Watcher Tuesday, Mar. 11, 2008 at 10:49 AM

Spitzer, most courageous AG in the country re Wall St., before becoming NY governor made enemies of Wall St loan shark capitalists. They have conspired to entrap him.

The Goldman Sachs White House's pawns have hired keyhole snoops to pry into NY Governor Spitzer's private life or else, as Wadosy speculates, to entrap him. The money of taxpayers
is being used to take revenge upon a man who courageously
fought Merrill Lynch, Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, Chase,
the Robert Rubin and Jeffrey Sachs networks,
and several other rapacious megathieves, whose operatives
are even worse than Ken Starr.

Goldman Sachs' former CEO is Secretary of the Treasury.
A Goldman Sachs operative Josh Bolten is White House
chief of staff, etc.

Paulson in his dual role as president of Nature Conservancy
turned that group of wilderness shrines into cattle ranches,
turning sanctuary into slaughterhouses, slaughterhouses
whose bloody cadavers would be part of the meat supply
for Goldman Sachs fast food stock companies.

Talking points have gone out to warmongering shock jocks
like Sean Hannity.

The sanctimonious moralizing by him and other members
of Rupert Murdoch's Fox Network, called by a US senator
the most vulgar network in broadcasting (as well as the
most warmongering) is hypocritical.



Please don't listen to neocons calling for your resignation
Governor Spitzer. Your private life is your own business.

Former Goldman Sachs Chairman John Whitehead said Thursday that New York Attorney General Eliot Spitzer threatened him during an April phone call for writing an open letter critical of Spitzer's attacks on prominent insurance executive Maurice "Hank" Greenberg.

Spitzer, through a spokesman, denied he made threats, disputed Whitehead's version of the exchange and said Greenberg, who resigned as chief executive of American International Group (AIG), put Whitehead up to writing the letter, which was published in the Wall Street Journal.

On April 28, 2003, every major US investment bank, including Merrill Lynch, Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, Citigroup, Credit Suisse First Boston, Lehman Brothers Holdings, J.P. Morgan Chase, UBS Warburg, and U.S. Bancorp Piper Jaffray, were found to have aided and abetted efforts to defraud investors. The firms were fined a total of $1.4 billion by the SEC, triggering the creation of a Global Research Analyst Settlement Fund.

In May, 2003, the SEC disclosed that several “brokerage firms paid rivals that agreed to publish positive reports on companies whose shares..they issued to the public. This practice made it appear that a throng of believers were recommending these companies' shares.” This was false. “From 1999 through 2001, for example, one firm paid about $2.7 million to approximately 25 other investment banks for these so-called research guarantees, regulators said. Nevertheless, the same firm boasted in its annual report to shareholders that it had come through investigations of analyst conflicts of interest with its ‘reputation for integrity’ maintained.”

On September 3, 2003, the New York State Attorney General announced he had “obtained evidence of widespread illegal trading schemes, ‘late trading’ and ‘market timing,’ that potentially cost mutual fund shareholders billions of dollars annually. This, according to the Attorney General, was "like allowing betting on a horse race after the horses have crossed the finish line.”

On September 4, 2003, a major investment bank, Goldman Sachs, admitted that it had violated anti-fraud laws. Specifically, the firm misused material, nonpublic information that the US Treasury would suspend issuance of the 30-year bond. The firm agreed to “pay over $9.3 million in penalties.” On April 28, 2003, the same firm was found to have “issued research reports that were not based on principles of fair dealing and good faith .. contained exaggerated or unwarranted claims.. and/or contained opinions for which there were no reasonable bases.” The firm was fined $110 million dollars, for a total of $119.3 million dollars in fines in six months.
