Corporate sleaze spin doctors have finally
caught on, they have a problem,

http://www.techcentralstation.com/060205G.html

Prime example of slanted journalism to promote
a special interest point of view.

That is an article so slanted away from truth,
it is most laughable. Moderately intelligent
readers will quickly realize the ludicrous
nature of that article. They should hire a
decent ghost writer, like me!

The tech writer assumes you, the reader, to
be a gullible idiot. That insults me.

I suspect some White House aides are prompting
select spin doctors. That is so common.

Are you surprised? Cox is high tech's favorite son
because of his past efforts to assist them in not
having to be accountable to the public.

What are you, the reader, planning to buy into?
Historical facts or spin doctor hype?

You will note Donaldson issues a warning while

Business Centre:

Donaldson said he hoped "there will be no
legalistic rollback of any of these key items."
He predicted the next chairman "will leave
politics at the door."

Guiliani has saved himself with 911.

He could get on the ticket very easily as he has befriended many on both sides of the political arena. He may be a VP candidate on the Republican ticket. That would guarantee whoever is the Republican Presidential candidate.

is it better to be shafted by your idealogical nemesis? or back-stabbed by the party that you think represents your views?

MY senator is Trent Lott. I have notified his interns that i am concerned about trading in phantom securities. I reminded his interns that i am his constituent, and that i will continue to vote for him as along as he represents me and my state. i could care less that MS has one of the lowest avg ages in teen pregnancy and that planned parenthood is non-existant here...

Those hardly seem like the necessary qualifications
to succeed Bill Donaldson, a champion of the
investor, a paragon of independence and a general
all-around pro."

Please take action; Cox is a hardcore crook.
Cox will deregulate and write rules making it
easier for Wall Street to rip you off. He will
promote naked short selling, falsified accounting,
pump and dump schemes by executives and will make
it impossible for you to file legitimate complaints.

You will lose money if you allow Cox to takeover.

responsibility for this attempt to destroy

with President Bush.

Bush, during his two terms office, is making
every effort to assist corporations in ripping
off the American public, and every effort to
shield financial criminals from accountability.

Although different types of activities, Bush
is a crook equal to Richard Nixon.

President Bush is not a patriotic American.

Bush is a lame duck president with nothing to
politically lose but a lot to gain financially.

Please write your senators. I truly believe most
of you have no concept how critical of a situation
is this. Your investing future will be ruined if
you allow Cox to become head of the SEC.

If your personal ethics are such you don't care,
then let your greed for money motivate you to
take action against the Cox nomination.

You will consistently lose money with Cox in power.

you think?

To date, the Bush family has cost American
families, billions and billions of dollars

His nomination of Cox is nothing more than
assuring the Bush family of continued ability
to rip off tax payers in the future.

H Ross told it like it was (that sucking sound?),

unfortunately he quit for a month in the middle of the campaign, remember?

he claimed the Bush clan had it out for his family or some such nonesense...i'm sure it was all just lies..


Paranoia
Perot's paranoia is pretty well known, due to his announcement in 1992 that he was quitting the presidential race (in which he was a very strong contender) because Republican's were planning to disrupt his daughters wedding (by forging photos of phony lesbian sex.) But it has long been typical of him.

He thinks he lost his 1993 debate to Al Gore because Gore had a hidden earpiece, through which he was being fed answers, or possibly questions. (Posner, p330). While he was serving on a Texas anti-drug commission in the early 1980s, he became convinced that Charles Harrelson (the father of actor Woody Harrelson, from "Cheers") had been hired to kill him by drug dealers. (The elder Harrelson is in fact a career criminal doing time for killing a federal judge.) The FBI dismissed his fears as baseless.

Yep, and the OJ trial cost millions, and the Scott Peterson trial cost millions - they never should have been charged in view of the judicial expenses involved.

In fact, it cost far too much to prosecute crime, and then incarcerate criminals. We should just ignore crime.

The Capital Times,
Editorial: A Cox in the SEC henhouse

"...But Washington watcher David Sirota of the Center
for American Progress describes the plan to put the
conservative congressman in charge of this critical
agency as a 'Cox in the SEC henhouse' scenario.
Sirota says, 'Big Business, still looking to evade
even the weak post-Enron reforms, could not have
asked for a better corporate shill than Cox.'

...Cox has collected close to $650,000 in campaign
contributions from commercial banking, securities,
insurance and finance interests. In return for the
electoral largess, he led the fight to pass
legislation - thePrivate Securities and Litigation
Reform Act - that one analyst said 'paved the way
for corporate chieftains basically to lie without
fear of being sued.'

The good news is that Cox is not yet the SEC chair.
Because the Senate must approve his nomination,
citizens have one last chance to keep Cox out of
the SEC henhouse."

Visit Here:

http://www.senate.gov/general/contact_information/senators_cfm.cfm

Please write letters to numerous senators to object
to this nomination of Cox. Making contact with a
dozen senators will make a difference and will
only take ten or fifteen minutes of your time.

Lazy, don't care? Then bend over and enjoy because
George Bush, in keeping with his past history,
intends to again financially ream you with his Cox.

Sleaze ehhhh.... Every politician has done good and bad considering your point of view... to call this guy a sleaze is going a little too far..

Rep. Cox's expertise and his thoughtful approach to legislation have earned him bipartisan support outside of Congress as well. In 1994, President Clinton appointed him to the Bipartisan Commission on Entitlement and Tax Reform. The Los Angeles Times, in a rare endorsement of a Republican, called him "an intelligent spokesman for fiscal responsibility and an expert on foreign affairs." George Will, writing in Newsweek, praised Cox's efforts to bring honesty to the federal budget process. And The Wall Street Journal featured him as a key leader in a page-one profile on the historic opening day of the 104th Congress.

Rep. Cox has won numerous awards from taxpayer, business, and consumer advocacy organizations. These include being named a "Taxpayer Hero" by the National Taxpayers Union and Citizens Against Government Waste; a "Tax Fighter" by the National Tax Limitation Committee; a "Hero of the Taxpayer" by Americans for Tax Reform; a "Super Friend of Seniors" by the 60/Plus Association; a "Guardian of Small Business" by the National Federation of Independent Businesses; and a "Friend of the Consumer" from the citizen watchdog group Consumer Alert.

All you quote is from the Cox website.

Think there might be some bias?

Charger, you did not quote this from the Cox site,

" From 1978 to 1986, he specialized in venture
capital and corporate finance with the international
law firm of Latham & Watkins, where he was the
partner in charge of the Corporate Department in
Orange County and a member of the firm's national
management."


Cox does not mention he was one of the masterminds
of the worst Ponzi fraud schemes in state history,
which defrauded thousands,

"In 1995, he was named a defendant in a lawsuit by
investors as a result of legal work he did for an
investment group in the 1980's. The suit accused
Mr. Cox, his former law firm and two former
colleagues of misleading regulators and investors
about the condition of a real estate investment
fund. Mr. Cox, who denied that he had violated any
laws, was eventually dropped from the lawsuit and
the firm where he worked, Latham & Watkins,
settled for an undisclosed amount...."

Well, does his site exhibit bias?

"Before he was elected to Congress in 1988, [Cox] was
a corporate lawyer for the failed Irvine securities
firm First Pension Corp . . . First Pension collapsed
in 1994 after stealing $136 million from 8,500
investors, many of whom were senior citizens who lost
their life savings . . . An investor suit accused
Cox of knowing of the securities fraud and helping to
conceal it."

The San Diego Union-Tribune
Cox was defendant in suit led by Aguirre
By Dean Calbreath

"But San Diego City Attorney Michael Aguirre
who filed the case against Cox when Aguirre was in
private practice said Cox's onetime role as an
attorney for Orange County's First Pension Corp.
raises questions about whether he's the right
person to head the SEC.

'Three of Cox's clients went to prison regarding
the matters he was advising them on,' Aguirre said.
'There are a lot of questions that need to be asked
of Mr. Cox about his actions in the First Pension
case. A careful examination of the record should
be made.'"

Ripping off the elderly using a classic Ponzi scheme.

Am I the only contacting senators with intent to
protect the investing public?

EPA Wording Found to Mirror Industry's
Influence on Mercury Proposal Probed

By Juliet Eilperin
Washington Post Staff Writer

"For the third time, environmental advocates have
discovered passages in the Bush administration's
proposal for regulating mercury pollution from
power plants that mirror almost word for word
portions of memos written by a law firm
representing coal-fired power plants.

The passages state that the Environmental Protection
Agency is not required to regulate other hazardous
toxins emitted by power plants, such as lead and
arsenic. Several attorneys general, as well as
some environmental groups, have argued that the
Clean Air Act compels the EPA to regulate these
emissions as well as mercury.

Sen. James M. Jeffords says the EPA-industry
wording 'no longer comes as much of a surprise.'

The revelations concerning language written by
Latham & Watkins could broaden an ongoing probe by
the EPA's inspector general into whether the
industry had an undue influence on the agency's
proposed mercury rule, legislative critics of the
proposed rule said."

****

Bush - Cox -Latham - Watkins; spew deadly toxic pollutants
for the sake of corporate profit.

I am not surprised.

(email to senators, whitehouse, governors, media)

This email serves as a reminder to lobby against the
nomination of Christopher Cox to chair the SEC.

Last, I provided a documented history of Cox's direct
involvement in corporate crime, his taking political
fund contributions from Enron and WorldCom, along with
documentation of Cox both enabling and supporting the
First Pension Corporation ponzi scam which defrauded
thousands of elderly of thier life savings, a sum of
one-hundred-thirty-six-million dollars.

You are well aware Cox was named a defendent in the
First Pension scam, which is California's worst
case of elderly abuse in our state history. Some
of Cox's associates are now serving prison terms.

Our American public views those who abuse the elderly
in the same light we view child molesters.

Should you support Christopher Cox, you will inherently
be thought of as one who condones financial crimes
against the elderly. Should you confirm Cox, you will
send a message to America,

"I support those who financially victimize the elderly."

That notion is certain to win you votes, next election.

B: Loophole behind private pension failures ( United Press International )

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


WASHINGTON, Jun 07, 2005 (United Press International via COMTEX) -- The U.S.
agency that guarantees private pensions says loopholes in the federal pension
law let United Airlines treat its pension fund as solid for years.

That finding will be presented Tuesday to a Senate panel, investigating growing
concerns that the federal Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation will one day
require a bailout because it has been forced to pick up a number of large failed
private pension plans, The New York Times reported Tuesday.

One of those loopholes concerns radically different filing requirement by
government agencies, the PBGC said.

United, in full compliance with legally required Labor Department filings, made
no pension contributions in 2002. Two years later it filed for bankruptcy and
disclosed that it owed its pension fund more than $70 million.

However, if the UAL Corp. unit had had to calculate pension contributions using
Securities and Exchange Commission rules, it would have paid into its pension in
2002.

It is very wrongful for the SEC to be a political office.

So senseless to appointment big wigs to the SEC
from political pools. People from the academic

hired as private citizens, free of politics.

At worst, SEC big wigs should be pulled in from
Wall Street corporate pools.

With the SEC being an enforcement body, those in
corporate law should be leading. A most logical
choice is Spitzer.

We do not need ignorant criminal politicians
keeping an eye on corporate criminals.

California Democrat Senator Feinstein to introduce Cox to the Senate Banking Comittee:

Cox on Thursday assumed the voice of a regulator, decrying financial misconduct as a threat to the vitality of the U.S. economy. "The natural enemies of this economic marvel are fraud and unfair dealing," he said after his introduction by Bush.

While some anticipated a tough confirmation process, no one Thursday predicted that he would be blocked. Indeed, Democratic California Sen. Dianne Feinstein, who had held back supporting Cox when he was a possible judicial candidate for the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, agreed to introduce him to the Senate Banking Committee that will consider his nomination.

"I have no reason to oppose him and believe he's qualified to do the job," Feinstein said.

Posted by charger on :
 
But former SEC Chairman Arthur Levitt said those already lining up to criticize Cox "are going to be pleasantly surprised."

Levitt said that although he has disagreed politically with Cox on issues over the years, "I know he will put an emphasis on investor issues. He's smart enough not to polarize the diverse constituencies the commission deals with, and he knows the securities business. He's not a blind ideologue."

"...The Wall Street Journal suggests that Cox's
opponents may question his relationship with First
Pension Corp., which once was accused by regulators
of cheating investors out of more than $120
million. Before he became a Republican congressman
from conservative Orange County, California, Cox
was a securities lawyer for the law firm of Latham
& Watkins. According to the Journal, Cox did work
for First Pension and its founder, William E.
Cooper, who subsequently pleaded guilty to felony
charges in connection with the scandal and was
sentenced to prison. A White House spokeswoman told
the paper that Cox had been dismissed from a civil
lawsuit over the matter...

Shareholder groups, however, are not simply
standing by. Rich Ferlauto, director of pension
investment policy at the American Federation of
State, County and Municipal Employees, recently
opined that 'Cox's track record in Congress should
concern investors,' Added Ferlauto: 'Cox voted to
gut FASB's efforts to require the expensing of
options and in 1995 advocated an early version of
the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act that
would have repealed the recklessness standard in
shareholder suits. This proposed standard would
have let Bernie Ebbers and Ken Lay off the hook for
the financial manipulations at WorldCom and Enron.'..."

Dear Ms. Schilitubi:

Thank you for writing to me with your concerns
about the nomination of Representative Christopher
Cox (CA-48) to be Chairman of the Securities and
Exchange Commission (SEC). I appreciate the time
you took to write and welcome the opportunity
to respond.

As you know, President Bush has nominated
Representative Cox to succeed William Donaldson
as Chairman of the SEC. I will carefully review
Rep. Cox's record and the proceedings in the
Senate Banking Committee when the committee
considers his nomination. Please know that while
I am not a member of the Banking Committee, I
appreciate hearing your concerns and will keep
your thoughts in mind should Rep. Cox's nomination
come to the Senate floor.

Again, thank you for your letter. I hope that
you will continue to share your thoughts and
ideas with me. If I can be of further assistance,
please do not hesitate to call my Washington,
D.C. staff at (202) 224-3841.

Sincerely yours,

Dianne Feinstein
United States Senator
