What possible good would having my opinion do? From what I read, most people
don't even clearly understand the charges against here - which do not include insider trading. Why is this on a recipe newsgroup? Pardon me, I'll go grumble elsewhere. CatinTX |

I understand the need to keep it such but question 3, "Do you think Martha is not guilty and will be found innocent of all charges?" should have been broken down into two questions. "Do you think Martha is not guilty?" and "Do you think she will be found innocent of all charges?" The Ranger |

This isn't a "recipe" newsgroup. If you want only recipes then head off to rec.food.recipes where it's nice and moderated and NO discussion is allowed. It seems as though you may be happier there. -- Steve Men are from Earth. Women are from Earth. Deal with it. |

She would appeal that one on constitutional grounds. IIRC, the lie that she told was that she proclaimed her innocence -- part of her right to due process. It would be like charging people with perjury for pleading "not guilty" in a trial if they were eventually convicted. So I'll ammend my prediction a little: *long* prison sentence if she's convicted, overturned on appeal. Bob |

I think that is the most troublesome aspect of the case. She may have lied, and that may have propped up her company's stock. I don't see how they could prove that she lied with the intent to prop up the stock unless she explicitly told someone her motivation. In the end, she acted as a private citizen with respect to her stock transactions, not as the head of her company. I think this is where the prosecution will fail. I think she will walk, or there will be a last-minute deal where she pleads guilty to some minor infraction and pays a large fine. She will say that she admitted guilt to minimize damage to her company and the prosecutors will be able to save face. |

But it's not as bad for the government as the OJ jury that was stacked with black women who think it's ok for their husbands to beat the shit out of them. I know that may sound racist to some BUT the jury consultant hired by the dream team admitted that's exactly what they wanted to do. Clark and Darden were too stupid to see it coming. Stewart is knowledgeable about stocks, that's what she did for a living. It comes down to how she plays to the jury. She lied to the feds, that's not a smart thing to do. My prediction, she is found guilty and does some time. -- ================================================== ======================== "When a broad table is to be made, and the edges of planks do not fit, the artist takes a little from both, and makes a good joint.

SHE IS IN FEDERAL COURT BECAUSE SHE LIED TO FEDERAL > PROSCUTORS AND HER STOCK HOLDERS! I feel the same way about Rush Limbaugh. He is under the thumb of the prosecutor in Palm Beach County because he purchased drugs in a Denny's parking lot with boxes full of cash. He illegally structured bank withdrawals to hide the transactions. Then he obtained duplicate prescriptions from multiple sources simultaneously to feed his addiction. There are pharmacy and bank records to support this. In addition, his housekeeper supplied voice recordings and emails to support the claim that he had her illegally obtain narcotics for him. Now, after bashing the ACLU and liberal trial attorneys, he hired a liberal trial attorney to defend him and has not refused the help of the ACLU on his behalf. Any common person would have been in jail by now, but Rush asserts that he is being unfairly treated because he is a celebrity. His attorney asserts that there is no utility in charging him with a crime, however Rush says that more white people (his term) should be prosecuted and "sent up" for taking illegal drugs. They claim that there are no victims, but someone had to knock over a drug store, steal a delivery truck, or break into a warehouse to divert the "prescription drugs" for sale on the street. The housekeeper was pressured to do illegal acts. Limbaugh claims to be the highest rated talk show on radio and is definitely Clear Channel's cash cow. His illegal acts jeopardize that company's bottom line the same way that Martha's alleged illegal acts impact her company. The only difference here is that I would enjoy seeing the Bush puppets, Clear Channel and Rush Limbaugh, suffer and you would like to see liberal Democrat, Martha Stewart, suffer. |

I think > everyone should. The point will not be lost. I'm afraid that it will be lost it the vast right-wing spin cycle. Example: " We went to war because of WMD. There are no WMD. The war was justified. It was the right war for the wrong reasons." "The ACLU is bad. The ACLU is defending Rush. The defense is the right thing for the wrong reason." Don't kid yourself that the neo-cons will soften on this. The ACLU defended Ollie North, yet neo-con talkers like Limbaugh and Bennett ignored that fact and continued to bash them while conveniently forgetting to mentioning the assistance they gave to North. Now rabid conservative Bob Barr works for the ACLU. That doesn't stop the right-wing attack machine from smearing the ACLU. I don't see that the Limbaugh case will be any different. I think the ACLU should have stepped in to defend some lower profile case much earlier if they had a problem with this law. I believe it has been on the books for a decade. |

It is like corporate welfare when the ACLU uses contributions form "the little people" to defend people like Rush who is worth hundreds of millions of dollars. If Rush made a huge contribution to the ACLU to compensate them for their services, then I wouldn't have a problem with this situation. I don't see that as a likely outcome. I see the ACLU as an organization that levels the playing field to give access for people without the means to litigate civil rights cases themselves. |

He used them at a time when Rumsfield was touting him as a nice guy. The key word here is HAD. That's past tense. HAD does not mean HAVE. See the difference? Had we invaded the country in 1988 because he had WMD then we would have been right. Unfortunately,in 1988 we were supporting Iraq because they were the enemy of our enemy, Iran, assuming that meant Iraq was our friend. We also supported the Taliban because they were the enemy of our enemy, the Soviet Union. |

Many people think that Rush is a danger to our nation. That doesn't mean that he doesn't deserve equal and fair treatment under the law. While I don't agree with the agenda of Rush, NAMBLA, Ollie North, the KKK, or many of the other groups that the ACLU assists, I do believe that if you can deny one person or group their rights, then you can deny them to everyone. Are you asserting that the law should apply differently to people you don't like? |
