  2. She faces up to 20 years in prison, however the TV news media speculates it will be less.

    Hmmmm.... she could work on this:

    Is she guilty? Probably. But, it sticks in my craw that the like of Hilary and Ken Lay are living
    the high life while they hang Martha out to dry.

    On my way home this afternoon I saw a billboard that must have been hastily put up. It read "Martha, you burned your cookies."

    Her take was allegedly $50,000. OTOH there is a long trail of other white collar predators out there who collectively defrauded the public of $billions$ in corporate accounting scandals and nearly all of them remain untouched by any criminal prosecutions.

    Well, since this is a *food* group, here is some food for thought. By all
    accounts, Ken Lay is a long time close friend of the Bush family, Sr. and Jr.,
    and one of their biggest campaign contributors. Martha is a Democrat......... Not
    that that makes her any less guilty, but it could explain why she seems to get
    more attention from the government than Lay does, even though her crime is on a
    MUCH smaller scale than Lay's. H

    You are correct, there are many people with worse crimes. And they should be
    prosecuted also.

    If Martha is indeed guilty, she should have some punishment.

    I'm with you on Ken Lay, but what did "Hilary" [sic] do? She made some bad
    investments. Remind me who exactly that hurt.

    I feel the same way about Martha's case. Martha simply made the mistake of
    supporting some of the Democrats's causes.

    I'm sitting here wondering what financial mess Ken Lay is
    guilty of? Hillary we know had that lil front money from
    Tyson Chicken to parlay into what... 250K or so? Very
    unusual apparently. Figures. Goomba

    Actually, Ken Lay is looking at some major jail time, if I
    am not mistaken. I do not know about his wife though.

    Huh? What's this got to do with politics? MS was convicted
    of lying to federal SEC investigators.

    Martha probably didn't cultivate ( pay ) the right poitical
    connections.......

    When all is said and done, it's usually about money.

    program where she's publicly demeaned, where she's made to
    scrub the curb the entire length of NYC's 34th St eight
    hours a day on her hands and knees, wearing a lurid jump
    suit with her name boldly emblazoned in big letters front,
    back, and across her big fat nasty butt. How dare some
    think she deserves kid

    I'm not familiar with New York City. What's special about
    34th St., that you specifically mention it?

    And paints it bright, festive colors. :-)

  18. Seems to me automatic that ... oops, it's noon, FoodTV
    will have on Martha Stewart. Guess who's *not* on FoodTV
    at noon today.

    My biggest concern is that Bush will start another war to
    divert attention from the problems with the stock market. It
    is a pretty good system in theory, but we are seeing far too
    many cases of people manipulating stocks and screwing their
    shareholders of their hard earned money.

    Hillary made 100,000.00 bucks in the futures market. She
    would not hav eneeded any front money from Tyson, she had
    plenty of her own. She made the money in one huge trade
    which is suspicious but it has been done many times in the
    past by others.

    Ken Lay is the mastermind behind Enron, a company that
    was established for no other reason than to make
    illegal profits.
