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.

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

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.
