Let's here your opinion about Weisshole right here.  Negative opinions only, since he only allows ass kissing on his site.  Let'em rip.

Hiding behind the loosely guided job description..journalist guys like Gary Weisshole, Herb Greenback and Jim Crametalk try to protect themselves and their onesided opinions from any and all scrutiny. When they are scrutinized they get on their respective bully pulpits and try to convince their peers and the few in their little world that they are right and everyone else is cazy and or stupid. I say if they were reall "men" and not the girly men that they are why not set up a public debate with the likes of Patrick Byrne, Jim Dacosta,Robert Shapiro, Dave Patch and yourself and air this the dirty laundry of Wall Street in public. My mom has two sayings that I live by the first is Night can only run for twelve hours before day catches it. And Common sense is'nt that common. I have lots of thoughts on whats going on in this Corrupt market but I have a feeling that day is going to be here vey soon, finally. Man up gentlemen, lets see whose are bigger, its easy to call people names on a keyboard, lets have a public debate and settle this like MEN!!!

Can we use the term as an adjective to describe journalists that accept money (sell their soul) to lie for a living?

Jim Cramer is such a Weisshole. Can you believe what a Weisshole Carol Remond was? Only a Weisshole would lie for a living the way Stuart Z. Goldstein does for the DTCC.

Jeff Mathews is nothing but a Weisswipe.

Weissholes make a lot of money before they go to jail, but they don't have a lot of friends.

Bud, I let one rip, but now I have to wipe my Weiss.

Are there any other Weissholes we should talk about?


Reply: We can never forget about Mark Valentine, Elgindy and his crew, the plaintiff's lawyers for the thieves, and more suggestions as appropriate.

This man gives no meaning to the word arrogant, liar, racist and the poster child for how to scam the system and get people to hate one another all at the same time. I believe in my opinion that the books he has written were proof read by the very people he alledgedly exposed.

let me the first to rip into that peice of crap ,how dare he speak about R.A and USXP.
What are you afraid of lady gary ?Dont tell me youre afraid of a stock trading at 1 tenth of a penny ,clearly your an imbicile and have ben that way since birth ,maybe it was the stale baloney your mother fed you in the bronx.
Stop licking the hedge funds asses .
your not an investigative journalist ..thats for sure
maybe ,if you spent more time on the internet reasearching finance ,rather than observing the fine points of the female anatomy you might learn a thing or two.

i wipe my ass with you

Amazing that even after Cox (who isn't exactly a NSS believer) comes out and says it's a serious problem, Weiss is dumb enough to pull out his stump speech. It's almost impressive how stupid some people can be...

Clearly Weisshole is part of the problem. Others like Herb, will be nailed in court when the OSTK suit progresses. Journalists working for the bad guys control the major media. Fortunately we have PBS, Bloomberg, and publications without agenda. Once this issue hits CNBC and CNN, the stories of the "subprime meltdown" will be forgotten.

Bud, are there plans in the works to initiate a media campaign?

Gary Who ??? Till someone brought up his name the other day and alluded to his denigrating Richard Altomare and calling USXP a gawdawful little company, I had never heard of him...just read some of his blogs and he is clearly being fed by someone to pooh-pooh the whole NSS thing...Bud, quite frankly, in the heart of hearts, many of us seekers of the plain, unvarnished truth do not know who to believe any more...you said this Eagletech case would be a Tsunami that would send shockwaves through the entire world, and all we see is that at the moment it is a non-event in the real world...unless some heads start rolling real soon, no sane person will put much trust in any of these claims on NSS, for or against...we the investing public have heard it all and seen it all...the bottom line is that those who did not invest in any of these controversial companies (USXP, EATC, OSTK, CKMD, etc.), and that comprises about 99% of americans, would not be aware of this whole NSS thing and would be the better for it...the mutual funds are doing pretty good for the average investor, the markets abroad are roaring, etc., etc. As for guys like Altomare who I know you support and counsel, even a God-fearing guy like that host from CFRN called "controversial"...Mr. Faulk was pretty guraded about his opinion of Richard too...as long as we have CEOs like Richard Altomare who speak with great conviciton about this whole sordid mess of naked shorting but at the same time clearly have many, many skeletons hidden in their closet, there can be very little trust in the leaders of the NSS group and guys like Gary Weiss will get as much credence as those "true believers" who swear that this NSS hting is the root cause of all the malaise in our financial markets...sorry to sound so pessimistic, but I speak as un unbiased oberver wounded immensely by his six years of dabbling with USXP...

Value Investor,
Either they hid you in the closet or you have been completely detached from the investment world, judicial committees, media, SEC hearings ,etc., etc, Nice try but you sound just like a Gary Weiss or Daryl puppet. If there was no NSS there would be no Reg Sho. Settle the damn trades or maybe you don't like that idea either.

Weiss had been to his doctor twice
For infestations of pubic lice
It soon became clear
His condition was severe
So he sought Jim Cramer's advice

From an Intelligent Observer:

Dear Mr. Weisshole:

I guess footnote 24 of this landmark study went over your head. Here’s what the authors had to say; more on the footnote in a minute.

It is important to note that the study’s authors Edwards and Hanley are both economists employed by the SEC. The premise of their paper and its entire reason for being is to convince us all that short selling (naked or otherwise) has no relationship to failures to deliver in an IPO. The authors further stretch their opinion in the paper’s final sentence to more broadly point out that the “disconnect” between short selling and fails to deliver extends “outside the context of an IPO”. You seem to revel in their opinion when you use the words debunk, devastating, and hysteria in the opening sentence of your rambling blog.

In footnote 24 Edwards and Hanley offer their theory; the only reasonable explanation of where all of those fails to deliver could come from since its not short sales, alas “brokers marking short trades as long,” but then they have never seen any evidence of such conduct. After all that would be breaking the law (17 CFR 242.200 and 242.203) and we all know that no broker would do that! If they did it would render this landmark study invalid, its authors without credibility, the SEC exposed, and your journalistic integrity once again impugned.

Eagletech v. Citigroup; I know you read it, you wrote about it a few days ago. Remember! What was it that you said? Dogpile stock? Mr. Weisshole, did you read the part about the 4.1 million more shares sold than bought by 81 brokers (bona fide market makers), NONE MARKED SHORT! Do you remember where all of those trading records came from? Oh My; the SEC! I guess Ms. Edwards and Ms. Hanley missed that too! Wouldn’t that make their study a “Dogpile Study” your words not mine? How about your book? Wouldn’t that be a “Dogpile Book?”

Mr. Weisshole, a little advice, brush up on your used cars skills; your days as a respected journalist were over quite some time ago!

With Warmest Personal Regards, I remain, Sincerely,


PS: Edwards and Hanley also missed the Violation of 10(b)5 the sale of unregistered securities, as well as 18 USC 514 the counterfeiting of corporate securities a class “B” felony, punishable by up to 25 years in Federal Prison.
