Kirk: "Is Bob Brinker being truthful here?
Queen: "Yes. Isn't that the same question as above?"

Kirk: "How can you say that is honest advertising?"

Answer: I ask myself (and you, because you have not answered):

What part of #1 is not true?
What part of #2 is not true?
What part of #3 is not true?
What part of WHAT IS SAID is not true?

If the answer to the above is ...duh...I dunno...then you have your answer.
Apparently you are saying that what is NOT SAID is the untruth.
Even if true, that would not negate that WHAT IS SAID is true. If you think any of WHAT IS SAID is untrue, then you might concentrate on that.
Ergo, WHAT WE SEE in the ad that troubles you so much is NOT false advertising.

If you read the follow-up guidance in his Marketimer newsletter for the year that followed the bulletin in #2, he clearly stated this was not an "investment" but a market timing call. He went so far as to call what he expected the NASDAQ100 to do a "counter trend rally" in that he felt they would rally but eventually be lower...."

Yes, he expected a countertrend rally. He was wrong. That does not negate that what is said in the ad is true.

The special bulletin and the letter to his clients of managed accounts shows this is not true because he made 4 major market timing calls.

The fourth call that you seem to be claiming as the dishonesty that was NOT SAID does not negate the fact that the other claims are true. And where does it say anything in this ad about "letter to his clients of managed accounts"? Is this relevant to the current discussion? You don't like the fact that he left out of his advertising the fact that he was wrong and made a mistaken call. The fact that you don't like it doesn't mean that what is said is untrue. Ergo, what is said is not false advertising, much as you would like to believe it.

As for what I do, that is not relavent [sic] to the discussion but if you send me an email request, I'll be happy to send you a free sample of my newsletter...

Most generous of you, no thanks.

Now a question for you, though you didn't answer any of my previous questions. If you are so proud of your product and so successful, why do you find it necessary to spend SO MUCH TIME trashing someone else?
