Kirk brought up the subject of Cohen (who is not the subject here) last night, first misstating I just read GS fired Abby for being as bullish as Brinker going into 2008 and Goldman gave her the axe today (emphasis added). Neither statement was true. Today Kirk, never bothering to correct his misstatements, or answer any questions, invited queen to keep her opinions "on the ranch" and accused queen of "personal attack" after queen noted here that the Goldman-Cohen move had taken place (according to WSJ) some months ago. Then Kirk drew his completely speculative opinions on the reasons for the Cohen move into his hypothetical apples-and-oranges questions as to whether Brinker should not be "replaced" ala Cohen.

Now Kirk says Queen should chime in and say "who gives a flying fig if the others don't beat the Wilshire5000" since they are not the topic here. Neither was Cohen, and I didn't bring her up.

I have to wonder why Kirk is suggesting what I should say. Maybe he didn't care for what I did say? He hasn't responded to any of the points I've made except to suggest I keep them to myself.

Kirk's questions as to whether Brinker should be fired as a "money manager" and Kirk's personal conjecture and assumption about WHY Cohen moved within Goldman Sachs, equating Cohen to Brinker, amount to an erroneous premise upon which is built a house of cards. If the premise is hypothetical and shaky and very possibly false, the "house" will topple. Just as it has.
