GWB seems to have a long history of being "surprised" by how much money his company is losing. The Bush administration said today that the federal government would run a deficit of $165 billion this year, a sharp turn for the worse after four years of surpluses news.yahoo.com

well bonehead, this is interesting. talking head report. Two months later, Harken announced huge losses for the quarter ending June 30, and its stock price plunged. What really happened???? The announcement came at 9:34 A.M. on August 20, 1990. When the market opened that morning, according to the SEC, Harken's stock was selling at $3 per share. It stayed at that level until after noon, when it began a slow slide to $2.375 per share. The next day, however, it rebounded to $3 per share. If the loss announcement had been a bombshell, SEC investigators reasoned, the stock would most likely have fallen immediately and stayed down. to bad the facts leave bonehead singing the song of fools.
