Martha Stewart questions

[juan_gandhi]

I just have a couple of angry questions.

So, if President Bush lies to the people, and thousands get killed, it is okay, is not it? Unlike when Martha lies to the investigators.

So, if investigators lie to Martha Stewart, is it perfectly okay, but it is only illegal to lie to the investigators, is it not?

Does Martha have a lawyer or something? If she does, why did not she "take five" - then she could have the right not to talk about her alleged "broker tip"?

Now, that broker, Bakanovic, or whatever is his name - where did he get this information? From FDA? Is there anybody in FDA that is going to go to prison for disclosing this kind of information? Was not there a bribe involved?

And, talking about FDA - why is it so bad and illegal to bring from Canada the same drugs from the same manufacturer - they are FDA-approved, are not they? - while it is okay to advertise and prescribe and sell drugs that are not FDA-approved, and are even known to be dangerous? I am talking about Paxil and Zoloft. Are not there there any incentives and "tips" involved?

I think, it is all rather about FDA, not Martha.

За что ее осудили - хорошо известно, в Интернете написано, так что спорить здесь не о чем.
Мне кажется, Вы путаете "за что" и "почему".

а вот вы, Лужин, таки преминули ответить на заданный т-щем Ганди вопрос: почему Марту Стюарт судят за false statements и чинение препятствий следствию, а Буша - нет?

Этот вопрос не требует ответа, он риторический. Кроме того, "т-щ Ганди" все же задавал несколько иной вопрос: "it is okay, is not it?"
