Goldline girds for Weiner assault

May 17, 2010

Forget Goldman. New York Rep. Anthony Weiner has been shooting a bit lower in the finance food chain, going after gold dealers.

His latest target, the company Goldline, which has made its name profiting –– with the help of conservative talkers –– off fees for buying and selling gold against public anxiety.

A representative of the company circulated an email this afternoon:

   Tomorrow May 18th Congressman Weiner (NY-D) will be either having a press conference or sending out a press release that will involve Goldline International and Glenn Beck. Congressman Weiner will also be going after other conservative supporters that endorse Goldline International. We are not sure what exactly Weiner will be saying but we do know that it will not be favorable to either Goldline or any of the conservative personalities that support Goldline.

   Goldline wants to make sure that you are aware of this situation. Mark Albarian (President and CEO of Goldline) and Scott Carter (Executive Vice President of Goldline) are available at any time to address questions and concerns.

A Weiner aide forwards his advisory, headed, "'Goldline' Rips Off Consumers, Profits Off Public Fears, Likely Violates Federal Law."

"The company has formed an unholy alliance with conservative pundits to drive a false narrative and play off public fears in order to sell its products," says the release. Coming soon to MSNBC...

Seriousness of the charge, and all that.

Goldline has advertised with Beck and others for years.  Why suddenly a problem?

Is this the Weiner aide?







 

Because Beck's message is getting REAL close to home. Even if you don't like him personally, the dirt their digging up under their Crime Inc. story has been breathtaking.

I can see Beck digging up a big pile of shit on Weiner..

Then watch him STFU..


ETA

Bye Bye Weiner..


You just lost the elections..

Shit on Weiner. Theres an ass-to-mouth joke in here that Im just not seeing. I need lunch.

I think they should go after Select Comfort and Pro Flowers too.





In fact, I think they should ban all advertising and all sponsorship and all private ownership of companies.



And the owner of Goldline and Glenn Beck and everyone else should get the electric chair and spend eternity in Hell.

The democrats going after a company selling a legal for now anyway product? If only they went after our foreign enemies as much as they attack capitalism

They want us dealing in dollars.  Remember, there was a reason why FDR banned gold during the depression.

But make sure that Acorn keeps their doors open, and keep supporting black panthers who harrass people at polling stations.   Then everything will be fair.

You broke my sarcasm meter........

Even though Beck is just presenting pasteurized Alex Jones stories (I know because I often listen to both), I agree with you.  It's too close to home and too mainstream.   Plus the leftist elements in society (and on this site) have a personal vendetta against gold.

I thought Viagra was a weiner aide.

We should give Acorn 12 trillion dollars.
per week.





 

Goldline sounds like a major scam.  Who here has purchased gold from them?  

Is Beck saying anything that can be proven to be not true?  I'm just askin'...

what a doosh

Maybe I'm missing something, but why does the headline say "likely" breaking federal law?

Wouldn't that be something to check into before getting into a big stink about it?

He's a loser.  Bill Clinton mouthpiece.  ZERO politician.  Just wants to be mayor, never will be.

FAIL.

You forgot the biggest evil of them all:
VERMONT TEDDY BEARS

YOU LEAVE MY TEDDY ALONE!!!




 

   

Great one

2 wars, economy is still in the shitter, fed gov expanding at an astounding rate, a growing war on our southern border, imigration, etc etc

And THIS is what this twerp is worried about?

You know how I know our country is screwed?

There has never been a "man" so aptly named.  

Don't know about Goldline but I have been involved in some of the "e-gold" type companies folks would do well to stay away from the companies that sell you gold that you never get and is stored elsewhere like as a stored value balance (no pun intended)

what I do object to is Mark Levin, Hannity and others (not sure about Beck) that do these OMG the economy is failing bits then seamlessly roll in to "i have invested with gold seller X for many years and it is a great way to hedge against a bad dollar" or whatever their hook is.

Buyer beware and all but when you create an air of fear about something and then sell what you allude to being an antidote for it, that gets a bit iffy morally to me. Don't know if it is against the law, don't care, not my job to figure that out. But I'd hate for someone to hear the message of a radio personality they like a lot and then invest in something that isn't necessarily good for them. Remember not everyone is as saavy and brilliant as all the ARFCOM folk.

ETA: Totally agree with the folks that think there are more important things to worry about. Looks really shady to go after someone like Beck when you are target of someone like Beck. Completely stinks of, I will use my power to silence those who oppose me fairly. And at the end of the day a congressman using his or her power to silence someone who has not been shown to be lying about them is probably worse than any iffy advertising bs.

Why wait, let's start digging.  

What a dick!

No, both of them are insightful.  Beck just avoids some of the tarnish that Jones gets by carefully avoiding certain issues.  Beck outright pirates a lot of Jones's material.  However, as long as the good word gets out there, it's good for all of us.

I hate it when firemen recommend a fire extinguisher, they should just do their job!

Seriously! how the fuck does a guy with that last name make it in politics?? everytime I hear that name it cracks me up, and when I see that worthless fuckstick start opening his suckhole about something, it makes me laugh more.


Goodluck with wasting our money investigating nothing Anthony, you worthless fuckstain!

I think Goldline sells physical gold don't they?

Are they going after all the other coin and bullion dealers too?

I suppose a couple dollars over spot is to much profit for the Marxists in Congress.

These FUCKSTICKS in Congress really piss  me off.

It's quite obvious the administration (including Obama) don't let facts get in the way, nor do they bother reading bills before ripping them to pieces and making totally bogus claims about them, so why would this be any different?

That's what our government does.  



ETA:  And Algore with carbon credits.



If I have a choice between investing in gold or carbon credits... I think I'll take gold.

But I want the actual gold in my possession.
