A financial swindler who's a Democrat? That's unusual! It's usually the Repigs, like Stanford, who excel at that.

Perhaps Madoff had a little social conscience left. He mostly only swindled the rich.

And people who thought they could get something for nothing.

Repigs have been cheating everyday citizens for decades.

Look at how much Bushit stole from us to give to his billionaire pals as tax cuts.

And Bushit has a nice retirement home in Texass.

Wow. These extremeists really need to think about what is coming out of their mouths. It is very dangerous to generalize as much as is done here.

stickdog3, You're exactly right, but please remember that eventhough these women know more than they'll ever admit, they are all poor little victims of mean men...and as victims, they need as much money as they can keep because, after all, they do have to keep up appearances...

This whole thing is so predictable,what I mean how these women will say "I didin't know he was like this" come on. You living in a $7 million dollar penthouse apartment in NYC, you have a $11 million dollar house in Florida, you own a multi million dollar yacht, he's put $80 million worth of money and assets in your personal account, and yet you never ask or say "honey you're doing real good, but, honey are you doing that good"? Maybe you did ask but, you never followed through because you're living a privileged life, theres no way you're going to ask, are you kidding me? Reminds me of the line in that movie coming out this week, about John Dillinger, he was pursuing this girl who was a hat check girl in this club, anyways, she was pretty smart to ask questions up front, anyways she asked "just what do you do"? I guess after seeing him with the signs that he probably had money. Anyways he answered "I rob banks", simple as that, they became a couple shortly thereafter, at least he was straight up and she was straight forwad in wanting to know. Wonder if Ruth ever asked that question?

Darthcheney you are an insult to the name, and considering he's the lowest low-life this country's ever let get into power, that's saying something.

Obviously you can't read. All her possessions are part of the $171 Billion judgement. She gets $2.5 mil and that's all. To her this would be like the average American being left a quarter.

Are you kidding me? How many single Moms are there in the world right now because the Dads won't take responsibility? You're an idiot who sounds like he won't take responsibility. And, can anyone tell me why this woman is shown sitting in the subway when she has 2.5 million?
