Carlyle Group in Trouble in US as well as Europe
Advertisements [?]

was on a conference call today with a banking research firm asking questions about Hawaiian Telecom. We wavered into the subject of Carlyle Group and he said 2 things that had me very happy.

#1 Carlyle Group is in Serious Trouble in US as well as Europe. Financially one of their biggest bets, Hawaiian Tel, is possibly going to go out of business. $11M cash in bank and no funding for infrastructure upgrades, Times Warner is draining off customers at rate of 4-5% per month and likely to increase.
#2 That he felt carlyle Group had not the deep pockets to bail out HT

*** WOW. this must mean their European fiasco is digging deeper into their global cash funds.

*** The phrase from a shakespeare play comes up

"Out out brief candle, life is but a walking shadow, a poor player that struts and frets (and Sucks the very cash out of the governments they intend to rape and pillage) and then is heard no more...

It is a tale told by an idiot (George Bush Sr.) full of sound and fury, signifying nothing"


OUT OUT BRIEF CARLYLE CANDLE. we may one day have our local governments back and the vile bankers who want to suck our taxpayer funds out for their global gambling escapades are NO LONGER THE WILL OF THE PEOPLE..

rise up great people. make it so!
