RAY ON Open Mic, Saturday AM:
Sadr is attacking Mahdi. (Mahdi did not turn in his names for ministers today.) Why is he (Sadr) complaining today about something that is not to take place until next week anyway.
They told Mahdi to select whomever he wanted. It’s crazy, but we wait. Waiting for the (FOREX currency) market to open back up and see if anything changed. Tomorrow the market opens and we’ll see if anything happened over the weekend on FOREX.
