remember enron?
remember ken lay?
ok, to refresh your memory, ken lay was the ceo of enron and he was also one of gw bush’s best friends and biggest campaign supporters. he let bush fly around on the enron jet during the 2000 campaign and was invited by dick cheney into the white house to help formulate energy policy. oh, he also presided over the biggest corporate scandal in the history of the u.s and basically ran enron into the ground, thus defrauding thousands of people of their retirement income…
from todays washington post:
“”former enron corp. chief executive kenneth l. lay was today charged with 11 counts of securities fraud, wire fraud, and false and misleading statements.””
yup, that george bush really can pick his friends. is there anyone associated with the bush white house who’s not an indicted felon?
