Enron is a grotesque fraud - a financial monstrosity of manipulation and falsification Sounds like the "dot-com revolution" that recently crashed and burned.

Those bank lawyers won't put up with any "poor us," "it's the economy", or "wave the flag" defenses. Should be a fun story for months to come. Now if some bank could sue the baseball owners...

Ken Lay gets what he deserves. He's a RINO sellout who pretends to be a Republican when it is convenient, but turns around and holds fundraisers for Democrats when they'll build him and his millionairre buddies sports stadiums and light rail lines.
Lay and Enron held a big 250,000 Lee P. Brown reelection fundraiser high atop their soon-to-be-repoed downtown office building just a few weeks before the company went belly up. Call it justice.
And sorry in advance to any freepers who were enron stock owners. You picked a corrupt scumbag company that also happens to pull the strings at the democrat houston mayor's office to invest in.

It should be noted that Amalgamated is about as close to a lefty socialist institution as any American bank can possibly get. They're the bank all the hardcore ultra-angry liberal union types patronize in NYC; the few ads they run are filled with multiculti hardhats and civil servants. They don't even have a web site, to my knowledge, and their HQ is on Union Square.
In other words, I could take this lawsuit seriously if it were being launched by ANY other financial institution in the United States, except this one. If there's any bank that would be out purely to put the screws to some capitalists, it's Amalgamated.

Enron is a grotesque fraud - a financial monstrosity of manipulation and falsification Amalgamated Bank's lawsuit This is the same Enron that the energy groupies (you know who you are) defended when because it was suggested by Gray Davis they price gouged California citizens through a phony Republican "deregulation" scam...
Why would anyone think a company like Enron would gouge California, or an other state's citizens?< /sarcasm >
