Pathetic that we have to rely on the foreign press to point this out.

Clinton Link With Enron Lowers The Heat On Bush

And may it continue to lower.

We know all of Clinton's friends were crooks and he was never embarrassed. How close is Bush to Lay?

[RoseofTexas]

Don't hold your breath! The RATS talking points are out and THEY will continue to attack, blame and if possible find a way to incriminate Mr. Bush.

[dalebert]

Bush said this needed to be investigated. Guess he was right again.

In case you did not know, the US media spins only oneway, and that's to the left.

[truthkeeper]

Don't worry, I know. Only too well.

[OldFriend]

The RATS have lost their voice on this one, except for Waxman. It's the media carrying this story to the sheeple.

Mr Rubin made his call last November to Peter Fisher, head of the Treasury's domestic finance section, in his current capacity as chairman of Citigroup, one of the main creditors of Enron. A month later the company went bankrupt in the biggest financial collapse in modern US history.

I didn't realize that Rubin was the head of Citigroup making the call -- thought he was a consultant. This puts things in a really different light to me with Citigroup being Lieberman's biggest contributor. Sounds like Citigroup wanted Enron to be bailed out by the Feds so their worthless paper of $3 billion would be worth something. This thing smells!

Damage by that spin, however is always a function of the length of time they can keep the public's eyes on their balls! When a President is already unpopular or marginally so, the media can spin until enough damage is done to ruin an administration's effectivness. To be sure, if the president is liberal, the scandal must be enormous in order to make the mediacrats start even a mild spin. But whether conservative or liberal, even the ALL POWERFUL MEDIA can't really do any lasting damage to a popular president.
And if you haven't noticed, Dubya is VERY popular. This is just about over.

Somebody needs to suggest that Lieberman recuse himself. Somebody with a public mega-phone, somebody with credibility.

I am really appreciating your posts today! My background info is shaky and you always seem to make connections that I would never get. You are making this so much easier.

I told someone earlier today that we need to start a thread asking LIEberman to recuse himself and have freepers flood his office and the national press corps with that request!

[PhiKapMom]

Thanks I really appreciate your kind words. I think my brain has gone into overdrive on this one!
