Because I at one time foolishly sent money to Judicial Watch, would you say that HE works for ME?
"Because I at one time foolishly sent money to Judicial Watch, would you say that HE works for ME?"
I ignored this because it's so obviously foolishness. But the serious answer is that it depends on the scale of your investment and the rights that come with it. The bin Ladens have invested 2 million up front and much more that's not been revealed, according to the story. A later post says that's still very little compared to the other investors. The story, or Hoovers, says that Carlyle is a consulting firm. I don't know whether Mr. Bush works for them or is merely another investor. Either way I would say the bin Ladens are in a position to exert some influence. Also the bin Ladens are big-time. Some of the other officers of Carlyle have visited them in Saudi Arabia. That doesn't happen with a two-bit contribution to Judicial Watch.
