Brilliant Democrat deduction by Judicial Watch: Guilt by association not by action.

You knew him, he telephoned you, you must be guilty!

What morons: had the Bush Administration bailed out Enron like Clinton and Rubin bailed out Long Term Capital Management (with taxpayer dollars) to save Rubin's partners at Goldman Sachs millions, then the Democrats and Klayman, I guess, would have howled insider-dealing and cronyism to high heavens. Since they didn't lift a finger to help Enron when Lay called in the week before bankruptcy, they are guilty because they were once in the same business, came from the same state, had talked to them on occasion in the past, and like multitudes of Democrats took campaign contributions (sorry, Enron, money wasted).

Nice trick for Democrats and Klayman scandal mongers: It's a scandal if you do help them and it's a scandal if you don't help them. You are guilty because of who you are. It's all your fault because you haven't spent your entire life sucking from the government teat like good people should.

Excellent synopsis, and exactly right. I am disgusted with Klayman, and I hope HE goes bankrupt! This is further fuel for my belief that he is funded by someone who is NOT on my side!! Blech!

I agree they were between a rock and a hard place, but Ashcroft's recusing himself rather than naming a special prosecutor is a sure sign of bad things to come. This is the vital organ the Dems are going to stab repeatedly. Where, they will ask, is Bush's Kenneth Starr. If a clandestine blow job was worth multi-millions in investigatory expenses, how much more is the collapse of a multinational energy conglomerate where the 29 top executives sold their stock for possibly billions of dollars and the employees had their stocks frozen and were made pennyless in retirement?
