"The Fifth Column among our leaders has been very busy--and Toon set the stage. His legacy may be far worse than we ever imagined. He didn't do it alone."

"William E. Conway, Jr.--Mr. Conway, a Director of Global Crossing since August 1998, was a founder and has been a managing director of The Carlyle Group, a private global investment firm, since 1987."

"Former President Bush benefitted from the tech stock inflation bubble just like a lot of people. But you failed to mention that this stock is now worth about what it was when Mr. Bush received it! $13 a share! Which means his $14 million stock holdings - if not sold"

"Former President George Bush accepted stock in lieu of an $80,000 fee for making a speech at a Global Crossing event. That stock is now worth millions of dollars.

Then I guess the next question would be "Did he Sell it?", and if so, WHEN?
