CNN just announced following up on an ealier report on CNBC that there will be no special prosecutor appointed by the Justice to investigate the Enron case.

The liberals on television were then screaming that the current man in charge of the investigation after Ashcroft recused himself worked in Houston as a lawyer with some of the principals involved here.

I thought the OIC statute was specific to the executive branch and not private?

I think that's exactly right. And Lucianne is right - he does sound just like Foghorn Leghorn. But he's not funny.

Rush and Paul Shanklin do a hilarious riff called "Dueling Bozos" with Rush doing Friz Hollings and Shanklin doing James Carville. Rush (Friz) "Too much corruptin' goin' on out theah!"; Shanklin (Carville) "At's right, corruption at de highest level!"

Priceless...
