I think that any wrong doing should be prosecuted. But just because President Bush did something 10 years ago, that does not mean that his son has to follow. The difference between the S&L's and Enron is that the public bailed out the S&L's but they did not bail out Enron. We(as a people) are not worse off because of this collapse and there will be no billion dollar bail out of Enron. I feel for the people that lost their savings but they should have known to diversify their 401k and they will get some recourse through lawsuit. But the government should not go balls to the wall and start sueing people.

you are correct in all of your statements

I merely wanted to highlight how wrong it was for George Bush senior to do what he did 10 years ago. George Bush senior did that so that he could please his rich liberal friends. He attacked 20,000 Americans unjustly even though they were Republicans just to make the liberals happy. George Bush did a lot of other terrible things to the Americans also. Many jobs were lost even permanently because of him. The Americans should know about it and we should be very wary of his son as a result.

That is my angle, but you are very sharp to poke holes through what I said.

That's exactly correct. If those people in the S&L mess were not prosecuted, there would have been hell to pay.

Red here seems to blame everyhting on Bush41, but does not say a word about McCain or the other Keating 5. He should be screaming about the slap on the wrist they got by a Democrat controlled Senate, but nary a peep.
