The Right owns the web, just as it has ended up owning talk radio. Leftist ideas wither and die when subjected to rational discourse and the free flow of information.

This at least for the dems has knocked the War on Terrorism off the front pages of the media. Good or bad I'm not sure.

These demonRats want to spread "Quid pro Quo" scandal for the Enron Bankrupcy to the White House. But what they are actually doing is "Squid for Tuna"; fishing for things that are not there! Every investors should learn about the companies they are investing on. If investors should receive relieves from Government (at least that's what DemonRats are suggesting) for every bad investment they make, what kind of government are we going to have? Come on, how ridiculous is that idea?

President Bush has wisely and quickly called for a thorough investigation into the employees plight, despite his acknowledged long term friendship with Ken Lay, chairman of Enron Corporation.

Calling for help from The Guild here.

Everyone keeps referring to the close friendship between President Bush and Ken Lay. But I have read elsewhere that Lay was among those who spent one of those infamous nights in the Lincoln bedroom.

Didn't #97 state that only close friends of theirs stayed at the White House when they were there? ... (in spite of the fact that there was evidence that the first couple was not there at the time).

If my recollections are correct, I sure would like for some people to start calling Ken Lay a long-time and dear friend of the Clintons.

This article is so beautifully and simply stated. Thanks for posting it and the link to the web site.

I'm wondering if Steve Maiviglio et al., sold his Enron stock.
And, if he did; date, and at what price?

Is it any wonder that the mainstream media propagandists desire campaign finance reform so bad in order to control the flow of information, data, and as well be our only source of opinion?

Long live the free flow of information on the vast world wide web and most of all for Jim Robinson for creating this wonderful home in cyberspace called the
FREE REPUBLIC.

I would not be too quick to assume that the "public" won't fall for the DemocRATs' attempt to tar the Bush administration with the "Enron mess". Why? Because virtually every TV outlet - CNN, MSNBC, NBC, ABC and SeeBS - is trying their damndest to make this a political problem for Bush. It is becoming sickening to someone who understands the problem but the typical voter only sees or hears about 10 minutes of "new" per day. They hear the Wolf Blitzers, the Bill Schneiders, the idiots on MSNBC, the Judy Woodruff's, etc..

I am so damned angry with these media outlets. It's just a good thing that I'm nowhere near them. I'd probably end up with a felony conviction for mass murder.

But the emergence of extensive Internet data resources has enabled traditional and online news services to rapidly present a far different story than the one being pushed to the media by the Democrats.

Remind me to send a thank you note to Al Gore for inventing the Interenet .... Bwahahahahaha

And they were blocked from selling company stock held in their retirement funds, while company executives made over $1 billion in their liquidation of company stock.

Not true. They caught many of the media lies, but not all of them. First of all, the stock was only blocked for a short while, while they changed the companies handling the retirement accounts. Otherwise, anyone could have sold any time this past year. Second, according to an article by Rush Limbaugh posted a little above this one, Enron's boss did NOT sell stock, nor did most of the officers. One officer sold stock, but according to Rush he would have done better if he held onto it and sold it now. I find that a bit hard to believe, but I take it that what Rush said about the big boss hanging onto his stock is probably true.

Why would the Dems lie about this? Because they want to make it look like heartless rich people screwing the working class, with Bush's complicity. None of it is true. Yes, the officers of Enron must have made some terrible mistakes and committed crimes. But like the workers they all got badly hurt in the meltdown.

Thanks to the Internet and FreeRepublic in particular, it is going to be much, much more difficult for the RATS to get away with lies. Man, they must really, really hate FReepers.

We got on this early. I've been feeding numerous articles to Larry Elder and Al Rantel at KABC in Los Angeles. They have effectively carried the debate and outed the RATS.

And Democrats who staked a claim to this “scandal” will earn the distrust and perhaps contempt of the American people.

From this print to Gods' ear. They've already earned plenty of mine.
