Uh, i don't get it. Why *Demrongate*? Am I missing something here? Did Bill Kristol (Dan Quayle's former chief of staff) become a Democrat at some point when I wasn't paying attention?

No, it has nothing to do with Kristol, not to mention Kristol was paid for a service, NOTHING ILLEGAL, the point is......The RATS have launched this attack against conservatives and come to find out it was the "stainmaker" X42 who did Enron all the favors! HENCE.....

***DEMRONGATE***

Well, Kristol is my nemesis, and I don't wish to bore you with the details, but I do not consider him a Republican or a conservative. If you want details, send me a freepmail.

Yes, he was Dan Quayle's Chief of Staff. Dan Quayle in his book says that James Baker wouldn't let Kristol sit in on campaiign meetings. Baker said it was because Kristol leaked everything to the press. Quayle (fed this bilge no doubt by Kristol) says that it is because Baker was intimidated by Kristol's intellect and leadership.

I am not making that up. It is in black and white right here in my house, because I own the book. Now, do you really think that Baker was intimidated by Bill Kristol, who was even more of a punk 10 years ago? And do you think that the person who stood eyeball to eyeball with Saddam Hussein and led the Florida Recount Battle would be intimidated by that possum person? Har!

And, my point is this: Kristol is always hung around our necks as a conservative (but who conveniently bashes the administration or pushes for destructive policies at every turn). I would prefer that he be discredited as a commentator, and we get someone on those shows who supports the administration at least 60% of the time.

You see, It works like this!!!! If my thoughts on how a business is run or how I could help a company improve it's public image and Enron would like my advice along with a few other brilliant minds, Ken Lay hires me as a consultant and I sit on some hokey advisory board and collect whatever fee I'm worth to him. But there is absolutely nothing illegal about that. When NIKE wants to promote NIKE products, they have Tiger Woods represent them, NIKE wouldn't hire Woody Allen would they?. Enron hired Kristol for the same way NIKE hired Tiger Woods. What it comes down to is CAPITALISM.

Democrats do not understand Capitalism, they understand and identify with Socialism. What the RATS are doing is attacking capitalism, but unfortunately most people can't see this.

Why *Demrongate*?

Huge Enron loans expose taxpayers: Ex-Im Bank, OPIC backed projects to tune of $1.7 billion

A 100% Democrat production. 11 trade trips for Enron execs to set up deals under Clinton. Bush only has had one trade trip but no Enron execs were invited.
