"Heck, why not start a Clintron death cemetary?"

Sadly; as soon as I became aware of Baxter's suicide, my first thought was "yeah right." My second was, "wonder what his relationship was to Clinton." A lot of people would say that's overreacting and maybe it is, or maybe it is just the result of 8 years of conditioning to believe the worst and to see the Clinton signature emblazoned on every untimely and convenient death. It sounds like having a conscience was the "cause of death," regardless of who pulled the trigger.

clintron(sorry I still can't capitalize it even when it's the first word in the sentence) is a fitting and apt description.

The more I research into Enron's 3,500+ subsidiaries, partnerships, and affilliates, the more that is true. While my primary focus has been the contributions of the "subs" a surprising number of FOB's(Friends of bill) and FOH's(Friends of hillary) are popping up.

Another interesting thing I have turned up is that while on the surface Enron Corp's donations appear to have a Republican slant(62-38%), they are below the norms, about half of the companies that supported Republicans did so at 100% levels, and most of the other half were at 90% or better. The Enron subs tend to support the Rat's more heavily the further removed from the Enron name you get. Even the Rat infested movie/TV and the computer electronics industries gave 40% to Republicans.

If you're interested in resarching this kind of thing(or if you'd like to help) Opensecrets.org is an excellent resource, and it also will affect(or should) your buying habits. In area's where I have no brand preference, if I know that the company donates or supports the Rats, they don't get my bucks, as they don't deserve them. The best way to defeat the Rats is to not fund them, or their supporters. With resources like Opensecrets, ignorance is no excuse.
