Hey, y'all!! Check this out...

"Global Crossings CEO Attempting to Bilk Shareholders by Re-Buying His Company (with Chi-Com assistance) fer Pennies on the Dollar!!"

"The rescue plan that Global Crossing presented when it announced it was seeking bankruptcy protection has also raised questions. Under the deal, two companies, Hutchison Whampoa (news/quote) of Hong Kong and Singapore Technologies Telemedia, would invest $750 million for a 79 percent stake in Global Crossing. Global Crossing's creditors would get 21 percent, shareholders nothing. Winnick never revealed to his own board or creditors that he and fellow company director Steven Green invested $25 million in a company called K1 Ventures, effectively controlled by another firm, Temasek Holdings, which in turn owns Singapore Technologies. Winnick and Green told The New York Times (news/quote) their investment was unrelated to Singapore Technologies' effort to buy Global Crossing."

Shocked; shocked I tell ya.

Bet if one looked closer into this Winnick character they'd likely find the clown's a registered 'Pubbie, too.
One with a cozy-tight, lucrative li'l repore' with ol' Terry McAuliff.
It's becoming increasingly obvious these miserable bloodsuckers are playing both sides againt the middle.
The scenario's about as pathetic as it gets.

I'd keep my eye on AT&T's Armstrong, too. While at Hughes, he was a key supporter of the technology transfers to China under the Clinton admin. And Legere, of Global Crossings, was AT&T's head honcho in the Far East at the same time.

For now, I just keep whistlin' past the graveyard.
