There is no evidence to date that the Bush administration had anymore information about Enron's downward spiral than anyone else did, including the stock-holders! Anyone who can read the financial pages could see that the spiral began months ago. It is the responsibility of investors to police their own investments, not the federal government. If, Bennett, you had stock in Enron and didn't dump it in time to at least recover your investment, that is your fault not the feds!

On the Butler interview: IF Butler's charges are true, Daschle and crew would be on the Bush administration like flies on "you-know-what." Why haven't they been? Dont' you find that interesting, Bennett? If they could hang something like this on Bush, don't you think they would? You don't suppose Butler was trying to sell a book, do you?

Butler admits, himself, they are only allegations and not proven facts. Yet you post this message expecting that everybody is going to go ape over some alleged action of the Bush administration. Big deal. No one needs to manufacture or emphasize allegations about the Bush administration in order to garner criticism on the Mudcat. Just the fact that the Bush administration is running the country is enough for the majority.
