The Aspen Institute's new idea
By Allyn Harvey
July 3, 2005

At a mid-June press conference, Aspen Institute President Walter Isaacson opened his comments on the Institute's future with a reference to its past.

"We didn't really partake in the community much, and worse yet, we didn't benefit from being in the most interesting community in the United States," Isaacson said.

That was President Clinton's first vacation back in 1993...with Ken Lay of Enron fame.

He returned there circa 2001 with one of the Enron whistleblowers (a lady).

There are pictures of him golfing there with Ken Lay during various Summers.

Is that the group of libs who, along the lines of the DLC, were meeting as a think tank trying to propose concepts as to how to get out of the wilderness? Modelled after some conservative organization Gingrich used? (Heritage? in the early days)
