It's no coincidence that the Dems quickly stopped trying to tie Enron with Bush.

HAHAHAHAHAHA! No wonder the Dems let this one go. And yet, all the corporate problems are Bush's fault (according to Al Bore). Heh.

Well now we know why LIEberman was out front on the pledge -- this was about to break! Another reason why DemocRATS cannot be trusted to head Committees of the Senate!

The best part of the list is the top entry: Citi.

Not only were they up to their 'nads in Enron, they were the investment banker to WorldCon, where seemingly sub-par "due diligence" was done on more than $1 billion in bonds.
