The LA Times verified and recently published nearly all of this article. But we're not to post from the LA Times, so here's the parent article.

Wow, that's some payoff Bush gave them: The biggest bankruptcy in American history, with a better-than-even chance that a number of those execs are going to end up in jail.

President Bush's name is George W.Bush.He is NOT a junior! I guess Bush bashers will believe anything.The problem is what did Enron,itself do and NOT who received contributions because if we go down that path,it's going to lead straight to Clinton and Company!

I like your humor. It's low keyed, and you've got to be aware, but it's relevent humor these days.

They'll probably get to go to the same Country Club Prison they send Clinton 1&2 to. :-)

Who is George W. Bush Jr.?

All the little weasels from serpenthead Carville to McCauliff are pushing the Enron talking point. It's all they have.

You Really didn't read the Article, did you now? Seems the author covered that pretty well. But you did read the title, and since jr. was already Pres, and since there already was an "Energy Crisis" it's appropriately titled.

Maybe tomorrow you can read a bit more of it, huh? :-)

THE ONLY connection this proves is that Bush accepted campaign funds as did many other Republicans as well as democrats. That is not earth shattering. In order to run a campaign they must accept donations. And when someone is willing to donate and you are running for president you accept the funds. Anything beyond that is nothing but lies and garbage. You have no proof just rumors.

Interesting article , if it is accurate . I think it is interesting that it came from the Etherzone , in spite of the fact there are .... Shall we say , writers with dubious credential's ? FReegardless, Assuming it is true it should be simple enough to prove . I for 1 have a challenge with it , considering all known accounts to me President Bush is a man of integrity . I also agree with the lady above .

Innuendo. Just like that article you published from THE DAILY TEXAN, written by a 21-year old liberal at the University of Texas.

You're really draggin' your ass tryin' to tie Bush to a bankrupt company.

How did Bush's connections help Enron, exactly?

"Who is George W. Bush Jr.?"

It's kinda like "Clintoon" or "Bubba" or "Hitlery", you know, just a little mangling of the name to show that you're NOT a fan of that person.

Fair enough? I usually call Clinton "Slick" and Hillary "Witch" so jr. really isn't so bad now, is it?

Like the story them and the San Jose Mercury printed about how the CIA purposely fed dope to minorities . Again , If it happened , it is easily proved , but I think it's a lie .

It's a fairly wide open site, so that's why I made this note as reply #1 ---
