No that one fails the WTF test. In that Enron got huge during the Clinton administration, went on fine for years without the Clinton FTC and SEC caring. Completely ignored their New York auditors. And now that the Bush administration version of the authorities found massive impropriety all the yahoo's are blaiming Bush. All the crimes were done on somebody else's watch, they actually got CAUGHT on Bush's watch by Bush's people, and yet it's Bush's fault... WTF?!

Although I suppose there is a little brilliant idiocy in the idea that these guys (supposedly with Bush's help, or at least the help of his good friends) would be smart enough to cook the books for years, but dumb enough to not pay of the auditors to look the other way. Which does bring into question just how much this was a conspiracy involving lots of members of the Bush Cabinet and how much it was just a few business leaders getting stupid.

And of course Bush steps forward to block the Congress from eyeballing anything that might harm Clinton's rep any further (or exact any justice for the people). And of course, Enron was possibly Bush's largest contributor in his quest for Governorship in Texas. and of course ... and of course ... and of course.

How many times are these 'in-bed-together-creeps' gonna pull the wool over your eyes and flat out lie to you before you say 'wait a danged minute, here'?

Go find the side by side photos of Osama and the taped Osama. They're on the web. Take a good look at them and then THINK, for the love of Pete!

BTW ... I am aware that there's a 't' on the end of brilliant. My fingers aren't awake yet.

I hope you don't hold your breath while you wait for definitive answers about Enron OR the truth of the 'Osama tape'. They're playing pro-league dodge ball, where the rules can change in the middle of a play.

My point is, that if you're lied to once, by someone ... and then twice ... and then again. How long will it be before you begin to doubt that someone?
