Joe Lieberman can help a great deal by putting Rubin on the stand...
And no, i am not against wealth. I actually love it since it is very condusive to life (not the only thing but it goes very very far). What i am against is people like Garry fleecing people left right and center, and then going along with a 30 million dollar redecoration (as if a palace ...and in essence it is a palace) needs it, when his ex-employees are asking for 32 mil. It seems to me to be like a smack to the face for those poor souls! He seems to be mocking them ....telling them implicitly that he would rather spend that money on redecorating something that does not need decoration than give it to them for the sustainace of themselves and their families. His ex-employees who he fleeced out of a job, income and future!
would also help avoid tax hikes
Lieberman needs to follow Ashcroft's example and recuse himself from these hearings. Over the past 6 years Lieberman has received, according to one reporting group $59,296 from Citigroup, but another group says the amount is $112,546. In 2000 Enron contributed $25,000 to a group that Lieberman founded, the New Democratic Network. Following Enron's lead, Citigroup contributed $100,000 to Joe's little group in 2001 and Arthur Andersen contributed $20,000 to them in 2001.
