Excerpts from the ENRON tapes. These bastards are unbelievable!

[keithyboy]

"What we need to do is to help in the cause of, ah, downfall of California," says an Enron employee in new tapes aired by CBS. One employee tells another that "It's called lies. It's all how well you can weave these lies together," drawing the response, "I feel like I'm being corrupted now." "No," says the first employee, "this is marketing." Plus: Can David Mamet's characters compete with Enron's?

1. Isn't that treason?

Wouldn't it be great to see them all swinging from gallows?

3. If there is a Hell,

it's not for people who didn't go to church on Sundays, it's reserved for people like this, who profit from and delight in the misery of others.

They should hang.

6. It's definitely fascism.

2. The late Bill Hicks said

"If you're in advertising and marking, kill yourself now"
This is evil, EVIL stuff and I hope they pay big.

[Guaranteed]

5. My God, that's fucking genius.

I'm considering changing my six-month-old sig line.

4. Remember when Gray Davis was

BEGGING for help from Bush in the spring of 2001 regarding the energy pricing? Bush said he would have NO part of it...it was just part of the free market system. Now, in light of this....Davis was ousted for INCOMPETENCE and Arnold the Repub takes his place?? Damn, i wish we had a justice department we could trust to prosecute not just the Enron folks but follow their chain of influence back into the lap of the Bush Admin.

7. This is the same shit Wall St pulled on Allende.

[Pachamama]

8. Yeah, & to investigate why Schwarzenegger was meeting back in 2000

..with Ken Lay and Enron folks...He wan't in politics then and he has since refused ala Cheney style to answer questions about those meetings...

You see, we had our own Republican Coup here in CA and folks still haven't figured that out....

[anelson]

10. I don't understand why so many people here in the US

do not question what they see and hear. It is scary when you consider what has happened to CA could happen elsewhere...

[TrustingDog]

12. The Stepford Wives...

movie is due soon... I think it should be retitled to the Stepford Patriots.

[AP]

13. or can't see something so obvious.

I didn't need to see these memos to know that this is what happened. (You simply had to know what the US did to Chile and what happened in Venezuela to understand what was happening to Davis in CA.)

And there were so many DU'ers who said we should give Arnold a chance and didn't want to believe that the media were whoring it up for him and that the whole recall was bullshit brought to CA by huge, too-powerful corporations.

9. Sadly,it doesn't matter to most voters

California is, well, Clalifornia, It may as well be a foreign country to most people. Most people just won't care, as it does not directly affect them.

11. unfreakingreal! eom

[crossroads]

14. Be very afraid people, very afraid!

This is sick...

15. This is conspiracy and treason!

It sounds like they're trying to take down a state! My God!
