Bush Energy Bill Gives Millions to Former Enron Execs

This is truly unbelievable. Public Citizen has discovered a provision buried in President Bush's energy bill "that provides hundreds of millions of dollars worth of federal loan guarantees for a power project apparently to be built by four former Enron executives." In fact, "one of the former executives is Thomas White, former head of Enron’s retail and energy trading in California during the energy crisis who later served as President Bush’s Secretary of the Army." See the full report here.http://www.citizen.org/pressroom/release.cfm?ID=1960

2. You seem surprised elehhhhna !
Really, nothing this bunch does surprises me anymore. In fact, I would be shocked if the energy bill DID NOT contain big piles of cash for the oily people. The more they get away with, the more brazen they become. And, their greed knows NO bounds.

9. I hope the M$M makes a mention of this. The people deserve to know.
And if they still don't care afterwards, then we as a country get what we deserve.

17. If our generation doesn't send this lot to jail, we will be known as the
poorest generation. The generation that took a fortune and through it all away. On people like the bushes and the cheneys and the lays.

Disgusting. :kick:
