Bush & Cheney said it was ok with them.

Big Dick Cheney cared.

Opinions: ART BUCHWALD: Enron's golden parachutes

(December 16, 2001 11:45 a.m. EST) - I found Oyster, a pink-slipped Enron employee, sitting on his porch with a rifle on his lap. I asked him if he was waiting for terrorists to attack.

He said, "No, I'm waiting for Enron executives to drop out of the sky in their golden parachutes. They are more dangerous than terrorists."

"How can you say that?"

"The company has gone into bankruptcy. The executives sold their inflated stock, knowing the company would soon run out of cash. But they wouldn't let the employees of the company unload their shares. They also paid themselves $55 million dollars in bonuses and used up our pension funds to gratify themselves. They issued us parachutes that wouldn't open. The guys with the golden parachutes committed war crimes against their own people. If I had my way, I'd try them all in a military tribunal then shoot them."

He cleaned his gun to make sure it was still working.

"How do you know they will land on your property?"
