Joe Conason's Journal

If you're compiling a list of public figures even
less popular in California than Gray Davis, one name is likely to top it:
former Enron chairman Kenneth "Kenny Boy" Lay. Voters in the Golden
State are behaving like sheep these days, but even the dimmest of them can
probably remember how Enron and the other corporate vultures descended on
them during the electricity "crisis" of 2001.
What California voters may no longer remember, however, is that after the
third wave of rolling blackouts hit their state, Kenny Boy quietly
summoned a select group to the Beverly Hills Hotel on May 11, 2001. And they
may also have forgotten that one of the prominent Republicans who showed up
at Lay's request was Arnold Schwarzenegger... |

Enron Banks Dodge a Bullet
Chase and Citi got off easy with a fine—at least for now.
FORTUNE - Monday, August 11, 2003 -By Bethany McLean and
Peter Elkind
When it comes to Enron, there's nothing
swift or sure about justice. It's been almost 21 months since Enron
declared bankruptcy. Amid ongoing investigations by the Justice Department
and the SEC, more than a dozen former Enron employees have been indicted but
none has gone to jail yet, and neither Ken Lay nor Jeff Skilling has
been charged with any crime.... |
California will provide lessons for all
The Coloradoan - 8-11-03
Depending on your point of view, Democratic Gov.
Davis either mismanaged California's energy crisis and spent the state into
a huge budget deficit or was handed the impossible task of cleaning up an
energy mess made by Enron (and President Bush's buddy Ken Lay) and a
budget mess left over from Davis' Republican predecessor, Pete Wilson... |
He's everywhere,
he's everywhere. Except in jail.
Ken Lay's top
connection is George W. and now we find out Ahnold attended an elite meeting,
about the California energy crisis, headed by the same Ken Lay of Enron.
Why was Ahnold invited ? To explain the benefits of how muscle building
leads to Hollywood fame? Or how a republican can have a happy marriage with a
democrat? Ahnold is no muscle head.

is supporting Arnold but a lot of Republicans are not, because he is actually

Three Little Words: Fox News Sues

Fox sues Franken over 'fair and balanced'
NEW YORK (AP) -- Fox News Channel has sued liberal humorist
Al Franken and the
Penguin Group to stop them from using the phrase "fair and balanced" in the

The unrighteous
right changed the cultural definition of the word liberal to mean
something evil--and now Fox News is suing Franken for using an everyday
phrase? Aren't these the same unrighteous right that constantly whine
about frivolous lawsuits?
AHNC is going to
use the phrase FAIR & BALANCED as often as it can. Maybe FOX will come
aknockin' on my door?
Is the 1st
Amendment to the Constitution still in effect? Or did I miss something?

disclosure is dangerous
SEATTLE POST-INTELLIGENCER EDITORIAL BOARD
There's a cancer somewhere in the Bush administration. Two officials
revealed national security information to embarrass or scare critics of the
administration's mishandling of Iraqi intelligence.
Columnist Robert Novak wrote recently that the wife of former Ambassador
Joseph Wilson -- the man who blew the whistle on the Niger uranium fraud --
is a Central Intelligence Agency operative, specializing in weapons of mass
destruction. Novak attributed his information to two senior administration
officials. Time magazine has said officials provided similar information....
