4. He'll never spend a day in prison
not even in one of those country club prisons they have for white collar thieves who hurt millions of people.

First, the whole thing is going to be hard to prove. If he goes to trial, it will take months, maybe years. He may die of old age before the trial concludes. They'll have to prove he really did know what was going on, something they'll need Fastow and Skilling to roll over on, which means one of them might walk.

Second, his best buddy is still in the White House, and still holds presidential pardon power. I hate seeing these scumbags get indicted while Bush still holds that power. I fully expect him to use it.

I saw that perp walk on NBC. He looked like he knew it was just theater for the rubes.

8. When Bush loses in NOvember, can he pardon Lay even
if the trial isn't done? Or does the trial have to be underway? What are the rules?

11. Whatever the rules are, you can bet
that Bush will find a way to let him off. Regardless of the outcome of Nov. 2.

10. Don't get excited...it is what they want
This frog march is not coincidental. It is carefully timed and orchestrated, like everything else BushCo does...even Kenny-Boy's whining little declaration that his friendship with Bush hurt him (hmmm...wait a minute...W said he barely knew "Mr. Lay." One of them is lying again!).

They want you to be distracted and pay attention to Kenny Boy, as it shows how tough on corporate crime Bush is, and how he's smokin' out the evil doers. No, wait...that's OBL...he's coming during the dem convention.

12. I hope that man who lost
1.6 million dollars of his pension who was on Paula Zahn last night got to see this. Small consolation.
