Abramoff and Lay: Two Bush "Pioneer" Level Contributors

[gulliver]

Hey, that's two, count'em, two of Bush's top level "Pioneer" contributors now at the center of world class corruption and fraud scandals. I have an idea. Let's just investigate all Bush's Pioneers under RICO.

And the obvious question: What would the Republicans have done if even one of these guys were big Clinton supporters?

1. I went there and put the last one on the list into google

along with Jack Abramoff..George C. Zoley + Jack Abramoff.

The first two entries that came up gave me error pages when I clicked on them. Here are the urls.

2. My (maybe no so weird) tinfoil Enron theory.

For years, I've speculated that Enron was little more than a Bush Crime Family money laundering scheme. Enron didn't do anything except push money around and use that money to get BushCo into office.

Once BushCo stole the White House, presto... Enron was no longer needed. Some people had to fall to provide the 'good legal system' cover.

Same thing with Abramoff. Noticing patterns does not mean 'conspiracy theory.'

3. They both deserve the death penalty

I support the death penalty--by hanging--for white collar corporate crime.

He's no angel either.

5. I'll bet there are a bunch.

I was kind of kidding when I said they should be investigated under RICO, but maybe it would be worthwhile. I like your idea of looking for connections between Abramoff and other Pioneers.

6. The Fact Is, Mr. Gulliver

Every person who contributed at that level is a crook; the rest just have not bee caught out openly yet....
