A Sad Day In Texas
What a sting opportunity this would have been. Just bring in the wagon, round em all up and whisk them all off to Leavenworth. Sadly the police were otherwise detained.

Former President George Bush and his wife, Barbara, were among the mourners Wednesday at the funeral of Enron Corp. founder Kenneth Lay.

Among the other mourners at the downtown Houston church Lay attended for 12 years were former Secretary of State James A. Baker III, Houston Astros owner Drayton McLane Jr., heart surgeon Denton Cooley and Lay's criminal lawyer, Mike Ramsey.

Former Houston Mayor Bob Lanier, 80, collapsed at the funeral shortly after arriving and was taken by ambulance.

3. Who Will Pay ..
What I wonder is who will get stuck paying for the armed guards that will have to be posted around the gravesite 24/7. Should that be a federal or state responsibility. Perhaps they could plant him in the back yard of the Bush Family mansion in Kennybunkport to help defer costs.

4. Yeah.
God knows how many ex-employees would like to relieve themselves on the old bastard once he's under.
