Re: "But Enron is not about how big business screws the worker."

Uh, yes it is. That's why C-SPAN filmed the screwed workers when they testified before Congress. Because it's a big story of a big corporation with big ties to the Republican Party and the Bush presidency screwing the common working man.

The Fat Cats made millions and millions and millions of dollars. Some of the rank and file saw their retirement accounts shrink by 99 percent.

The management-politics part of the scandal is yet to fully flower. When we know the particulars of who specifically was involved in these Enron spin-off corporations, then the story will once again lead the NBC Nightly News.

Bush and Lay were "intimate" with each other (but not in a sexual sense). The recently released correspondence between the two clearly indicates such.

If the Democrats are smart, they will continue to hammer away at the fact that Georgie and Kenny Boy were very good friends.

Bottom line: No matter how you try to spin this story, it remains a microcosm of Big Business corruption in America today ... and there will be other Enrons as well.
