The Fix is ON: With Pitt already in place, how nice that the following has taken place: "Investigator Who Cleared Bush Gets WorldCom Job Thursday, 4 July 2002, 3:07 pm Article: Alastair Thompson A former Securities and Exchange Commission chairman appointed court monitor of WorldCom Inc. on Wednesday was previously responsible for clearing U.S. President George W. Bush of insider trading concerning his involvement in Harken Energy during the lead up to the 1991 Gulf War. Bush’s involvement in Harken Energy in 1990 during the presidency of his father resulted just a wrist slapping for George Junior. George Bush had failed to file share sales declarations to the SEC for eight months during a period when his shares tanked. The 1990 investigation into Harken has been receiving considerable coverage in US media in recent days. Interestingly few of the media covering the matter however have yet made the connection between Harken Energy and the father of the World's Most Wanted Terrorist (For more detail see... The GW Bush - Osama Bin Laden Connection) And now it seems more than ironic that a man appointed by George Bush Senior as the SEC chairman, and who cleared George Bush of any impropriety over Harken (in spite of considerable evidence to the contrary) has now been appointed to oversee the largest corporate fraud in US history. U.S. District Judge Jed Rakoff in Manhattan selected Richard Breeden, who headed the SEC from 1989-1993, to act as the court-appointed monitor in the SEC's civil fraud suit against WorldCom. WorldCom is fighting bankruptcy after announcing last week that it improperly accounted for nearly (NZD)$8 billion in expenses. The appointment appears to beg some questions regarding what standards will be followed during Breeden's WorldCom investigation. Already the pressure has been coming on the President over Harken - and the connection to WorldCom has not yet been made by major US media.
