Bush and his club won't do much about Enron but Ashcroft has arrested 12 prostitutes!
Mephisto.

"Mr. Bush keeps saying all the right things. He is "deeply concerned." He will "hold people
accountable." But words, like stocks, lose value when nothing backs them up. It is now more
than six months since the president promised "a lot of government inquiry into
Enron." Since then, Playboy has done a better job of exposing the women of
Enron than the Bush administration has done at exposing
its men. Just as the Justice Department rounded up some 1,000 alleged
Sept. 11 suspects and failed to indict a single one of them
for terrorist activity, so it has made a big show of its shaky Andersen
conviction while failing to indict a single Enron executive or
individual Andersen accountant. (Not that all the law-enforcement
news is downbeat: last month John Ashcroft's minions held a
press conference to boast that a 13-month investigation had led
to the arrest of 12 prostitutes in New Orleans.)" --FRANK RICH
