A little crow eating update for all those defends of Kenny Boy Lay...Bush's now forgotten best bud. 1) For those defenders of Lay and their contention that he was "buying" stock during the meltdown, now that we know the "TRUTH" as to what he was doing....you guys have to come up with a new story to defend this sleeze bag. 2) This evil conspiracy to over TAX corporate America and that wonderful company Enron...now we know the sleeze brigade was dutifully avoiding paying any taxes so the honest people were having to take up the slack. 3) Truly amazing that little "BRO" Jeb Bush hasn't seen a newspaper or TV news over the past few weeks. Little Bro comes to Houston last night for a $500 a person fund raiser. And just who hosted this gala event for the commmon folks....hint!..hint!...the company who he used to be President of just hosed the Florida state employee pension plan for a cool $300 million dollar lose. Now attack with the usual righteous hypocrisy...doing the work of your god is tough work these days when you have to defend those wonderful sleeze bags that have so much empathy for the working folks. Isn't is sad that Kenny Boy has on the market in Colorado several houses and some land for a cool total of about $16 million dollars. Gee! This evil government that is so difficult for corporate America to compete in has by some miracle allowed Kenny Boy to accumulate $16 million dollars of real estate in Colorado in addition to his palatial abode in Houston, and then allowed him to run a company that didn't pay income tax "apparently" because it didn't make any profits but then created a stock that was worth enough for him and 28 other to sell for over $1 Billion dollars. I'm thinking that maybe that is what this country needs...a corporate America that is unfettered by government regulation and tax obligation...and then we can let those foreign taxi drivers pay for everything with them being taxed out the kazoo. Freeing up the likes of Kenny Boy and his cronies time of trying to avoid tax payments, this would allow them the time to enjoy that $1 billion dollars they have banked while the lowly workers have nothing left for their retirement.
