"Among the featured speakers: Larry Kudlow and Kenneth "Kenny Boy" Lay." Excerpt from the article, FRIENDS OF ENRON LAUNCH VICIOUS AD ATTACK ON DASCHLE "Kenny Boy"'s Buddies Begin Terror Air War Message: "Don't Mess With Texas MWO SPECIAL REPORT " Message 16973331 ....................................................................................................... Note: Lawrence Kudlow is mentioned in op-ed piece by Paul Krugman: "Compare this with the board member Lawrence Kudlow, a commentator for National Review and CNBC. He wrote vehemently in favor of the Cheney energy plan - and has called this the "Clinton-Levitt recession," blaming Arthur Levitt, the former Securities and Exchange Commission chairman, who tried to fight the accounting laxity that made Enron possible.)"

Hi Mephisto, On the other hand, you have a populist like Jim Hightower who has also attacked Tom Daschle recently. Check out "Tom Goes Awhoring" from January 21, in the Archives. I trust Hightower's facts, and this bit of help for Barrick is actually very disappointing to me. It just points up that the Republicans and Democrats are, as Gore Vidal says, merely the right and left wings of the Corporate Party. The people, as William Greider describes us, have no representation in Washington. And the people, as Arthur Leavitt said upon leaving Washington, have no friends at the SEC. webactive.com I think today's Hightower commetary is quite good as well. And it points the finger in the Enron case where it ought to be pointed, tune in for his views..... -Ray
