didn't respond to the posting about their influence What evidence do you have of Democratic influence peddling with Global Crossing? All I have seen are innuendos and not a scintilla of impropriety. Bush, however, makes Global Crossing a family charity, what's up with that? news.com.com Global Crossing, ... , paid former U.S. President George Bush in stock options now worth about $14.4 million for giving a speech to the company's customers, TP

What about Global Crossing? This was an event that took place back in 1999....not exactly a case of the CEO telling the employees to buy stock a few days before filing bankruptcy. For a guy to invest and sell out and then 3 years later the company goes bust! But since you want to bring up such issues...care to explain why Brother Neil Bush is hidden away in the closet...ever hear of Silverado Savings....Naaaah! That is why you Repub's keep those closets handy and with strong locks to keep the secret ins. And again since your bring up Global Crossing, want to talk about a fellow "borrowing" $600,000 and then using the governments money and taxpayers money to turn his "borrowed" investment into $14M. And this fellow being the main guy who wants the government to stop wasting money .....Ever heard of a fellow named George "Shrub" Bush, who's previous business experience up to this "sweet heart" deal was bankrupting an oil company that he owned and fritted away investor's money that had invested because of his father's connections. Sure let's talk about Global Crossing, and Silverado Savings, and Texas Ranger's Baseball Team, Enron, and Harken Oil. Gee! By my count that is Global Crossing (1) vs THREE(3) Bushs.
