1) How could he bail out Enron and survive politically? 2) He quickly put as much distance between Enron and himself as he could. 'Bye Ken, it was nice knowing ya' 3) the Democrats are almost as implicated as the Replubicans - but not nearly as much in terms of campaign support. 4) We'll see what comes out of the hearings

Rubin was called in after Sept 11 to teach the Bush administration how to pump up the stock market and the dollar. Gold was pushed back down to 273 and silver to 4 bucks after the bullion banks went under and left Goldman, JPM, Deutsche Bank and a bunch of insurance companies holding the bag.

The only reason precious metals are going up now is because its becoming increasingly more difficult to lie on economic data/corporate earnings and keep people in the stock market.

The U.S. account deficit and the wave of corporate defaults is forcing the hand on gold and silver. Bush doesn't have anything to do with it, he doesn't understand it.
