It looks like he's trying to not go to far but the public wants to see these ceo's slapped and slapped hard. Those buzzard-sucking ceo's deserve to rot in jail! I'm conservative and for the free enterprise system and generally think most liberals get in the way when it comes to business. But this is different. People's lives and livelihood have been, in some cases, devastated. Don't anyone squawk to me about how those employees who put too much money into to their company's stock had it coming because they did not diversify. One can argue that in another setting. When you have phony ceo's touting their stock at employee meetings and saying the stock's undervalued and strongly suggesting to employees that they need to buy as much as they can of company stock in their 401k's (with overtones of loyalty in the mix), all the while knowing that the company was imploding and who were selling their own stock big time, that's plain fraud, deceit with intent, and covering their own backsides in the meantime. These worthless pieces of shit should be required to sell everything they own and put it into an employee fund. Let them feel what it's like to have nothing when one is unable to retire as they had planned just because some greedy, unethical idiots were playing fast and loose with peoples lives while getting rich. Put those sumbitches in jail and let them rot. Take all their money and give it back to the workers. Why is this even an issue for Bush? If he's that stupid so as to not have come out right at the beginning of this horsecrap and put the hammer down on these low-life's, he is no different from Clinton, who had to take polls to decide what the right thing to do was. Bush is too little to late in my view. HT
