First, you can't really believe that this company was so big that that kind of info was kept from being passed around? Secondly, he was on a committee to determine what could hurt share value....you don't think potential losses would not have been an issue important to this committee of two? The information had not been available to anyone for that long. It certainly would have gotten around the company in time, but there is no evidence that Bush had the information at the time of the sale. That's why these things are hard to prove. Publicly, no one can say for sure that Martha Stewart had insider info. However, privately, most believe she did and used it to her advantage, Furthermore, its very likely she will get away with it. Just as dubya got away with a similarly suspicious transaction as well. And his father as President had appointed the Director of the SEC. Don't beat around the bush (no pun intended). Are you or are you not accusing the director at the time of quashing an investigation for political reasons? Oh, give me a break. Your confreres accuse Dems of every despicable act in the book and you think that a Bush Sr. appointee is above all that. You may be that naive but I am not. Why do you think these slime CEOs of corporations think they can get away with this bushit? They've learned over time how the good ole boy network works. ted
