Your error is assuming that Democrats are interested in corporate fraud, as opposed to libeling Republicans. That means you are forgetting that fraud is congenital for Democrats...

<<I am crossing the Republican party line here, but I think it is really chickenshit that Democrats won't admit that stock fraud was rampant during the Clinton administration.>> It's beyond contention that this was going on before Bush was President (unless we're talking about his dad...). What i find amazing is how easily Bush supporters overlook the fact that our new sheriff in town was the old sheriff in Texas. He was close politically and personally with Ken Lay while governor, gave Lay great access to the White House transition, let him help pick the head of the FERC, and Bush appointed many Enron execs to his administration. So it would seem that either Bush was in on it with Lay or possibly just oblivious, inattentive and easily duped. None of these are what you'd call good qualities in a sheriff. Steve
