Martha prosecution might light a fire under other charges
Wall Street Journal apparently reported yesterday at least two other cases where impropriety was treated with kid gloves
they each differed from Martha My Dear, in that they all admitted their transgressions and cooperated with some degree of honesty

I believe Martha got slammed for lying at the start, and continuing to lie and deceive from then on, in arrogant style
I have always found her obnoxious, and dont feel sorry for her
she is a supercilious ass who deserves whatever comes

but compared to others, she is a lightweight criminal
I think the delay with many other cases, such as Enron and WorldCom, has to do with attempting to force some substantive plea bargaining
Martha only had 1-2 other players
Enron has a multitude of players

MSO stock share price certainly shows serious leveraged asymmetric damage on a scale equivalent to the World Trade Center attack
in order to save $60k, she has lost $100-150 million
my figures are rough, and pulled ex anus

deep down, I believe Bushy has ordered lax prosecution of anyone high-up in Enron
like the Iraqi WMD issue, it might come back in his face
