Bush is guilty of insider trading. Just look at the facts. He got the info about the poor quarterly results as a member of the board, then sold his stock before the public found out. That's insider trading in a nhutshell. No brain surgeon needed to figure that out. Why wasn't he arrested or even seriously investigated? Because his father was president and GW told the SEC "I sent the filing, you must've lost it" (see article I posted for details) and who in the SEC's going to call the prez's son a liar? Number two, by the time CLinton got in, Bush was running for governor of Texas. It's not easy to bust the governor of Texas. Plus, CLinton was reaching out to conservatives, to a fault sometimes. Remember how many Repubs Clinton appointed? Bush has nothing but rightwingers in his regime. Clinton also went too easy on white collar crooks. Not because he was in any way associated with them, just because he wanted to appear "pro business". The rightwing often sees "pro business" as letting businessmen cheat and get away with it. Certainly it does in this administration. All this needs to change. Bush should have been arrested when his father was president, as was the law.
