Did any of you hear the tapes of some enron meetings that were on the news? The execs talked about ways of artificially hiking oil prices on the US west coast. They were coming up with scams and laughing about how they'd boost profits while screwing the population. In one you here them talking about a wildfire that was threatening a pipeline or maybe already burning a pipeline. I missed that detail. They were literally sitting there saying how the raging wildfire was great and you could here one of them saying "Burn baby burn". People who heard these tapes first kept using the word "arrogance" in describing the enron execs. And yes the execs included Skilling and Lay. The US considers these kinds of people the leaders of our country and goes out of it's way to give them big green lights to do whatever they please. No wonder the world hates us.

an enron christmas video from a few years back shows
skilling and lay introducing papa bush as "an old family friend".
even then they were doing overt skits showing how they'd boost the estimates of things from one place to increase profits in another.

just good old texass funny stuff.

this is kind of interesting:

Like many magazines, The Washington Monthly often gets letters from eccentrics insisting that a cabal of powerful men secretly controls world events.
A recent story makes you understand why they might think that way.
According to The Wall Street Journal, Saudi Arabia's Binladen Group, the construction company owned by the family of Osama bin Laden (from whom Osama is estranged), has more than $2 million invested in a military contractor buy-out fund managed by the Carlyle Group.
Carlyle's chairman is ex-Secretary of Defense Frank Carlucci. Its senior counselor is former Secretary of State James Baker. The senior adviser to the firm's Asian Partners fund is former President George H.W. Bush.

How can America have a president that can't even string a sentence together?

which is exactly why cheney dropped out of yale before graduating.

cheney has bush's script-writer jumble up george's sentences so we can
know that
it's the vp with the brains and not dufus stumbling at the podium about jesus this and god that.
you never hear dick talking like that.
he's strictly a businessman who understood the profitability of politics.
one being an extension of the other.
toss in a dose of god and all our questions are answered.
but that's george's job...you know...preacher president.

you yanks can start bitching and moaning about your oil prices when they reach our level. You pay around 26p a litre, whilst we are currently paying around 83p a litre. 56 f*cking pence of that 83p goes to the government in duty and tax. So whilst you are all bathing in gas and filling up your 5 litre cherokee's whilst singlehandedly reducing the worlds oil reserves, us Brits are all in our 1.4litre shite wagons getting shafted by our c*nting government.
