Now Jerry, if I went and bumped myself off

wife?

You and your fellow demagogues keep linking Bush to Enron but you have absolutely nothing to go on but wet dreams. Get a life. There is nothing there! No one can even invent a crime to accuse him of, let alone offer any proof.

Just because the last Democrat President was a sleeze doesn't mean it's SOP for all Presidents. Hell, Clinton raised more money renting out the Lincoln bedroom than Bush ever accepted from Enron. I know you don't believe it Smokey, but there are honest people in the world.

Don't worry about me, there are plenty of leftests out there to needle. Someone has to challenge their stupidity.

Once again, you are getting your news from biased and untrustworthy Conservative news sources like Newsmax. Lieberman accepted $2,500 from Enron... not $250,000.

He received $2,000 from Enron in his 1994 race and $11,500 over the years from Arthur Andersen, the auditing firm accused of concealing Enron's true condition. The New Democrats Network, a group he co-founded, has received $25,000 from Enron. His friend, adviser and former chief of staff, Michael Lewan, received $40,000 in consulting fees from Enron last year and arranged three meetings between Enron officials and Lieberman aides

Well, not to be argumentative, but if that's what you meant, then that's what you should have said in the first place.

Again, not to be argumentative, but that only adds up to $78,500. That's still a lot of money, but not even half of $250,000.

Furthermore, I would take the $40,000 to Lewan off the table since that was salary for work he did.

Besides, I'm not saying there is anything illegal with it. Just that whatever your wet dreams are telling you about Bush also applies to your guys. Until someone can show a quid pro quo it's no more than business as usual.

7 out of 10 believe the accounting practices
which led to the Enron colapse are widespread
in corporate america. (Time-CNN)

Looks like the public agrees with me Jerry,
maybe you outta take that 38 to your head
especially in light of your newfound love of
polls.

Regarding the poll, what do you expect when every newspaper and TV network (excluding FOX) in the country is trying to torpedo Bush with unfounded accusations and rumors? Most Americans actually believe everything they read and hear from our liberal biased press. Americans have always loved conspiracy theories....so what? A lot of people still believe Elvis is alive, that the moon landings were a hoax and that there are extraterrestials living among us. As I recall 67% believed Clinton when he said "I did not have sex with that woman", because the press believed him. The majority of people also said they wouldn't want Clinton as their neighbor and wouldn't let them date their daughter, but they still voted for him.

Actions speak louder than words. Bush's 85% approval is based on his actions. His actions and the truth will ultimately overcome the demagoguery of our left leaning press which is salivating over the imagined ruin of GW.

There are bad cops and bad Priests too. Are you suggesting an overhaul of police procedures and dismantling the Catholic church? Being on welfare is an "accepted practice" but some people abuse it through fraud. Is welfare fraud "widespread" just because it exists at all?

Besides, how many of the 7 out of 10 know didly squwat about "accounting practices" in the first place?

"In the USA Today/CNN/Gallup survey, 29 percent said Bush believed he would owe Enron executives special policy treatment in return for campaign contributions; 55 percent believe congressional Democrats felt that way."
