Enron Surprise

This is an interesting bit of information that you don't hear much about in the media.

1. Enron's chairman did meet with the president and the vice president in the Oval Office.

2. Enron gave $420,000 to the president's party over three years.

3. It donated $100,000 to the president's inauguration festivities.

4. The Enron chairman stayed at the White House 11 times.

5. The corporation had access to the administration at its highest levels and even enlisted the Commerce and State Departments to grease deals for it.

6. The taxpayer-supported Export-Import Bank subsidized Enron for more than $600! million in just one transaction. Scandalous!!

7. BUT...the president under whom all this happened WAS NOT George W. Bush.

8. SURPRISE ...  It was Bill Clinton!

Gotta love those cigars.
