Bush's Insider Connections Preceded Huge Profit On Stock Deal

Bush's Insider Trading

http://www.truthout.org/docs_04/030904A.shtml

Truthout:Editors Note: Martha Stewart may be heading to prison because she sold stock after learning that a company was failing for a reason that was out of her and other company officials control. Martha Stewarts Company was playing by the rules, a product they invested a lot of money in failed to be certified as safe by the Government so they knew the stock would fall. If the following allegations are true, George Bush's profit was due to underhanded accounting practices inflating the value of the stock, before selling at a huge profit. Who should be in jail? Martha Stewart for selling before her stock tanked for legitimate reasons? Or George Bush for profiting from selling stock that's value was inflated by Enron style accounting practices?   --smg

It has been widely reported that Texas Gov. George W. Bush made money over the years with a little help from his friends. But new details show that he served on an energy corporation's board and was able to realize a huge profit by selling his stock in the corporation because an accounting sleight-of-hand concealed it was losing large sums of money. Shortly after he sold, the stock price plummeted. That profit helped make him a multimillionaire.
  
The year 1986 was very good for George W. Bush.
