2. If only we went after really BIG crooks. So much easier to catch a crack runner?

They don't have million dollar lawyers.

9. And our government seems to be wondering why they are being led around

by the nose...I think. I'm still not warm and fuzzy on our cozy friends in the mega-super-ultra big to big as a matter of fact to fail department. I guess BP is one of those too.

I'mmmmm sorry...B O P.

11. Enron was the proof-of-concept for the new model

and the Cheney Energy Task Force was where the model was implemented in full by all participants. I would be willing to be that there were reps from both BP and Haliburton at those meetings.
