The Democrats' Web to Enron ... Some Questions
Neal Boortz
Thursday, Feb. 7, 2002David M. Walker is the general comptroller of the GAO and is suing Vice President Dick Cheney to get notes, minutes and tons of other information from Cheney's energy policy meetings last year.
Did you know that Henry Waxman and John Dingall first demanded that Walker get this information on April 19 of last year months before Enron was even an issue?
Did you know that David Walker was appointed to the GAO by the Clinton administration?
Did you know that before Clinton moved him to the GAO in 1998, Walker held the job of "Global Managing Director of Human Capital Services Practice" at Arthur Andersen, Enron's auditor and financial adviser?
Did you know that Walker still served on the board of Arthur Andersen until last month?
Have you ever heard any media outlet mention any possible legitimate reasons for Enron's failure, e.g., the sudden drop in energy prices in California last year or Enron's loss of a $3 billion power plant in India (a deal that was carefully orchestrated by the Clinton administration in Enron's favor)?
Have you heard any comparisons to Pacific Gas & Electric going bankrupt a full eight months before Enron?
No? Neither have I. I wonder why.
Every day that goes by it becomes more and more apparent that Henry Waxman, John (dangling-at-the-airport) Dingall and David Walker are only interested in political advantage and in inflicting any damage they can to the Bush administration.
With these guys on the right flank, and Daschle and Gephardt on the left flank, plus the New York Times, Washington Post, L.A. Times, et al., it's amazing that Bush has been able to accomplish anything.
