Election Information

As the elections approach, people tend to forget some of the scandals of the past....here's one from the history book....Enron....remember them...and all the accusations about the ties to Bush/Cheney....well here are some facts...

  • Enron's chairman did meet with the president and the vice president in the Oval Office.
  • Enron gave $420,000 to the president's party over three years.
  • It donated $100,000 to the president's inauguration festivities.
  • The Enron chairman stayed at the White House 11 times.
  • The corporation had access to the administration at its highest level and even enlisted the Commerce and State Departments to grease deals for it.
  • The taxpayer-supported Export-Import Bank subsidized Enron for more than $600 million in just one transaction.

Oh by the way...all these things happened with Clinton/Gore administration...not Bush/Cheney.
