The article doesn't have any of the actual video, but they do have excerpts of it on MSNBC, such as Dubya and George praising the former Enron exec.

"You have been fantastic to the Bush family. I don't think anybody did more than you did to support George..." - says Bush, Sr.

He's correct, too. Over Dubya's political life, no company has donated more to help him than Enron.

Oh, don't be such a gloomy gus.

One open-mike mistake, and Bush could be hanging out with Trent Lott.
It couldn't hurt to print up lots of IMPEACH BUSH (and IMPEACH PRESIDENT ROVE) stickers and put them up here and there, just to get the idea into people's heads.

As evidenced in this last election, the average American voter doesn't seem to care much about Enron. Good luck, but I'm betting that Bush will be re-elected in 2004, too. The GOP will figure out how to smear Edwards (yep, it's going to be Edwards who will run on the Dem ticket). I'm in Texas, and it's really infuriating how people like to support and reward him for doing pretty much nothing. The more he fails, and the less he does, the more he succeeds, people. He's better than Clinton in this regard -- not only does he defy gravity, he reverses the laws of gravity. (Even Clinton was brought down to the hard ground in the end.)

I don't understand it either, but I think this says less about Bush and more about most of our fellow countrymen in general -- and that depresses me more. Bush simply has an innate ability to tap into that side of Americans' empathy to reward those who don't deserve it.

The Republic is dead. It died two years ago. We're an Empire now. But we don't even have cool clone troopers to send to war to do our bidding. Just boring-ass drone planes.

Is it any surprise that the corporate vampires are laughing at how easily they are ripping us off? Enron, Shrub, War on "fill in your noun here", Trent Lott,... it's even more depressing when you look on the other side and see Joe Lieberman...

Clones, ernie? It's all about vacuuming your house.

Sorry, ernie. The Bush administration is way ahead of you. (You didn't think they banned human cloning out of principles, did you?)

Paul: are you thinking what *I'm* thinking?
an army of clones???

Thanks, Craniac. Shift the burden to someone else.The future hasn't happened yet.

Banking on the democrats won't help. Discovering our own power is the only solution. Building an oppositional force is the only way to stop a runaway oligarchy.

There is no way on this earth that Bush will lose in 2004. It makes me sick to think about it, but it's true. Please prove me wrong.

That shouldn't be too hard: One of the morning network "news" shows ran bits of the video.

If a copy could land in the hands of the Daily Show, I would love to see the segments they'd produce!

Hell, the best part is where George Bush Senior lavishes praise on Enron and says that they're the Bush family's and his little boy's George's bestest friends.

I hope that gets played over and over and over again in 2004.
