Now we know one reason that the conservatives have been so hyped up to take over the judiciary for so long: they knew the day was coming when they would start to face indictments.
I can’t possibly list all the indictments and investigations and even convictions that are swirling around the right wing (and a couple of Democrats, as well). But today’s conviction of Ken Lay and Jeffrey Skilling are somewhat satisfying — if only the conviction would force more people to look deeper into their backgrounds, their friends, and the cabal that they were part of.
I’m just saying, Ken Lay spent more than one night sleeping at Dubya’s White House; he donated more than $651,000 to Republicans (and only slightly less than $62,000 to Democrats, which means that Republicans will jump up and say, “He gave to Democrats, too!). He was on the Bush transition team, for crying out loud. He and his cronies caused the power outages that wracked California and subsequently engineered the recall of a Democratic governor and the installation of a Republican.
But hey, I’m just some nutty conspiracy theorist. The right wing isn’t that organized and methodical, right?
