GUILTY BASTARDS!!!!!!!!!!!

From BBC News:

Ken Lay and Jeffrey Skilling, former bosses of energy trader Enron, have both been found guilty of fraud.

The two presided over the spectacular collapse of the energy giant in 2001 and are also accused of lying to investors about its financial problems.

Randy Cunnnigham, Tom DeLay, Ken Lay, Jeff Skilling, Karl Rove, Jack Abramoff...

Slowly we are chipping away at the Halliburton/Enron Republican culture of corruption.

Enron Spinron

I just wrote about this today with a cover of the NY Daily Post (with a few little artistic photoshop tweaks) featuring Ken Lay.

The Enron Trial and perhaps the Bush Presidency will bookend the Postmodern Era where truth is fungible and the narrative belongs to those who create it and control it.

Such spinnable sagas... When he rode a boat named Amnesia, how could Lay really forget? The tilted back go-go-logo says a lot.

Even Skilling tries to use the word *tilted* in his defense (quoted in today's WSJ).

Cheers from MotherPie...

P.S. I have no idea how that ugly mugly photo came up with my id. It isn't mine and it doesn't make me feel welcome on this site (first-time visitor)...

Words to live by

Politics are not the answer for black people, never have been, never will be. Been knocking on that door for too long now...nobody has answered...STOP knocking!

This is not to say that some well-meaning but, misguided, black people have not attempted to promote change through these channels but...c'mon people...it aint workin'

I would also like to add, that black people are NOT a monolith. There is room for a plethora of opinions, discourses, methodologies, and passions in the struggle...HOWEVER...there is no room for self loathing and the loathing and mistrust of other black people.
