Merchants," Oil Companies, Hijack Foreign Policy; Americans Act as
Volunteer Hostages PHOENIX, Feb. 3 -
Who says money cannot buy a presidency?
Yes, even Presidency of the United States.
Its just that the bigger the office, the bigger the price? But
also the bigger the returns to the buyers of political favors. Enter Enrons Ken
Lay, Bush Sr.s close pal, by far the brightest of the Bush League
All-Stars. With over $2.5
million in his own and corporate political contributions, Lay was by far
the biggest financial supporter of
Dubyas campaigns. Which is why the
Presidents claim sounded so lame when he tried to deflect the blame.
He said that Lay/Enron supported the Democrats.
True? to the tune
of less than half a million dollars.
But the Bush League Republicans got more than $2 million from the
failed energy company and its former chief (see the chart and Bush
League All-Stars table).
(Also see "Enron's
Croat Connection", Item 2 of this article). From social to
economic influence, Lay and Enron had their fingerprints all over the
Bush administration. In
fact, Enrons One Good Return (Was) Political Investments, read the
headline of a Jan. 31 editorial by Wall Street Journals Albert Hunt. Which is why when
George W. Bush did an abrupt turn-about-face on Jan. 23 - from
supporting Lay/Enron to criticizing both - he committed the ultimate sin
of a politician and of the members of the worlds oldest profession.
He didnt stay bought! (the only honest politician is one who
stays bought, according to an old political saw). Cheney:
Always Ready to Cut a Good Deal?
This much is
clear? Lay/Enron first lobbied Washington to support a huge power plant
in India which the World Bank called a white elephant eight years ago.
Then it tried extortion (threat of Washington sanctions) to get
$2 billion from Indias government.
Writes the Journals Hunt: Vice
President Cheney, on June 27, lobbied Indian opposition leader, Sonia
Gandhi, on behalf of Enron, shortly after the Cheney energy task force
specifically recommended promoting energy production India. What was
Enron's role? Mr. Cheney won't say? The
Enron/India episode undercuts the administration's contention that it
only followed its free-market principles. Treasury Secretary O'Neill
approvingly noted that, "The genius of capitalism is people make
good or bad decisions and they get to pay the consequences or enjoy the
fruits." Enron
failed in India and, under a controversial and contested contract,
wanted to be bailed out. Irrespective of whether a failure to do so
would have hurt foreign investment in India, was it the role of the
American government to seek such a favor for a big campaign contributor? Hunt answers his
own rhetorical question: Is
Michael Jordan good for the NBA? Is Helen Hunt a great actress? Is
Madonna trashy? Of course,
Enron/Lay were buying favors when they made huge contributions to the
Bush campaign. India was
just one of many episodes that illustrate that money can and does buy
power and influence in our corrupt political system: Few
special interests got more access or results than Enron: legislative
favors, a lax oversight of its risky financial derivatives, tax breaks,
unsurpassed input into the Cheney energy legislation drafting process
and most of what it wanted, and reportedly even veto authority over
regulatory appointees. Enron's
successes soured only when the company's fortunes turned south last
October. It was, as Democrats James Carville and Paul Begala charge,
"like the hooker who fell out of love with the sailor after he ran
out of money". Or like a
politician who doesnt stay bought. And now,
politicians of such low morals as Bush and Cheney are leading the nation
into a flag-waving frenzy and an open-ended war on terrorism.
That is was predictable as it is pathetic.
Dubya Dubya Dubya Dot Warmonger Dot Com, was a sub-heading of
a TiM Bulletin published at a time the dot-coms were still worth
something (see Weep
Mankind! -Jul 26, 2000). More than 18
months later, tens of thousands of lives extinguished by war can perhaps
help mankind understand better why our headline for the July 2000 news
story about Cheney being picked by Dubya for his Veep was Weep Mankind!
As chairman and CEO of Halliburton, the 22nd largest
Pentagon contractor with about $600 million in Department of Defense
(DOD) revenues in 2000, Cheney was in the war business.
As Dubyas Veep, Cheney is in the war business.
Cheney, the epitome of the New
World Orders motto - perpetual
war for perpetual commerce, (also see Chronicles
column, Aug. 1998) has been working on both sides of the
Washington-Death Merchants revolving door for 34 years.
And it shows?
Wall
Street investors who backed the "death merchants" have seen
the Top 10 Pentagon defense contractors' stocks outperform the market
(the S&P 500 index) by a 2.5-to-one ratio since March 23 (+15% vs.
+6%), the day before the shooting war started in Yugoslavia.
After
lagging the S&P during the first three weeks of NATO's war on
Serbia, the Top 10 Pentagon stocks surged ahead in mid-April, and stayed
ahead of the market, as it became evident that this war could drag on.
And as Congress started to deliberate the White House's request for
additional $12 billion of funding for the Pentagon.
Weve just updated
our study of the Top
50 Pentagon contractors business volumes for 2000.
And guess which company has benefited the most in 1998-2000 from
the increases in military spending?
Surprise, surprise? It was Cheneys Halliburton!
It topped ALL OTHER (!) death merchants by growing its
Pentagon-related business by 108% (see the chart and Top
50 Pentagon contractors by annual spending increase table at our web
site).
On the global
scene, the U.S. arms manufacturers 2000 sales surged by 44% since 1999,
to $18.6 billion, topping all other international death merchants, and
accounting for exactly half of all global arms sales.
Russia was a distant second with $7.7 billion of revenues, but
with an even higher (60%) annual increase. And just think?
the global death merchants had collected such impressive New World Order
peace dividends long before the Bush administration took power, and well
before the Sep. 11 attacks. As
the WTC towers collapsed, the death merchant fortunes surged.
The post-911 world promised to be a free-for-all feast for the
military contractors and energy companies.
And a sunset for a civilized world. Wasting no time
for chance to gouge the flag-waving public, the Bush administration has
already marshaled huge increases in our nations defense spending (an
additional $59 billion in fiscal 2003 alone; $675 billion over the next
10 years - see the chart). No
wonder the shares of the top Pentagon contractors are thriving on Wall
Street. The Raytheon
stock, for example, the nations third largest defense contractor with
$6.3 billion in DOD revenues in 2000, closed at $23.95 on Sep. 10 - the
52 week LOW. Raytheon
closed at $38.27 on Jan. 31 - a 52-week HIGH! So Wall Street
knows what Washingtons war against terrorism is all about, even if the
naïve, flag-waving Main Street Americans dont.
The U.S. taxpayers are hostages of the death merchants and energy
companies, and of their Washington peons at Dubya Dubya Dubya Dot
Warmonger Dot Com. Willy-nilly,
we have been all harnessed (by our stupidity and gullibility) into
supporting the Bush League jihad against jihad; into cheering and
funding acts of state terrorism in the name of fighting individual
terrorism. And for the sole
benefit of Enrons, Lockheeds, Boeings, Raytheons or Halliburtons of the
corporate world. If the
flag-waving U.S. public werent as stupefied (see "Dancing
'Round the Golden Calf," a Washington Times, Aug. 31, 1997),
Americans would be waving the stars and stripes upside-down - a sign of
distress. For, weve lost
thousands of innocent lives because of the hatred Washingtons policies
have sowed; weve lost our dignity by stooping down to the terrorists
level; weve lost respect of other nations around the world, even of our
friends and allies; we are losing freedoms and rights enshrined in our
Constitution for which our forefathers died in the American Revolution;
and now? we are about to lose our shirts, too, once the new military
budget is implemented. And just think?
weve lost all that just so that a few death merchants and energy
companies could make a few extra bucks.
And whats the
American public doing about it? In
a word - cheering! About
82% of Americans approve of the job George W. Bush is doing as
president, according to a Wall Street Journal/NBC poll taken Jan. 18-21,
and published in the Jan. 24 edition of the Wall Street Journal.
As to the Enron scandal, 40% of Americans are not particularly
concerned about the Bush administration, according to the same poll. This writer hangs
his head in shame. As a
free-thinking American. For
once, the Truth in Media editor wishes the media had lied.
For, that would be less painful than having to reconcile oneself
to being surrounded by so many morons. Patriot
Diapers!? And what are the
leading American business executives doing about having their business
interests In other words,
they are acting like shepherds who allow themselves to be led by the
sheep. Which, in turn, are
following the wolves in sheeps clothing - straight to the slaughterhouse
(also
see Ostriches,
Sheep and Sardines, this writers Oct. 1999 Sydney, Australia,
lecture). For, using our
flag for commercial purposes is a crass, disrespectful, disgraceful,
despicable... desecration of everything for which the Old
Glory stands. Even the Wall Street Journal acknowledged that (see "Marketers
Tread Precarious Terrain", Feb. 5). Business leaders
should be educating the public about the real patriotism and dignity,
not pandering to the crowd's lowest instincts. Besides, a war
economy is not necessarily good for everyones business, as Americas
industrial warmongers would have us believe.
Airline, health care, tourism, transportation, insurance, IT
companies? are only some among several industries whose leaders should
be voicing their dissent but arent. In fact, few
American executives are even bothering to define their unique business
interests, let alone oppose the direction in which they are being pulled
by their noses by death merchants and oil companies Washington proxies.
Given the herding mentality thats now pervading our country, like
the American people, most business leaders feel dissent would be
considered unpatriotic. This writer hangs
his head in shame. Again.
This time, as an independent American businessman. Because a herding
mentality and blind one-mindedness have led to creations of yesteryears
bogeymen, like Adolf Hitler. The
moment business leaders and the German people stopped questioning and
started obediently following their popular leader in the 1930s, their
fate was sealed. Are
Americans today making the same mistake? One comforting
thought... Don't be afraid of anything except of sin, His Holiness, Serb
Patriarch Pavle, counseled this writer in September 1995, right after
NATO commenced its first bombing of the Bosnian Serbs (see Orthodox
Patriarch Leads by Example, Feb. 9, 1997).
For, God will weigh everything precisely and fairly, he said. Including the
sins of globalist elites, such as Ken Lay and Enrons Peons.
And the stupidity of the panem and circenses (bread and
games)-infatuated materialistic masses.
And the cowardice of business leaders who fail to lead. In
the end, we will all get what we deserve. -------------- 1a.
Bush Didnt Even Stay Bought! Pretzel
Prez Dumps Close Pal and Financier (Enron's Lay) Like Excess Baggage PHOENIX, Mar.
18 - Some
old information has just come to the attention of the TiM editor.
And it sheds additional light on the evidently chummy
relationship between the former head of Enron and the current head of
the White House. The new
details support what weve already concluded about our fearless leader in
the war on terrorism - that George W. Bush seems to be as spineless as
he is corrupt. Heres what we
wrote in our Feb. 3 Bush
League All-Stars article: Which
is why when George W. Bush did an abrupt turn-about-face on Jan. 23 -
from supporting Lay/Enron to criticizing both - he committed the
ultimate sin of a politician and of the members of the worlds oldest
profession. He didnt stay
bought! (the only honest politician is one who stays bought, according
to an old political saw). Of course, we had
reached that conclusion based on other evidence we gathered as we
followed the money. Now,
two articles from over year ago can help lead a reader to the same
conclusion. The Jan. 4, 2001
New York Times piece by David Sanger, Cheers
Fed's Action And Tax Cut, [for
a complete list of invitees to Bushs economic forum held in Austin,
Texas, in early January 2001, i.e., even before his inauguration, click
here to check out the
table at our web site "Some Bush Major Leaguers"]. A Feb. 11, 2001
Los Angeles Times article by Edwin
Chen and Judy Pasternak titled,
Bush's
Ties to Enron Chief Attract Growing Scrutiny,
goes even further, providing juicier details of the close Bush-Lay
relationship, whose existence our fickle turncoat Pretzel Prez is now
denying. The
"Dear Ken" and "Dear George" letters reveal
long-standing personal and professional relationships that are
intimately intertwined, says the LA Times.
How intimate? Beyond
the cash contributions that we have already described, during the (2000)
campaign, Bush repeatedly flew on Enron jets, the LA Times also pointed
out. "There's
always been a question of whether the policies he's pursuing are his or
Ken Lay's. Actually, there is no difference, Craig McDonald, head of the
nonprofit Texans for Public Justice, a political watchdog group that TiM
also referenced in our initial Bush
League All-Stars article,
told the LA Times. Here
are some other excerpts: WASHINGTON
(Feb. 10, 2001) --To hear Kenneth L. Lay tell it, you'd think he's just
another guy who occasionally hands out free advice to his longtime
friend, who now happens to be president? Although
many energy executives and companies have given generously to Bush's
political endeavors, Enron and Lay stand out. Now
58, Lay was a strong backer of the current president's father, former
President Bush. After the elder Bush's defeat by Bill Clinton in 1992,
Enron hired his secretary of State, James A. Baker III, and his Commerce
secretary, Robert A. Mosbacher, as consultants. In
Austin, Lay became a patron of George W. Bush and donated more than
$500,000 to his campaigns, according to the Center for Public Integrity,
a Washington-based watchdog organization. Lay
was also a member of the prestigious governor's business council, which
advised Bush on such matters as deregulating electric utilities, easing
the tax burden on businesses and enacting tort reform? "I
am a strong supporter of the president, as I was with his father. I've
known him and his family for a long time," Lay said during a recent
meeting with The Times' editorial board. But
he added: "Probably my influence over the president or my advice to
the president is grossly exaggerated." Just
five days later, Lay was among a small group of business executives
having lunch with the president at the White House. At the time, Bush
was playing down the need for a federal role in California's energy
problems. More
recently, Lay discussed California's energy crisis with Energy Secretary
Spencer Abraham and Treasury Secretary Paul H. O'Neill. Lay said he
warned both Cabinet officers that the crisis would have "serious
[national] implications" and that "the federal government
needs to . . . at least have some contingency plans." Bush
soon showed far more interest in the crisis. "We have an issue in
America right now called energy," he said during an appearance
Tuesday to tout his tax cut plan?. ---
TiM
Ed.: It is also worthy of note how some of the business media glorified
Enron at the time of the LA Times article (Feb. 2001).
The Fortune and the Business Week, for example, each published
laudatory stories about Enron: ---
It
is, as Fortune magazine put it last year, "far and away the most
vigorous agent of change in its industry, fundamentally altering how
billions of dollars' worth of power . . . is bought, moved and sold,
everywhere in the nation." Amid
the escalating energy crisis, Enron's core business reported income of
$777 million in the fourth quarter of 2000--nearly triple that of a year
earlier, according to Business Week.
Less
than a year later, just like our Bush League leader in the war on
terrorism, the major league media didnt stay bought.
Just as Bush dumped a close friend like excess baggage, the media
are now trying to outdo each other by casting stones at their former
Enron heroes. Just
how close the Bush-Lay ties have been was also illustrated back in
October 1997, when Bush intervened on Enrons behalf by calling the
Pennsylvania governor. "I
am certain that will have a positive impact on the way he and others in
Pennsylvania view our proposal," Lay wrote to Bush, in a letter
obtained by the LA Times. He
was not disappointed. A short time later, Enron gained a foothold in the
Pennsylvania electricity market, the LA Times noted. Thats
the kind of close friendship whose existence our President is now
denying. With friends like
that, who needs enemies, right? Dubyas
current pals would be wise to keep that in mind. As
for the American people, with leaders like that, we would be wise to do
just the opposite from what our Pretzel Prez orders.
If we know whats good for us? By
the way, that Pennsylvania governor who awarded Enron the business was
none other than Tom Ridge, our new homeland security czar, the king of
false alarms. Which shows
how cronyism among the Bush League members is turning our Republic into
a banana republic. And
America into a laughing stock of the rest of the world. ---

Enron's Croat Connection BUDAPEST,
Jan. 31 - Just how wide and deep the tentacles of Enrons corruption have
reached can be also seen from a Jan. 31 story in the Financial Times
(London), filed from Budapest. In
one meeting, Mr (Franjo) Tudjman (Croatias late president) asked Joseph
Sutton, head of Enron's international operations, how much influence his
company had with the US state department and whether it could arrange
WTO (World Trade Organization) entry, the FT writes.
"Mr Sutton said he could not promise WTO membership, but
guaranteed that Enron and the US would lobby for Croatia's entry into
the WTO, Partnership for Peace and Nato." Tudjman
even tried to link the Enron deal with avoiding arrests by the
International War Crimes Tribunal at the Hague over the his and his
governments war crimes against the Serb minority in this small Balkans
country. Heres
an excerpt from that FT report: The
Enron collapse may have finally ended a long-running scandal over
relations between the US energy company and the semi-authoritarian
government of the late Croatian president, Franjo Tudjman. Mr
Tudjman, who led Croatia through independence, negotiated a
controversial memorandum of understanding with Enron before his death in
December 1999. It would have given Enron rights to build a power station
in Croatia and run it for 20 years, selling electricity to HEP, the
state electricity company, at above-market rates. Questions
about the deal intensified after Mr Tudjman's death and the election, in
January 2000, of a democratic government. Tapes of conversations show
that Mr Tudjman hoped giving Enron the contract would secure political
favours, including a state visit to Washington. After
renegotiation, Enron is thought to have retained the right to build a
power station and sell electricity to HEP at above-market rates, though
lower than previously. That contract expires this summer, though details
are unclear due to confidentiality agreements. Enron's
power deliveries to Croatia ended on November 30, when other European
deliveries ceased. The power station has not been built.
The deal's legacy, however, may be the light it sheds on Mr
Tudjman in his later years - and on Enron's readiness to and play along
with his fantasies. [?] Croatia
had been isolated politically - particularly by the European Union -
over treatment of Serbs during the offensive that ended its war of
independence. For
the full story, see Enrons
curious Croatian client. ------------- 3.
Enrons Busted Croatian Deal By
Dr. Tomislav Sunic ZAGREB, Feb. 5
- Further to our report about Enrons busted deal with Croatia's late
president, Franjo Tudjman (see Item 2 of this TiM Bulletin), here is a
piece by Dr. Tomislav
(Thomas) Sunic, who contributed this comment to TiM from Zagreb,
Croatia. Dr. Sunic holds a
PhD in political science. He is a former US professor and author of
several books. "The
former Croatian government under the late president Franjo Tudjman was
eager to cut the deal with the US energy giant Enron. The reason behind
it was its eagerness to obtain favor of the Clinton's administration.
Accordingly, Enron was supposed to build a huge power plant in tiny
Croatia and supply the country with cheap energy. A Croat-American lady
and self-proclaimed "lobbyist," Ms. Zdenka Gast, quite vocal
in the Croat media during Tudjman's reign, played a role as a mediator
between Enron and the Croatian government. Later
on, with the arrival to power in January 2000 of the new neo-communist
liberal government in Croatia, the deal was unilaterally scrapped. The
new Croatian government allegedly viewed it as detrimental to Croatian
economy. But this was, apparently just a minor move in a larger effort
to distance itself from Tudjman's legacy - both the good and the bad
one. Zdenka
Gast, disappeared from the public view and one has not heard from her
ever since. Today, there is a great deal of media silence in Croatia
about the role of Croat politicians in the Enron scandal. One can
speculate with good reason that other local movers and shakers in the
former and current Croat government were involved, or better, yet may
have received hefty kick-backs from the giant? At
the time of the signing of the Enron deal, a prominent go-between-man
was Mr. Goran Granic, who survived the government purges upon the
arrival of the new leftist-liberal government in 2000. Granic even made
it to the top as the Vice Prime Minister in the new government. As an
old Balkan proverb goes, "one hand washes the other." It
is worth noting that Goran Granic is a brother of the former Tudjman
minister of foreign affairs, Mate Granic, a largely incompetent
stuttering, greasy-palmed politician, displaying an extraordinary
penchant for enriching himself, his extended family and his cronies. At
the time of the signing of the Enron deal, William Montgomery was the US
Ambassador to Croatia. After the unilateral scrapping by the deal in
2000 by the new Croat government, Montgomery did not hide his fumed
anger. But since the subsequent surfacing of the Enron wheeling and
dealing in the USA, Montgomery, now a US Ambassador to Yugoslavia,
remains pretty tacit. For
its unilateral breach of contract, the Croat government has had to pay
fines to Enron, although nobody in Croatia knows how big was the penalty
tab. One thing remains
certain, though. Since January of this year, Croat citizens electricity
bills have doubled." Dr. Tomislav
