Come back to bite me? You just made my point!
Let's see the tally:
Bush (R) - $2m + Donated (President)
Bush (R) - $400k (Governor-Texas)
Gramm (R) - $233k (Senator-Texas)
Cornyn (R) - $150k+ (Senator-Texas)
Bentsen (D) - $42k (Rep-Texas)
Schumer (D) - $21k (Senator-NY)
Bush has recieved far more campaign funds than ANY of these individuals from Enron, and the Republican #'s are *much* higher than the Democrat. The article even concedes that 2/3 of the Enron funds went to Republicans- doing a little elementary school math shows that they recieved at least *double* what the Dems got from the Enron scoundrels. That's not even considering the possibility of independent/third party donations.
Scipio's point was simple- Bush is the presidential candidate that benefits the greatest from Enron. You've gone thru the trouble of proving that the Republican party is just as corrupt. Bravo! Now how about that 99% of trial lawyers figure? Care to prove my point there?
