Kenny Boy on the stand

Digby has a post about how Ken Lay did during his days in court. For those of you who've recently wakened from a coma, Kenny Boy is George W. Bush's nickname for one of his largest financial supporters and the CEO of scandal-riddled and now defunct Enron. He's on trial now in Texas and the always readable Digby ends his piece on Kenny Boy on the stand thusly:

Can't you just see Bush stabbing Cheney and Rove in the back and blaming them for all his troubles? Being snotty to the prosecutor? The whole thing sounds like a typical Bush press conference to me.

Just as a reminder, Kenny Boy Lay was Bush's biggest contributor in 2000. His presidential campaign received $1.14 million from Enron. And Enron got its money's worth until the whole thing imploded:

Shortly after taking office, President Bush waged a battle against the imposition of federal price controls in California that allowed Enron to price-gouge consumers by extending the energy crisis in California, costing the state billions of dollars. Enron reported increased revenues of almost $70 billion from the previous year.

Two peas in a pod, Lay and Bush. Arrogant losers who drove their organizations into the ground.
