Clinton policies were actually much mroe favorable to Enrons way of doing business. FOr example Ken Lay was a huge supporter of the Kyoto agreement, which Bush has all but scrapped.

Who was president while Enron was doing all it's shenanigans? Not Bush.

HUH!

W used Enron's plane to fly around the country during his campaign and Enron and Ken Lay were W's biggest contributors.

The reason Ken Lay supported Kyoto was because he was afraid of stricter regulation - Kyoto was a compromise.

Enron donated 3x as much money to republicans as democrats.

EDIT: It was Gingrich's "Contract on America" that caused all the problems with Enron because of the deregulation that occurred blaming Slick for Enron doesn't make any sense.
