Enron still the top career patron of GWB

WASHINGTON, January 8, 2004 — Enron Corp., the Houston-based energy firm that touched off a financial, legal and political scandal when it declared bankruptcy in December 2001, remains the top career patron of President George W. Bush, whose prolific fundraising in 2003 shattered all previous records for candidates. Enron's employees and political action committee have given more than $600,000 to Bush over the course of his political career, according to a new Center for Public Integrity book, The Buying of the President 2004 (HarperCollins).
In 2003, executives of the reorganized Enron—including Joseph W. Sutton, the company's chairman—continued to contribute to the Bush campaign.

Joseph W. Sutton (Vice Chairman not Chairman) resigned from Enron Corp in late 2000 or about a year before Enron went belly up. I bet he still gves money to Bushco, but not as an employee of Enron.

I believe that only one of Old Enron's senior officers (one of the 50 or so facing shareholders lawsuits, etc.) is with the New Enron.

that passed from average Americans' hands into his pocket, and note that he's still walking free, and it looks like every penny he got his employees to donate to Republicans was worth the effort he put into delivering that money to Bush.
