"A
week before George W. Bush's 1990 sale of stock
in Harken Energy Co., the firm's outside lawyers
cautioned Bush and other directors against selling
shares if they had significant negative information
about the company's prospects.The
sale came a few months before Harken reported significant
losses, leading to an investigation by the Securities
and Exchange Commission." |
How
George W. Bush Scored Big
With the Texas Rangers , by
Charles Lewis and the Center for Public Integrity
"When George W. Bush first embarked on a deal
to buy the Texas Rangers professional baseball team
in 1988, he already had his eye on the governor's
mansion in Austin. But he knew that to have a shot
at winning, he would need better credentials than
a string of unsuccessful oil companies and a failed
bid for a seat in the U.S. House of Representatives."

Clear
Channels Connections to Bush
March
20, 2003, found on Take Back the Media
From the New York Press and Atrios
"Whether or not the close ties between the
radio behemoth Clear Channel and the president have
anything to do with their rallying support for his
policies is unclear. If it were a small company
it would not much matter. But Clear Channel is a
media giant, dominating the radio and promotion
industries." |
Succeeding
in Business, by
Paul Krugman
July 7, 2002, New York Times
"But the administration hopes that a narrow
focus on the reporting lapses will divert attention
from the larger point: Mr. Bush profited personally
from aggressive accounting identical to the recent
scams that have shocked the nation."
