What in the Hell Ever Happened to the Texas Criminals: Wendy & Phil Gramm?
Edited on Wed May-04-05 04:58 PM by David Zephyr
Isn't it revealing how these two Enronian criminals have just fallen off of the radar?

Does anyone know what's up with these two Texas-sized crooks?

Where are they hiding?

How do we get the spotlight back on them again?

Any of our Texan DU'ers have any scuttlebutt on these two?

Enquiring minds want to know just where and why they are laying so low.

2. where is Wendy?

So where is Gramm now? Ironically, she is in the center of the corporate governance debate. Gramm, 59, is chairman of regulatory studies for the Mercatus Center, a conservative think tank affiliated with George Mason University in Virginia. She recently moderated a panel on a proposed rule by the Securities and Exchange Commission to give shareholders more access to board selection. But the dozens of corporate governance experts attending the December meeting didn't acknowledge the white elephant in the room. Enron came up in passing, but the fact that one of its former directors was leading a discussion about how boards of directors should be held accountable to shareholders went unspoken.

5. APB: Wendy and Phil, Come out wherever you are.
For someone as loudmouthed and outspoken on every issue on the planet, Phil Gramm has certainly become notoriously quiet of late.

4. Thanks, antigop. See how they've been out of the news for years now?
I can't find anything on these two more fresh than what you've given.

Apparently, they are as hard to spot as Osama...and he even appears in videos from time to time.

6. So maybe if I committed a crime and defrauded innocent people,
I could finally find a job?

7. If you lay low and drop off the map like Wendy and Phil.
No news on these two in 1-1/2 years? Really.
