Edmondson is a democrat who seems to be willing to do something that our crooked president won't do -- holding these corporate pigs accountable.
Instead of praising them for screwing their stockholders, he's trying to hold them accountable. What a novel concept. Apologies if this is a dupe.

Attorney General Drew Edmondson filed criminal charges today against WorldCom Inc., a huge telecommunications company, and six former employees.
In the charges filed in Oklahoma County District Court, Edmondson accused the company and employees falsifying information in its stocks and bonds.

" We allege the company and these six employees executed a scheme to artificially inflate t he value of WorldCom stock and bonds by intentionally falsifying information filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, " Edmondson said. " Securities analysts and the investing public, including the state of Oklahoma, rely on this information when making investment decisions. "
