Jeffrey Skilling, Victim

Ginger Stampley found an unbelievable letter in the dreadful Chron. Here's an excerpt:

The only thing that undermines my belief in any of our institutions is the way that some, in this case the Houston Chronicle, are simply willing to make up or twist facts.

Those of you who read this space regularly are probably nodding at that, even if you're a bit amazed the Chron would run such criticism.

But get this -- that paragraph was penned by Jeffrey Skilling, one of the (alleged) Enron criminals! He's criticizing this article in the Chron, which was, as I pointed out at the time, an incredibly favorable puff piece!

I cannot believe the gall of the Enronites. What a corrupt, warped bunch of people.
