((Two top Bush cabinet members acknowledged they received phone calls from
Enron C.E.O. Kenneth Lay one month before the 7th largest company in
America spiralled into financial ruin.
And while Lay suggested Enron needed help from the White House, both men
say they never acted on behalf of the energy trader.
SOT: Don Evans, Commerce Secretary (Meet the Press) "I considered it
and said, 'Thank you for the call."
Since those calls -- Enron's collapse has left its stock virtually
worthless -- decimating the pension funds for thousands of its workers.
The downfall of the compnay -- which made huge contributions to the
Bush 2000 campaign -- came as no surprise to Treasury Secretary Paul
O'Neill who said on one Sunday talk show, "companies come and go."
O'Neill defended his decision against intervening on Enron's behalf.
SOT: Paul O'Neill, Treasury Secretary (35:10) "I didn't think this was
worthy of me running across the street (to the White House) and telling
the president."
Senator Joseph Lieberman called some of O'Neill's comments
"cold-blooded."
And because Enron has contributed vast sums of money to both Democrats
and Republicans Lieberman said it may be necessary for an independent
investigation.
SOT: Sen. Joe Lieberman, (D) Connecticut (40:15) "If there is any hint
that someone in the bush administration did anything wrong than maybe we
should have a special counsel."
SOT: Sen. John McCain, (R) Arizona (46:35) "Get all the information
out as quickly as possible and let the chips fall where they may.
Senator John McCain says there's no evidence the Bush Administration did
anything wrong.
But that's little comfort to former Enron employees who want top company
executives behind bars.
SOT: victim (friday evening news)
STAND-UP: Just where this scandal is going is anyone's guess. Both
parties say they want to fix the system that allowed Enron's collapse.

The carnival was held inside the Salem Civic Center all weekend.
While the event mainly drew younger children there were activities for all ages....
Games, rides and food were the main attractions.
The carnival also came to Salem last year.
