YOU DON'T SAY
I've misjudged the San Francisco Examiner. From the looks of it's tabloidy format (remember the 9/11 headline: "BASTARDS!"), you'd think that there's Murdoch-NewsCorp money in there.
But you gotta hand it to them for taking this Washington Post story on the immense wealth of members of Bush's cabinet, and fronting it. It's one part "wow!" and two parts "duh", but interesting nevertheless.
The stats?
Paul "Genius of Capitalism" O'Neill: $253 million
Rummy: $115.8 million
Cheneyburton: $104.1 million
Colin Powell: $65.5 million
Don Evans: $47.4 million
The only disappointment is that they didn't mention Army Secretary Thomas "Enron" White. Thankfully, though, the always-reliable Paul Krugman took care of that pretty well this past tuesday.
