There is no law that requires ethics. However there is law enforcement that prosecute non-Bush Cheney contributors quickly (Sam Waksal and most of his family) but refuses to prosecute those who steal $billions - Enron, Aurthur Andersen, Global Crossing, Xerox, etc. When is even one energy trading company among the five that conspired to create the CA energy crisis going to be prosecuted. Will not happen. Harvey Wills(?) (former head of the SEC) did his dirty work for the president. This way the company does not have to be ethical - because it is legal to 'enourage' employees to contiribute.
Two friends with large salaries on separate occasions detailed the 'blackmail' to contribute to someone they would never vote for - since after all, the company gets a list of how much they contributed. It is all legal. And since it is for Bush Cheny, ethics is but a joke.
This adminsitration willnot even let the 9/11 Commission have information on what the administration knew. Why do they again fear the truth - like Nixon - another champion of ethics.
