I made some snarky remarks about Ken Lay today and a woman called to complain, horrified that I would dare make fun of a man who had just died.
I offer no apology. The guy was a scumbag yesterday when he was alive, he's a scumbag today when he's a corpse. There should be no double standard there.
Save your tears for those who deserve it, not some evil, lawbreaking, cheating CEO sumbitch who -- if he hadn't been a multi-millionaire -- would have died in jail awaiting his appeal, instead of at a vacation home in Aspen.
