View Article  Big trouble for SCO

BayStar Capital wants its $20 million back from SCO. The other investor in SCO's legal actions versus the open source community and IBM--the Royal Bank of Canada with $30 million in play--may want its investment back as well. That could mean game over the SCO. It won't have the cash or attractive stock to stay in business or pay its $600 per hour lawyers.

      Mike Wallace and Bob Woodward

Bob Woodward discussed his new book with Mike Wallace (who will be 86 next month) on 60 Minutes. Some startling revelations, but the most outrageous and damning was that Prince Bandar, the Saudi ambassador and close friend of the Bush family, promised Bush that Saudi Arabia would lower oil prices in the months before the election to ensure the U.S economy is pumped up.  Of course, the Bushies will deny this and the Prince will do the same...but we could hear about impeachment sooner than later for misleading the U.S. citizens and price fixing ...and the Kerry team will make sure this doesn't get swept under the rug. The Republicans will go after Woodward, saying  he is being played by his sources--but it won't hide the fact that another Watergate is in the making...and thousands of lives lost this time.
