Who Did VECO Piss Off

Oil execs plead guilty in political kickback scandal

While corruption and collusion between oil executives doesn't come as a surprise to me seeing people held accountable for it does.

It also seems apparent that from the brewing scandal around Attorney General Alberto Gonzales that the Department of Justice likely doesn't investigate people the administration likes.

We also know that with Bush and Cheney, that this administration is incredibly linked to the oil industry.

This begs the question who did VECO piss off in order to actually have some accountability?

Lourdes Holy Water

Really people? If you believe in the miracle of holy water there is a bridge I'd like to sell you.

from the site:
But among the sick that flock here, many come to be immersed in its waters, and some are healed. Since the first healing, of Catherine Latapie, on March 1st, 1858, as many as 2,500 unexplained healings have been recorded. But many feel that the true miracle of Lourdes is, above all, the presence and goodness of God, expressed in this "limited bodily Proof of the unlimited grace offered to all" (R. Laurentin).
