Bush legal counsel's firm defending Saudis against 9-11 victims

Can this administration possibly get any more outrageous?

Baker & Botts -- this is the law firm defending the Saudis in the lawsuit filed by victims of 9-11. The "Baker" in this law firm is James Baker III, who is also the leading counsel for the Carlyle group and was the point man for George Bush during the election 2000 recount.

As its energy practice has evolved, the firm has set up offices in Azerbaijan and Saudi Arabia..."
