Bush consigliere to defend Saudis against 9-11 victims
“The law firm of Baker Botts LLP, headed by James Baker II, who has worked for George W. Bush and acted as counsel for the Carlyle Group, will be defending the Saudis against 9-11 victims. Widows and children victimized by Saudi pilots on 9-11 are seeking $1 trillion in damages for the terror attacks. The White House has made no comment about appearance of impropriety; Baker Botts has remained mute about conflict of interest.
