re: California's energy crisis.

They brought it on themselves. They do not permit coal burning plants in CA. Coal plants account for 1/2 of the
US's electricty. But it is beneach CA to allow them in their state. They didn't build plants in the past 10 years while their demand nearly doubled. Bush doesn't owe CA any free handouts. I feel sorry for them, but you can't get around the supply/demand equation. They need to build plants and pay the market rate for electricity like everyone else does. The tree huggers will ruin CA before it is all said and done.
