Reliant was run by James Baker...

Is that a lie or merely a mistake. James Baker did not "run" Reliant Resources. He was merely a director. Your conspiracy theories about the California energy crisis and the Bush-Cheney campaign are beginning to wear thin. Show me some proof. If it actually existed, someone would have blown the whistle by now.
