Since when are CALIFORNIA's power problems anyone else's fault than CALIFORNIA's? Do you blame the Federal government for everything? Bush (nor the US Government) is not responsible for YOUR STATE's problems in this regard!! YOUR STATE's government is at the front of the line for blame. Why can't you admit that to yourself? Why does the Federal government have to bail out YOUR short-sighted STATE???? Actions taken under the Clinton Administration were intended to deliver CA votes to Gore. Those actions also cost consumers in other states more for their power (produced in THEIR STATES), and all because CALIFORNIA has absolutely refused to deal with it's own problems. It is about time that you all get off of the tit of the Federal government (i.e. expecting the rest of the country to foot the bill for your myopia). What action did GWB take to create the power crunch? I'm really interested to hear your theory... ~SB~

You have shown that your logic is quite limited, but I would like to point out something that you are obviously missing. Corraltion is NOT proof of causation. Your argument (if you can call it that) assumes that it does. That is WRONG.

Dear patty, I find it so amusing all the delusional ideas put forth by those who no comprehension of the how and why of technology the goes into creating a 24x7 power grid. Your comments on cause and effect and statements like. >>>>>We had no blackouts until GWB was selected. I didn't hear talk of problems either until last Fall. >>>>>>Clinton's FERC head worked with CA. Bush's refused to do anything. THe bug crunch came when the power in the White House changed. Show complete and total ignorance. Do you even understand the wiring of you house? Do you have tiniest perception of this. eia.doe.gov you all have a nice day now hear. tom watson tosiwmee
