Who cares about bush.
It's the bad taste in the mouth of the California Rate Payer who had to put up with P.G. and E gas prices rocketing 1200 percent..at one point..
(had to listen to all the bogus attacks from the energy guys...fighting with the govenor.....
had to live with intermittent brown outs effecting industries)...
and then told it was some kind of twisted BK P.G. and E story ...
(and oh by the way you gotta' pay for that too...because P.G. And E. CORP is now an intra STATE corporation...and they can bypass state law and get all thier assets somehow funneled back to P.G. and E Corp...By some joke of a system that somehow..allowed an energy joke on the American Public....
and now it can be traced back in part to a giant enron Scan...
and now...Oh man...what were you saying about not being political.

I don't know, but what I read is that some things improper happened at Enron. One example, borrowing $100-million and then recording that debt as revenue and there are numerous other examples. Top Enron execs had a close relationship with important government officials, some may be found to have comitted a crime. Hundreds of millions of dollars lost, some of it appearing to line executive pockets. It makes me a bit curious about what the government's relationship with Enron was.
