The Enron (and other Texas energy companies) ripoffs happened during the ELECTION as CLinton was leaving office. It was a coordinated attack consumers, the Clinton-Gore economy, California in particular and it cost US consumers about 100 billion dollars. Ed Gillespie was Enron's PR point man. He had a 7 million dollar budget and was paid 700 G's to fool Americans into thinking the democrats were responsible for the energy price spikes, when his fact his own company was at th center of it. Enron was also Bush-Cheney's #1 contributor and longtime ally. This was a shocking crime of enormous proportions. No justice yet but they all belong in jail, including Gillespie.

Funny how the energy crisis suddenly ended the day after Jeffords switched parties and gave the Dems subpoena powers. The day after that we suddenly had an energy SURPLUS. When Cheney had been telling us we need 1300 new power plants (paid for by tax-payers to his buddies) or we'd never have enough energy. Liars, thieves, cheats and criminals.
