Enron contributes heavily to Bush's campaign and California's energy crisis

by Partytown
This is an article appearing in the Minneapolis Star Tribune today about the connection between Bush, Enron and the California Energy Crisis.
I guess there are some real journalists who are willing to dig for stories instead of
regurgitate spoon fed press releases.

the New York Times two days ago reported that Enron expects to exceed its quarterly estimates for the first quarter of 2001 by a significant margin.

Can't help but think that has a lot to do with California. I'll be curious to see PG&E corporation's first quarterly reports.

It seems Enron was also a heavy contributor to both of the Clinton inagurals, about $100,00 each, the same as the Bushes

these people are crooks, liars and murderers who advocate ignorance in sexual matters, jailing doctors and criplles,people going blind, people with AIDS and responsible adults that like to smoke pot instead of drinking poison,and generally are willing to hurt, jail and kill in order to support their puritan values(the same values that were called 'manifest destiny' and held up genocide as a virtue). This is what your president is about,your goverment and many of the citizens who support them. America should take to the streets and overthrow these evil fuckers once and for all.

HOW LONG ARE PEOPLE GOING TO WATCH THEIR BROTHERS AND SISITERS,, PARENTS AND GRANDPARENTS,CHILDERN AND NEIGHBORS BE THROWN IN JAIL FOR PRACTISINGWHAT THEY PREACH WHOM ARE NOT HURTING ANYBODY, FOR ATTEMPTING REAL CHANGE, FOR LOOKING FOR THE PEOPLE BEHIND ATROCITIES!!!!!! RISE UP PEOPLE, BEFORE ITS TOO LATE. THE TIME IS NOW,BEFORE THESE VAMPIRES SUCK THE EARTH DRY OF ITS LIFE AND SOUL. FIGHT FOR YOURSELVES OR TURN SLOWLY INTO COMPLETE SLAVES AND DEPENDENTS
