It seems California has been in a constant state of administrative turmoil ever since Enron and their ilk conned and cajoled our legislature during Pete Wilson's term to reform and deregulate the energy laws that for over a century had protected California and guaranteed her thirst for power would be met. We have always suspected a dastardly engineered conspiracy conceived in the still-classified FERC meetings where both Rove and Enron exec Ken Lay plotted the path to throw California in to chaos, wherein Enron would profit and Gray Davis would be ousted mid-term in a recall election. There is no solid proof to verify this theory, but we do know now that Enron ordered plants shut down during California's power shortage forcing her to buy more power from other states (Texas) at highly inflated prices.

As if there's no greater proof that there's a higher power at work in LA, may we draw your attention to the fact that Oliver Stone & David Corn will be conversing about politics tonight 7 PM at the UCLA Armand Hammer Museum of Art, Westwood, while across town four past governors of California will discuss whether California is governable at 7:00 p.m. in the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion at the Music Center.
