| Energy is the gorilla which cast the shadow over Davis’s governorship. It is THE issue. But it hardly spoken these days. Might be smart for us to speak energy right now. To look at the California so-called energy crisis which was and still is a blackmail. And to mull deeply what the following revelations mean for our future. This energy blackmail was engineered by Republicans (Gov. Wilson and helpers who are now the chief Arnold advisors and the 2 Republican Bush presidencies) These Republicans bowed to Enron and other energy companies who wanted deregulation and secret bookkeeping rules so they could quietly manipulate electricity prices whenever they are seized by another attack of greed. With their shams hidden from public view, they could blame high prices and phony electricity shortages they had purposely created on Davis and/or environmentalists. At the time many of us headed by unions shouted “Blackmail” across the state with demonstrations and facts. San Francisco Chronicle called the energy “shortage”more fiction than fact. See the fiction exposed in a clip from the docu-poemvideo SunMt produced for the California Labor Federation 2 years ago. Click here. This is a 3-minute clip loaded with info we all need to have in our heads and hearts when we vote on October 7.  |
Because many of us cannot view video yet, SunMt will run 2+ pages of every Chronicle — first one with stills; the rest with video. |
