"It's ironic that Davis would bring Peace in to fix the problem that has at its roots the disaster that Peace helped create," said Doug Heller of the Santa Monica-based Foundation for Taxpayer and Consumer Rights.

This is in the same category as asking Saddam the Sodomite to certify/insure that there are no weapons of Mass Destruction in Iraq and leaving the investigations for WMD up to him.

Peace produced the cult movie classic "Attack of the Killer Tomatoes."

Now that explains a lot about our energy debacle...

At least $20 billion was removed from California's coffers
to pay for spot rate electricity, but Davis is blaming the shortfall on reduced revenue from dot coms and high income residents. In a way, it was a good thing Simon lost...

"Peace released a video last year countering charges that he engineered deregulation. The tape portrayed him as a skeptic of deregulation who shepherded the policy through the Legislature because he wanted to make sure that consumer protection would be included in the final version."

Ok, Lewislynn, this here should finally settle the argument you've desperately hung onto by your fingernails!!!

This is the DEMOCRAT State Senator that made what WAS "Deregulation" into a phoney failure by putting that idiotic element of not allowing utilities to pass through ANY increased costs in the form of rate increases "...because he wanted to make sure that consumer protection would be included in the final version."

Yes, the Governor signed it with that flaw in it, but even you would have signed it to get some kind of deregulation from the costly regulation we'd had up to that time. Our high rates of electricity were keeping business and industry from locating here due to 8 cents and more per kilowatt hour!!!

Now I want to see you come on here and finally admit your have been terribly mistaken in your Repellican Party bashing. I have left the Repellican Party myself, but certainly NOT for the mistaken reasons you have proffered ad nauseum!!!

Oh boy! Maybe lewislynn will explain to us (again) how Jim Brulte really wrote the deregulation legislation when he was (supposedly) Assembly Speaker (a position he never held).

LOFL, so Davis wants as his budget advisor the same scumbag who left the state $35 billion in the hole? He wants this scumbag, Peace, to bend over the traditional American family and have his way with them for more and more taxes? Hahahahahaaaaa.......!!!
