I thought they were actually ramping up and getting things done, too bad.

That was my first thought. They’ve had several other power-related issues in the last few months. I wonder how many of them involve their new politician-approved vendors?

There should be a full forensic investigation of the circumstances surrounding this explosion.

Too bad we can’t trust the FBI. Perhaps DHS has some investigative team that can look into it.

by definition, Spain is chock full of Hispanics....

Actually, by definition, unless the Spaniards also have American Indian blood, there probably aren't any Hispanics in Spain.

Were there any Clintons seen slithering around the area offering insurance contracts before the explosion?
