Diane Feinstein hand picked Bustamante to run for governor against Ahnold was that he was spending some of his time going after the Enron money. And I guess that Di Fi wanted him busy with the governor campaign so he couldn't make headway on the Enron project.

We really need a separate arm of the Occupy movement to focus on occupying the f___ers at the TV stations, who give us about 90 seconds of major news stories (Facts relating to wars we need to commit our troops and money to, or the State of THe Union Address by the President, and yet has five minute spiels on restaurants that are "new and exciting."
