48. I'm constantly amazed at the people that log in here
purporting to know something about politics and the subsequent finance of same. Now it should be apparent to you the Governator is ineffective and only involved in the same thing as the other rapacious capitalists loosed on California by Bushco: transfer of capital and wealth away from here and into the coffers of an offshore banking entity.

Such pathetic spouts are clear cover for these modern day pirates,the primary reason that the people are screwed once again; because nobody bothers to do any heavy lifting intellectually, just blort out a catchphrase they want you speak for them.

The SAME banks that made billions in interest and fees off the Enron company, then extended banana republic junk bond rates to finance California's sudden Enron related power debts, these SAME banks, these SAME banks paid off Arnold's debts in a private "fundraiser" held in New York City, then got the underwriting of the NEW debt. Instead of a California firm getting the underwriting and servicing fees,keeping at least 150 million in the state, it goes to a bank primarily controlled by Saudi Financial interests.

Never mind that the whole thing is covered on the backs of your grandchildren ala the national deficit; or that a 1% TEMPORARY raise in the sales tax , Phil Angelides' plan, would have paid down this debt which was unjustified in the first place. Never mind that Governator settled our claims of fraud against the power companies for pennies on the dollar. No, what's important is that we get retread "Hans and Franz " quotes when trouble pops up, because after all, isn't quality entertainment more important than actually putting a stop to this permanent money flow out of the 5th largest economy in the world to the coffers of an international oil based power controlled by foreigners like the REST of our national debt is?

Now, who's the twit again?
No. Let me rescind the twit reference. By now, I'm sure a new and better talking point will emerge on the Fox channel.
