Normally I couldn't care less about celebrity crap but this affected me as a Californian.
The PTB brought in this yo-yo Ahnie for one reason and one reason only -- to squash the billion-dollar lawsuit against Duke Energy who was responsible for the non-energy crisis energy crisis. Rates doubled and tripled in some areas and they NEVER WENT DOWN.
The details about how we ended up with Ahnie are long and sordid with lots of help from Baby Bush and Cheney in the mix. However, during the election 16 women came forward and testified that Ahnie had inappropriately groped them -- most happened while they were doing their job. The GOP dismissed them as political operatives. Fine, that's what the standard response would be. But Maria came forward and defended her pervert husband and basically called his victims liars.
I'm sorry, one or two women making that accusation in a political election is one thing, but 16???? I don't for a minute believe she is stupid so the only conclusion is she was part of the cover-up. She may not have known about the out-of-wedlock kid(s) but she HAD to know about her husband's philandering. Had she stood up for those women and for the people of California, AND had she not talked Oprah into giving him ONE FULL HOUR of free publicity (without offering Davis the same), we would not have ended up with Der Gropenator.
So, pardon me if I'm not cryin' a whole lot of tears here.
