Governor Schwarzenegger Gives Energy Assurances
http://abclocal.go.com/kfsn/news/082605_nw_governor.html

Governor Schwarzenegger has given California an electric pledge. He insists that despite the rolling blackouts on Thursday, there's no energy crisis this summer.

With rolling blackouts affecting half a million homes in Southern California Thursday, Governor Schwarzenegger on Friday assured Californians the problem was in a transmission line and the state should make it through the summer.

"We are very fortunate that our energy situation is under control. That we have, every day, more than 10% of reserves in energy," said Governor Schwarzenegger.

1. We are very unfortunate
to have a pandering, patronizing, sopping-with-steroids twit as governor of CA.

Of course, that's who the people wanted. Gary Coleman would've been better.

arnie newsflash over here filed under "Assurances".

"Six arrested at state office distributing union newsletters"

<Snip>

"It should now be obvious to everyone that Gov. Schwarzenegger is
anti-worker, whether it's teachers, nurses or those who work for the state.
His Special Election directly attacks workers, and now he prevents union
literature from being distributed as required by law," said Craig Peterson,
a Green Part member and member of the American Postal Workers Union.

At least six people – including the secretary-treasurer of Local 1000 of
the Service Employees International Union (SEIU) – were jailed for
trespassing and refusing to obey a police officer after they entered a
"restricted" area of CalTrans. Even two members of the Legislature were
denied entry to the building."

7. the repubs are always anti-worker, and that includes the middle class
they have a Kick Ass Propaganda Machine to make it seem otherwise, but they are screwing labor and the techo-hip middle class. Sooner or later, the hard-working middle class will WAKE ALL THE WAY UP, and Realize how BADLY they have been SCREWED by BushCo,
