Hillary Blames Bush for Blackout
NewsMax.com ^ | Aug. 15, 2003 | Carl Limbacher

Posted on 08/15/2003 6:21:36 AM PDT by Hugenot

Just hours after the Northeastern power grid went down shutting off electricity for 50 million Americans, New York Sen. Hillary Clinton took to the airwaves to blame President Bush and his administration's energy policies for pushing deregulation and coddling corrupt power companies like Enron.

"I happen to think that making sure we have a reliable, affordable system of energy is a national priority - and I don't think that this administration sees it that way," Clinton told CNN's "Larry King Live."

"They have continued to try to push deregulation and privatization, and to try to undo a lot of the systems in changes that many of us thought were important and necessary that we tried to work on during the Clinton administration under [Former Energy] Secretary [Bill] Richardson's leadership."

Sen. Clinton also accused the White House of throwing "a lot of roadblocks in the way of [Calif. Gov. Gray] Davis, when he tried to clean up some of the problems that he had with the manipulation of the energy markets by Enron and others."

"So, no," she insisted, "I don't think the federal administration under this president is really focused on making sure we don't have these problems in the future."

Before Clinton phoned in her comments to the King Show, however, Gov. Richardson, now governor of New Mexico, noted that her husband had done little to address the problem during his eight years in office.

"In the Clinton administration, everybody yawned about this, [saying] oh, we don't need to do this. Oh, we don't have a crisis," he told King.

Whoa up there fella, that pic is horrific! She is a bad person, of that there is no doubt. The earrings set the pace, but the pic reminds me of that fat, cruel, stupid queen of hearts in Alice in Wonderland. Just a perfect likeness-inside out.

Good Old Dependable Hillary!!

Hmmm. This makes me think that the East Coast
blackout may be politically-advantageous for the
Democrats!

Even Gray Davis, soon-to-be-recalled Governor
of California was just on Larry King Live and
going on-and-on with the flair of an Electricity-expert.

So...my mind had this "flash"...

What if Davis and Hillary can put some doubt in the
California-voters' minds, and make us THINK that, due to the East Coast Blackout, that California power problems were nothing but problems being faced by the whole nation!

This little diversion-of-the-truth, would let Gray Davis wiggle out of the Recall-Attack and even help him persuade voters to say NO to the recall!

We know who would benefit from Davis staying.

Hillary Rodham Clinton, the junior senator from New York
who has BIG plans centered on becoming President in 2004.

See how New York suffers
after electing Hillary?

Just a taste of how the USA
will suffer as well, when Hillary
is installed to her throne.

LIVING HISTORY, in the making.

""I happen to think that making sure we have a reliable, affordable system of energy is a national priority - and I don't think that this administration sees it that way," Clinton told CNN's "Larry King Live." "

Spoken like a true shrew!

And also spoken like a person who has something to gain from who wins the recall race in California.

Did Hillary Clinton and her comrades
do something to cause this blackout
for political reasons?

BEWARE Hillary!

The WAR has come home!!

Hot story!! I didn't read Carl Limbacher's report
until after I posted above, as I just heard about
Gray Davis' appearance on Larry King Live via the
radio show, The John and Ken Show on KFI Radio.

So it is true.

Hillary Rodham Clinton isn't leaving anything to chance,
she is making sure that Davis is cleared by this
current blackout event, and even went so far as
to call in to Larry King as a guest, to make sure
her "perspective" on the blackout included
a Davis-Bail-Out.

This woman is more than a shrew.

Most don't 'Get It' about HILLARY.
They don't think like HO CHI MINH did during his push to
take over South Vietnam for Communism.

Take yesterday for example:

Thurs AM:
HILLARY Mouthpiece & Calif. Gov. Candidate ARIANNA HUFFINGTON tries to link ARNOLD to ENRON on TV.

Thurs Afternoon:
A massive Power Blackout in America's Northeast starts up in the same place in upstate New York as a similiar one
did in the 1960's.

Thurs Evening:
HILLARY herself tries to link Enron & this new Power
Blackout to President BUSH on CNN's 'Larry King-Live' TV Interview Show.

Thurs Evening:
On TV the Liberal Canadian Government blames power
blackout on a Lighting strike on a Buffalo, New York Nuclear Power Plant.

Thurs Night:
An All-Day Thursday Lighting Map for the entire United
States shows NO LIGHTNING present north of Georgia-North Carolina in the East ...which is NOT shown on TV.

"It's the TV, Stupid, no matter WHO pays for it" = CLINTON M.O., still

Mass-Manipulation of reality via the TV!

No wonder then, that Bill Clinton passed out copies of HItler's book, Mein Kampf, praising Hitler
to be the greatest political mind ever,
when he was Governor of Arkansas.

The Democrats are housing an enemy.

May God protect us all from what this
modern-day Hitleresque-Team has planned.

EVERYONE must see TERMINATOR 3

The story is even more Exciting,
with Arnold Schwartnegger as the Future
California Governor!

The EVIL Terminator Chick = Hillary Clinton
(it's such fun to see Arnold KICK her butt!)

Appearances by lookalikes of Pete Wilson, and
also Gray Davis!

I had SO much fun watching this film, and wish
I'd had a notepad with me to jot down all of
Arnold's great one-liners!

Arnold VS The Democrat MACHINE!!

A MUST SEE Film
A MUST SEE Event!!!

WHO is Hillary Rodham Clinton...really??

And WHY does she keep all media at bay
and always act like a well-oiled-machine
that can't be approached like a normal human-being?

I really would LOVE to see someone in the Media
investigate Hillary. She is too controling and
won't allow unscripted questions or unscripted appearances.

It's time for a HILLARY-GATE Investigation!!!

I feel so much more informed now that I know the Energy Department controls the National Park Service and that Bill Richardson personally authorized starting of the Los Alamos fire.

Newsmax.com's Investigative Reporter CARL LIMBACHER stated on today's Judicial Watch Report Radio Show that the Press is quite likely to leave 2004 Presidential Candidate HILLARY alone again during her Campaign for the Oval Office...

...despite all CARL's Journalistic Works of CLARITY against HILLARY to the contrary.

So the Bush administration hasn't been doing anything, eh?

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA FEDERAL ENERGY REGULATORY COMMISSION

18 CFR Part 35
Docket No. PL03-1-000

Proposed Pricing Policy for Efficient Operation and Expansion of Transmission Grid

(Issued January 15, 2003)

AGENCY: Federal Energy Regulatory Commission.
ACTION: Notice of Proposed Policy Statement

SUMMARY: The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (Commission) proposes a new pricing policy for the rates of transmission owners that transfer operational control of their transmission facilities to a Regional Transmission Organization (RTO), form independent transmission companies (ITCs) within RTOs, or pursue additional measures that promote efficient operation and expansion of the transmission grid. The proposed policy would create rate incentives that reward RTO and ITC formation and grid investment, because independent regional grid operation and coordination will improve grid performance, reduce wholesale transmission and transactions costs, improve electric reliability, and make electric wholesale competition more effective in ways that benefit all customers. We invite comments on the proposed policy statement.

Is she kidding. If he were to push for more power generation, she would be screaming that he was helping his buddies in the power biz. This sinful c**t wants is all ways! She must be removed from office.
