Utility Customers get $400 Million from Sempra Settlement
Response to post #36: The Reader ought to put a Banner: San Diego, America's Most Corrupt Judges, DA, City Attorney, AG and Politicians In America And post signs at the Airport, Port, and on Highways into San Diego: WARNING! San Diego is America's City of Death, Disease, Violence, Corruption, Poverty and The Establishment— May 2, 2010 10:44 a.m.
Utility Customers get $400 Million from Sempra Settlement
Response to post #34: Yes but, UCAN and Shames have been "chasing Sempra" and SDG&E for decades and it is Shames' personal responsibility to San Diego to have the most complete, up to date files on all criminal activities by Sempra as UCAN's obligation to protect San Diego ratepayers from Sempra's criminal activities. All Aquirre should have to do is copy all of Shames/UCAN's, and your files for, as you put it: 'phony energy shortages and blackouts, leading to record high energy prices. In legal documents, Sempra was accused of "Enron-style gaming" of energy markets and a "pervasive pattern of market manipulation and abuse." Sempra was accused of entering "Enron-style partnerships" that unsettled markets, driving prices higher.' It shouldn't take more than a week to press charges and make arrests if all the accusations you alone have made are true.— May 1, 2010 1:41 p.m.

Response to post #32: Isn't "manipulation of energy prices" enough for openers? Sempra has been covering up for a decade now, there must be more under that rock once you start looking. Shames should have rooms full of proof by now. Committing economic terrorism against San Diego ratepayers should be enough. That is unless our judges, puppeticians and the rest of the San Diego Establishment are protecting Sempra also.— April 30, 2010 2:42 p.m.

Response to post #28: If they can send Lay, Skilling and other Enron thieves to jail, why can't we send Peevey, Felsinger and other California thieves to jail for doing the same things?— April 30, 2010 11:55 a.m.
Utility Customers get $400 Million from Sempra Settlement
Response to post #24: Peevey and Felsinger took the same courses, were classless co-valedictorians in fleecing ratepayers, and both were just as responsible for the 2000 San Diego Energy Crisis that has contributed greatly to the decline and fall of San Diego.— April 29, 2010 12:29 p.m.
Utility Customers get $400 Million from Sempra Settlement
Obviously far too many Sempra executives graduated from the Enron Graduate School For Screwing Ratepayers. Just as obviously from everything we learned from Don about Sempra being the root cause of the San Diego Energy Crisis, Business Ethics, Honor, integrity, and Morality were not allowed to be mentioned in any of the courses and anyone who dared to bring those subjects up were dismissed from the school.— April 29, 2010 11:44 a.m.
Utility Customers get $400 Million from Sempra Settlement
Golly LAT reported this afternoon: Sempra said it settled the complaint so it could "move forward and focus on our core business, which is energy." Spokesman Doug Kline stressed that the state's claims of market manipulation were never proved, and the company "did nothing wrong." Why does one pay $400 million when they "did nothing wrong"?— April 28, 2010 3:22 p.m.
Developers Bankrolling "Strong Mayor" Campaign
Response to post #8: Visduh, yours is by far the best response yet. May I borrow your manual of style, because mine really doesn't seem to make the right things happen?— April 28, 2010 5:44 a.m.
Developers Bankrolling "Strong Mayor" Campaign
Response to post #4: FACT: Fat, dirty old white guys rule San Diego. That's why SDLWV, Donna Frye and all other honorable women can't save San Diego.— April 27, 2010 8:50 a.m.
Developers Bankrolling "Strong Mayor" Campaign
Response to post #2: "My guess is that it will breeze in." God help us if that is true, it will eliminate all doubt that the majority of San Diego voters are brain-dead zombies who don't give a damn about quality of life for their families, selling out their children and future generations to a polluted, diseased, impoverished future just like the german voters did when they sold out their democracy before WWII.— April 26, 2010 11:10 a.m.
