Congressman Bob Filner's mayoral bid and focus on supporting your green energy district CCA is perhaps the most important mayoral campaign for CCA in the U.S.. It is the image of the little school of fish shaped like a fish eating a shark. What adds even more drama to the remarkable scale of CCA (800 U.S. cities in states comprising 25% of the entire U.S. electricity industry) is the magnitude of PG&E's political aggression. We have formed a conflict in which a major global energy corporation is essentially attacking the ancient parliaments of medieval fortress cities, seeking to undo the charters they have formerly signed. Prop 16 and now this are a major national story that will no doubt end up on "60 Minutes" - the dissembling, the hundreds of millions of dollars - this crossing of classic 19th century robber baronhood, the Charlemagne levels of untouchability by McFadden in Sacramento and Jung in San Francisco, crossed with smily-faced 21st century niceguy act of the PG&E CEOs, is a whole new kind of twistedness in the annals of political corruption and the decline of republics.<br />accountablepublishing.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01008679089725252649noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5364919791084375192.post-859355588773622482012-08-06T14:48:48.632-07:002012-08-06T14:48:48.632-07:00Where is the existential revolt about this and the...Where is the existential revolt about this and the conspiracy to say nothing during the election cycle about Global Warming.<br /><br />Mobilization on all fronts is the answer.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16067024724520112680noreply@blogger.com
