Bush refrained from putting any pressure on FERC to get off of their ass and investigate the "manipulation" of the California State Power Grid. Moreover, the senior staff of FERC were good old Bush appointees from his good old buddy network in the energy industry. Bush just doesn't give a PHUCK about the economy of California.
Earlier this year, the State saw 33,000 salmon die off because of a lack of water coming down the Klammath River from Oregon into California. Why? Because Bush sent Carl Rove out to Oregon for a couple of "personal" visits to pressure on the Interior Department and Oregon State Water Regulatory officials to divert water extra water from the river to farmers.

Bottomline: Due to politics, Bush let the nation's biggest economic locomotive twist in the wind. . . Moreover, like his father before him, he has no idea how to manage the domestic economic scene. He much prefers dealing with Foreign Affairs and Policy.
Like Father, Like Son.
