Power went out at my client’s office building six (*!*) times this afternoon; they told us it was PG&E’s fault and would continue all afternoon.

Too bad we don’t have Enron to blame anymore.

eCAHNomics @ 128

Great thought, but it appears not to be the case. I have no memory of having done it, but tried anyhow, hitting on the forgot password button. Got this Message: Sorry, that email address and/or username are not registered.

Perhaps you fell into the potential Republican filter :-?

SCHUMER: Well, wait a minute, sir. Sir, with all due respect — and if I could have some order here, Mr. Chairman — in all due respect, you’re just saying, “Well, it was clarified with the reporter,” and you don’t even know what he said. You don’t even know what the clarification is. Sir, how can you say that you should stay on as attorney general when we go through exercise like this, where you’re bobbing and weaving and ducking to avoid admitting that you deceived the committee? And now you don’t even know. I’ll give you another chance: You’re hanging your hat on the fact that you clarified the statement two days later. You’re now telling us that is was a spokesperson who did it. What did that spokesperson say? Tell me now, how do you clarify this?

GONZALES: I don’t know, but I’ll find out and get back to you.

OT, on the tarted up and dumbed down CBS Evening News with perky Katie Couric the lead story was the 200 point fall on the market. No. 2 was the scandals in the sporting world. No. 3 was the number of registered sex offenders on MySpace. No. 4 a cursory look at Gonzo’s testimony. Our MSM serving the powers that be.

Daschle and Rockefeller say Abu was makin shit up today about the Gang of Eight pressing him to get Ashcroft’s approval so that the program could continue. Have we heard from Harman or Pelosi?

OT: If you’ve not seen it, I strongly recommend Glenn Greenwald’s article on John Yoo that he posted today.

Thanks for that, Wigwam.
