May 7, 2009 (LPAC) – Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s alliance with California Republican Rep. Darrell Issa, to derail efforts to have a Pecora Commission-type investigation of systemic fraud by Wall Street insiders, is one more example of her long-term protection of the corrupt networks associated with former VP Dick Cheney. It was Issa who was the money-bags behind the recall of former California Democratic Governor Gray Davis in 2003, which catapulted the steroid-popping Hollywood celebrity freak Arnold Schwarzenegger into the position of Governor of California.

Following the deregulation of electricity in California in 2000, the Bush-Cheney-allied Enron led a cabal of energy pirates in a vicious assault on citizens of the state, jacking up utility prices by as much as 1000%, with tactics which included illegal shutdowns of power generators during periods of peak use, ultimately costing the state government and its citizens upwards of $70 billion. After a prolonged period of indecision, Gov. Davis, under prodding by LaRouche Democrats, finally took on this cabal, only to run into a determined effort, led by Cheney, to defend Enron. During the height of the crisis, Cheney was meeting with the very firms looting the state, though he asserted the right to protect them, insisting he had no legal obligation to reveal which firms were meeting with his “energy task force,” in private strategy sessions. When this was later cited by Rep. Kucinich and others as a basis for possible impeachment of Cheney, Pelosi repeatedly intervened, insisting that impeachment is “off the table.”

As the possible bankruptcy of California loomed, following the electricity deregulation debacle, Rep.Issa, who is a millionaire from his previous incarnation as a car alarm magnate (and whose brother was arrested for stealing cars!), ponied up a large contribution, to fund the petition drive to place the recall of Davis on a special election ballot. Though he initially announced that he would run to replace Davis, were he to be recalled, Issa later withdrew, throwing his support – and money – behind the candidate backed by fascists George Shultz and Pete Wilson, Arnold Schwarzenegger. Though then-Senator Hillary Clinton, former Texas Gov. Ann Richards, and Lyndon LaRouche, among others, made prominent appearances during the recall to defend Davis against the dirty trick run by Shultz and Cheney, it was evident that many Democrats, such as the Kennedy networks and Pelosi, were involved in backing Schwarzenegger, whose subsequent administration has plunged California into a much more profound crisis than that which led to the recall of Davis.

Pelosi’s act of sabotage, in collaboration with Rep. Issa, against the bipartisan efforts of Senators Dorgan and McCain, and Michigan Democrat Dingell of the House, to set up a Select Committee to investigate financial fraud, modeled on the Pecora Commission of 1932-3, confirms, in the words of Lyndon LaRouche, that she is still nothing but an “infamous Cheney-ac.” He added that her presence as Speaker represents an extreme danger to the nation, and her retirement is long overdue – and she should take Arnold with her.

We’re going to get scrambled eggs at best.

The Drudge headline that JJ Puma mentioned is pretty stunning. So, is intro teaser: Emotions may yet save the economy . . .

Guess that explains the happy, double talk. Makes my head hurt!
