No wonder Cal has no budget and the people have no jobs.

I am not sure who we should blame for this one, our greenwashed governor or our no oversight legislature.

According the the Sacrament Bee, the State of California is in danger of losing tens of millions of dollars in unspent energy stimulus funding.

Eight months after California was awarded $226 million in federal stimulus money to boost energy efficiency and renewable energy programs, it has failed to spend any of the cash and risks losing it, the state auditor charged Tuesday.

I don't know about the rest of you, but the excuses sound pretty lame to me.  They can't spend the money because they don't have any controls. Maybe they don't have the controls because they don't have the budget? My God, the Republicans Win again.

When will we make competence a criteria for keeping your job?  Probably never.
