And he let out a whole bunch of "polluting" CO2 while he was running his mouth.:)

As a proud Arnold supporter, I have to admit he's gone wrong with this selection. Appointing reasonable Democrats (who are few and far between) is acceptable. Appointing a divisive extremist who chooses to pick fights with the federal government rather than work constructively towards solutions is a bad idea. If it's not too late, Arnold should reconsider and move one of the two Republican deputies to the top job.

"Appointing reasonable Democrats (who are few and far between) is acceptable. "

In California, there aren't any 'reasonable Democrats'.

There were a few left in Georgia and Alabama, but Barbara Boxer, DiFi, Hillary, Ted Kennedy, and Chuck Schumer pretty much ran all of them out.

Any 'reasonable Democrat' left the party and either retired or became Republicans sometime during the last 5 years. All that's left is treasonous pieces of trash like Jay Rockefeller, Dick Durbin, Tom Daschle, and Arlen Spectre. (Whoops, my bad, AS is a Pubbie)

The last 'reasonable Democrat' I can remember was Sam Nunn and he had the decency to retire.

Anyone who has lived in California very long understands the key role environmental regulation has had in precipitating traffic problems, the power crisis, unaffordable housing, manufacturing bussinesses running for their lives, high gasoline prices... Really, there isn't a facet of life into which such regulations don't reach.

Arnold told you this is what he would do in his environmental plan. Maybe now you'll read it for what it portends. I suggest going over the whole thread (especially this post), and then, to complete an understanding on environmentalism, the power crisis, and Arnold's friends, reading this post on a thread discussing how Arnold wants to reinstitute electrical price deregulation.

When people, especially moderates, are confronted with a hard choice, that choice becomes paradoxically easier. Such is a choice between a conservative and a liberal. Between a conservative and a moderate (as Davis was believed to be), a conservative loses. Between a conservative and a leftist, as Bustamante is and Davis is now exposed to be, a conservative wins, especially amid the wreckage of leftist governance.

That is why it was so evil for the Republican Party to run a supposedly moderate candidate against Bustamante and against their own principled candidate. That candidate is a statist, an anathema to everything for which the party supposedly stands but upon which the leadership depends for the cash flow with which it funds its continuing feckless hegemony. Our protagonist, being an actor, needed only packaging, and a selective message to each divided constituency. Who cares if they are mutually exclusive messages? Just win baby.

Win what? With that philosophy in charge, the corporate and legal feeding frenzy that is destroying this state will continue. The only blessing is that conservatives won't take the blame.

Of course, FairOpinion will tell you that running CAL-EPA is just window dressing. She's dead wrong.
