It looks like Sen. Carole Migden will likely land on California's high-paying waste commission, after all.
After Senate President Pro Tem Don Perata appointed Sen. Sheila Kuehl to a spot on the $132,178 commission on Tuesday, Capitol Alert has learned that Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger is expected to name the fiery San Francisco Democrat to the final vacancy on the recycling panel.
It is one of the most plum appointments in state government.
On Tuesday, California's two Democratic leaders appointed two of their termed-out colleagues - Kuehl, D-Santa Monica, and Assemblyman John Laird, D-Santa Cruz - to the board.
There remains one vacancy, but only the GOP governor has the power to fill that vacancy.
There is a long tradition of legislative leaders ensuring that termed-out colleagues have a comfortable landing pad when they leave office.
. . . If Migden is appointed, three-fifths of California's current Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender Caucus would then sit on the waste board.

Nazis all.
Once in, never out.
Nazis all.”
One is a Lesbian and the other is a drunk who choses to drive on California roads.
The exact reason America is in dire straights.
Perfect timing...
Because a homosexual thug nutjob is the best qualified, obviously.
I mean, who else could he possibly appoint that would be better? /s
Recycled, fanatical libtards to a high-paying, non-electable post for as long as they want to serve...sounds about right.
Thanks Governator.
I didn't think Migden was termed out. I thought she was beaten by Mark Leno for her seat.
I guess this will help her pay for her driving fines (I mean leukemia treatment).

As often as she is wasted when she drives, I daresay this may actually be an aprropriate appointment.

Phat chance, right? Hay Migden! Good luck on wallowing in waste and that hugely oversized salary you scum sucking piece of pond scum!!!
OBTW...Old Wes is returning as a ASSemblyman next year,,,
Arnold is George Bush light - just as incompetent but with an Austrian accent. All those steroids really messed up his brain. He simply has forgotten what party he belongs to, and even worse, he has forgotten his principles, that is, presuming he ever had any.
That may somehow be appropriate..... but not for such obscene and undeserved salaries.....
Oh well, what’s one more blunder among a virtual blunder blizzard? This clown has turned out even worse than our biggest pessimist could possibly have anticipated.
Arnie mis-read the rules. You’re supposed to appoint someone who knows the subject matter of the board, not someone who IS the subject matter.
ROFL!
