The designated creature is Augustynolophus morrisi, which, according to a bill signed Saturday by Gov. Jerry Brown, is “a unique dinosaur that has only been found in California.”

Exactly what I was thinking when I heard about it on the radio news this morning. Although with the political climate in Caliph-phony-a, I can think of a few other candidates:
  1. "Free" Speech
  2. Traditional Family Values
  3. English as the "official" language
  4. The Republican Party

Nailed it on the first post BigEdLB. I do have to admit though, the Pelosi offerings were as solid, and I didn't even think of that.

FReepers! I've truly found a home... LOL

It’s been a long while (since before Selena Gomez was on it), but I believe he was a Texas dinosaur.

I knew this had to be the number one comment (if not, then a certain senator . . . )
