Watchout for that ol Boogyman... Irrational Exuberance!!!

[DoughtyOne]

Here we are talking about downsizing the state government employees by 33%, and abolishing over 100 commissions, and you call anyone who is glad to hear it, irrationally exhuberant. Just what do you see wrong with restructuring the government downward?

Not Ronald Reagan, George Dukmajian, Pete Wilson or any other California state Governor has proposed this degree of downsizing that I know of, and all you can do is go "ho-hum"? What the hell is wrong with you folks?

"The overall tone and tenor of the performance review is to put more power under the executive branch," said Assembly Speaker Fabian Nunez.

Nunez knew he had to say something cause his phone was ringing off the wall from those who might lose their state positions.

But Arnoold has them in a box, since the budget bill has been passed and he signs it tomorrow, and now he can start cutting and reorganizing and their complaints will be muted.

He is not removing programs , just removing people.....

Hehehehe!!!
