Our financial position is worse than it was when he was elected. He has increased total debt 40% and proposes to borrow more with measures hidden within his "live within our means" iniative.
He did about as much as I expected, (better than Davis) and maybe he will start the process of breaking the unions stranglehold over the state. (And I am a former teacher, but the union has to go.)
I frankly think he's worse than Davis, because he has done things that the Republicans in the legislature would never have allowed Davis to do. Even Davis had the sense to veto the Sierra Nevada Conservancy Arnold later signed. Further, Davis and the Democrats would have faced certain defeat in 2006 and likely from a conservative Republican. Now, with Arnold taking the blame for similar policies, we may not only not have a conservative in 2006 but may either lose then or get a Democrat in 2010. Meanwhile, Arnold promotes fellow RINOs within the GOP while new conservative prospects take a back seat.
Leftist policies breed socialist dependants.
Thanks for the update, I though the governator was doing better for the State. Well, thats why I left for Alabama. (Although Rileys not that great a prise either.)
So he wants to promote worthless supplements in the schools while banning junk food.
Being a kid just ain't as fun as it used to be.
The indiscriminate use of the term "food supplements" would have had a disastrous effect on the only path to real health that exists. It would have left us at the mercy of the AMA quacks that get rich distributing the most dangerous poisons available: Prescription Drugs.
No he's not and neither are you. A quick check of American's life expectancy tables will prove that theory way off the deep end!!! (sorry to disagree with you. I'm trying not to be disagreeable, however cause you're a good person and Freeper)
