Sacramento BEE ^ | 7/19/05 | Kevin Yamamura

Posted on 07/19/2005 2:23:07 PM PDT by SierraWasp

Auburn Vice Mayor Mike Holmes wants to expand stem cell research. He backs American troops but believes the United States entered Iraq under false pretenses and should leave as soon as possible. He supports abortion rights.

And he's a Republican.

Any reason to think that the man has a basis for challenging Doolittle? Lotsa cash? Otherwise I'd think he falls neatly into the category of crackpot challenger.

I refuse to register for the SuckBee. I've never heard of this guy, but I can't see that the vice-mayor of Auburn is gonna carry a lot of sway.

The guy sounds like a screaming lefty. Whose idea of a 'moderate' is that?

Nice tagline! You know what that is! But I'll stand by and let him answer. If you ask me, (and, of course you din't) they're a "lana" group who think government should be run by whim and if necessary, by mob rule as long as they're the mob that rules!!!

Well, it's the County Seat (It's a five holer) and there's another weekly rag called the Auburn Sentinal that is published by Janice Forbes who calls herself a Republican who suffers from an advanced case of left-wing GANG-GREEN, just like our Governator!!!

She's a big Sierra Clubber, or I should say Sierra Flubber and prolly agrees that Hetch-Hetchy should be drained and a lot of other insane insanity like that!!!

No one in their right mind would call that a moderate. A moderate is a leftist, trying to fly under the radar that they are somehow "mainstream" and therefore wiser than us criminal conservatives who are actually committed to originalism, or traditional Americanism, believing that America's founding documents are second only to scripture in being written by men, inspired by God!

And I'm not a bible thumper, or holly roller by any stretch of the imagination! I haven't been a member of ANY orginized religion in over 42 years! But I believe in America and I believe in God.

I do NOT put any stock in "moderates" as they are neither hot, nor cold, but lukewarm and sickening like a pitcher of warm SPIT!!! AND I DON'T WANT ANOTHER ONE OF THESE SITTIN ON THE SCOTUS, GEORGE!!!

I don't know it, but I wouldn't doubt it! Just heard a Pacific Legal Foundation person on Mark Williams show on KFBK say so very distrubing things about the new Supreme Court Nominee and protecting individual's property rights.

He's evidently argued just a little too strongly for TRPA's statist position against people being able to do things with their property that government isn't fond of!!! This conservative doesn't like that at all and finds it disconcerting!!!

I know you're being facietious as I think you've heard the story of the Widow Suitum being unable to even get into court against the seige of TRPA on her property rights until the Supremes finally said she could through the arguments of the PLF.

The old man died before he could even get in front of a judge in the USSA to built a structure on his long held land. Said structure aka "improvements" in R.E. law!!! I relate this for the benefit of lurkers as I know you are already well aware...

I'm not sure what that has to do with Janice Forbes and the vice-mayor of Auburn, but OK.

It has to do with counting on Republicans to not be holding hands with the opposition under the danged table!!! If one enrolls in a partisan organization... ACT LIKE YOU BELONG TO IT!!!

At least abide by it's principles and platform, for Pete's sake!!! Stealth leftists aren't welcome in "right" thinking circles... THAT IS ALL!!!
