Drunk on our tax money -- tax, tax, tax, spend, spend, spend. LIBERAL CALIFORNIA.
Yes, we must pay for those illegal Mexicans -- very important -- $10 BILLION per year of stolen tax payer dollars which could balance our budget...AND REDUCE TAXES.
Mexifornia is taking good care of its illegals. Taxes and illegals are UP and business futures and road care are DOWN.
-no new taxes, no new borrowing, and the largest single annual increase for the education budget.-
Everyone ("everyone" being a relative term, of course) biting the bullet except education? Typical - problem IS, education's budget is HUGH! To get the largest increase ever is HUGH!
Remember my McClintock 2003 campaign slogan?
"Vote 4 McClintock or Pay$ the Con$equence$"
I won't say "I told you so."
This reminds us why we must hope that the state supreme court reinstates Prop 77: redistricting reform so that the leftists only get the number of seats that they earn. (Currently, they get 54% of the votes statewide but, due to their gerrymandering of districts, end up with nearly 2/3 of the legislative seats.)
Pete Wilson is vilified by many (not me), but he had a Democratic Legislature, and still kept a lid on State Spending.
All the more reason we need to one day have Governor Tom McClintock.
I've been visiting alot of state and local Republican Party sites the last couple weeks and reading various commentaries during those visits. One theme appeared constant, but far from the truth.
As though to shore up support for Governor Schwarzenegger, they are portraying the special election that brought Arnold Schwarzenegger to the governorship as Californians upset over the budget at the time. Nothing could be further from the truth. The voters threw out Governor Grey Davis in the special election because they were extremely angry over the energy crisis we were experiencing. If it were budgetary matters that energized voters, this year's special election would be an easy election to win passage of the budgetary measures up for vote. It's not easy. It's a real battle able to go either way.
I am pretty sure that far northern, or "superior" California would not want to have its water resources drained to the populous southland by vote of an overwhelming majority. We certainly don't share cultuiral values with them. Besides, we have a longstanding arrangement with disaffected conservative rural southern Oregon to form the State of Jefferson. That arrangement has existed since before the bombing of Pearl Harbor. We even have our own flag - a Gold Pan with 2 - Xs (double cross) to represent being double crossed by the State legislature.
I actually have begun to feel sorry for Arnold. I think we all knew what he was in for. I think he thought it would be tough at first. Sadly for him, the interests aligned against him have no idealogical core or value other than win at all costs. They elevate their own selfish desires above what is best for our state.
So we Californians get to look forward to more taxes, more spending and less than ever in return. But at least we can rest at night knowing we're exporting tax dollars to illegals! We're educating the best Mexico has to offer!
Maybe it IS time to move to Nevada. Maybe we can make a last stand in the desert...
