"Yup, Prop. 76 is a RINO sellout, again."

===

Are you calling Tom McClintock a RINO?

"Proposition 76: State Spending. Should government live within its means? YES. This measure restores the authority that the governor of California had between 1939 and 1983 to make mid-year spending cuts whenever spending outpaces revenue without having to return to the legislature."

McClintock strongly opposes Prop 78--you support it.

McClintock strongly opposed Prop 57/58--you supported it.

McClintock voted against the GLBT bills that you think "aren't really important" (e.g. AB 1400 - Civil Rights Act). Just as you ignore the onerous parts of Prop 76, you tried to keep people focused only on Arnold's veto of Gay Marriage, while he passed 6 other Pro-GLBT pieces of legislation. See this post as an example. You then went on to avoid the follow up question, despite posting other questions to me, again trying to change the subject. See Here and Here and Here

In answer to your question, no, Tom McClintock is not a RINO. On most things I agree with him; on others I do not. On Prop 76, I do not. I believe his tepid and limited comment in his endorsement suggests that he may also have some reservations (compare it to his out-and-out campaign for something he passionately disagreed with--Prop 57/58--for which he wrote the ballot arguments).

You supposedly embracing McClintock's position is a self-serving, transparent move of a propagandist. Instead of discussing it, you continue to ignore facts, post deceptive information, or try to change the subject. If Prop 76 is a good law, it should be able to withstand scrutiny.

By the way, you posted more of your deception on Prop 76 HERE, to which I replied HERE, proving you wrong once again. Is that going to be another "Watch FO play cut and run" game, or will you ever respond? One would think the honorable thing to do would acknowledge that you were wrong.
