Bingo. And you can bet the threads in re CA, are going to get more and more vitriolic as "conservatives" stand "appalled" ... "Shocked, I tell you, Shocked" at what all else has to now happen. This isn't a freakin homecoming queen and king contest!!!!!
rant off.
Sadly, it probably wouldn't make it to TV, but I propose a purple finger protest starting right now. Which finger is up to you.
Have you had too much coffee and have gotten too jittery to listen to anybody but your own pre-concieved concockshuns???
It appears you didn't consider one of my carefully chosen words of instruction/correction directed your way in #145! Go back and read it again and LEARN your lesson for the day!!!
Don't just continue pushing the incorrect spin all the rest of the day!!! Take a Valium, or something, for Pete's sake...
You raise a very good point.
What exactly will happen to individual citizens if CA goes bankrupt?
I'm going to dye my first finger purple, down to the knuckle.
When people ask, it will be an opportunity to talk about it right then ~ that we don't appreciate our freedom and must vote liberalism OUT.
But hey, it's evident you must love the sound of your own voice. CLANG-CLANG-CLANG.
Now go put back on your Taco Bell hat and take care of that line, amigo. Customers waiting.
I've seen this. More times than I care to discuss at length. Makes me sick. I used to come up with all kinds of excuses for CA "conservatives". I don't any more.
We have some dumb conservatives here in CA. As you say, some who only believe in the purest views they have. As an ideal, I agree with them, but in practice, every battle is won in steps, not all in one major war or vote.
I am on the same page with you. I believe strongly, fervently in principle. But tactical steps in CA are CRITICAL.
I've seen far too many "conservatives" throw the baby out with the bath water. It's a cryin' shame. And just because one thing didn't go the way they wanted it to. Oh well. At least California still has good weather.
Over a 15 year span, I've watched the liberal "goo" seep. From the SF Bay Area.. watched it begin its creep into Sacramento and around those parts. And you know what? I met people along the way who were content to just pursue their "own life paths" and because they were so bloody sure someone else would do the "work" for them.
You going to sting him if he doesn't?
I should, but even more sinister is if I were to tell his mother how he turned out. She hasn't heard my version yet!!! (grin)
If his momma is in CA, she might kick your stinger right back in and out through and between your wasp-eyes, SierraWasp. Would you rename yourself, SierraRhino? :>
He's actually got a momma??? I was just kiddin, man, honest!!!
"As usual you have offered zero evidence that it was conservatives who didn't show up instead of finger-pointing the finger-to-the-wind/wishy-washy/"moderate"/backstabbing RINO clowns."
Turnout in GOP strongholds was extremely light, except for San Diego County--and their turnout was skewed by the fact that they were voting on a new mayor.
Sorry, you're going to have to do MUCH better than that. Republican turnout does not equate to conservative turnout, nor vice versa.
I've also gotten emails from over two dozen conservative Republicans that said they no-showed in order to cripple Schwarzenegger's re-election campaign next year. That good enough for ya?
Nope. I have no reason to believe a single word you say.
No True Conservative would ever pass on the chance to vote for parental notification for abortion or defund/defang the the left of union money.
The ones who would pass on or thwart such an opportunity would be abortion loving RINOs and RINO union shills. I met a few "Republican" teacher union shills when I was walking precincts.
"Nope. I have no reason to believe a single word you say."
In other words, if you don't like what you hear, you choose to not believe it. If you do like it, you choose to believe it.
Very well. I will now apply that standard to you. I now have every reason to believe that you are a homosexual child rapist. Disprove my belief.
Grow up.
