Seems to me that all is not well in the 'land of fruits and nuts'???????
California GOP was already in trouble. We dont even have a Grade A electable candidate for US Senate.
OK, then you can write a letter to Arnold:
Dear Arnold,
You are a RINO and I don't like you, and wouldn't vote to support you in any way.
I am writing to encourage you not to grant Tookie clemency, nor to appoint the radical gay activist to your staff.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
inquest
Who said I would never vote for or support him in any way? If instead I wrote "I think you're the greatest and would vote for you no matter what", he'd still be just as likely to ignore it, because reprieving Tookie or not reprieving him would have no effect on whether or not I'd vote for him. Politicians pay attention to votes they perceive as conditional, not unconditional (in either direction).
Well .. it's not helping me in deciding how to vote.
Attention Arnoldbots that ignored our warning: 
Things were really starting to slow down here on the ol FR ranch over the past couple of years until Harriet and the Special CA election happened! Then BANG!!! FReepers suddenly came to life and like my old Pennsylvannia Dutch grandma used to say... "They suddenly got all het up!"
One of the biggest differences I've noticed between Dems and Repubs is that, Repubs think an election actually resolves issues and go right back to sleep as soon as the polls close. Dems never sleep.
I thought you might have noticed that too, having finally changed alliances not too long ago.
The Dems and Union goons are highly skilled at shifting attention during campaigns and elections from the issues, into making the opposing leader "The Issue!" They did this so well with Arnold that it discouraged plenty of voters across the spectrum from going to the polls to help this demonized individual because it just seemed that the whole thing was all about Arnold and this wasn't even a good action movie!!!
So they just fergotaboutit!!! You had them confused with somebody that actually gave a dang!!! (ElkGroveDan already explained some of this to you 4 hours ago but you just won't listen to those in the know!!!)
For one "the party" doesn't put up initiatives. Groups and interests do. However since you asked, Prop 73 will be back. Now quicher bellyaching.
Ok, since you want to blame "the people," lets get right down to who's fault this really is, ok?
It's you! You have been staying home and not doing like a lot of Demo activist do and plot and scheme 24/7/365 and make political action your personal way of life as if you very being depended upon it! You haven't gone to every city council and county board of supervisors and planning commission and transportation commission and transit authority and LAFCO and fire board and water distric board meeting and taken to the podium during the required "Public Comment" period to pursuade with your rhetoric!!!
You've failed to file to run for any of these local government board seats and have never really paid your dues in any meaningful way as a CA citizen, other than maybe pay some taxes in a extra good year, right?
Now before you get all huffy at me, I can say these things because I HAVE done them!!!
Oh, and I forgot ...go to all the "cause meetings" where one must organize and prepare to fight other political activists, oh and the Republican Central committee meetings... There's so many I can't remember them all even though I did 'em all!!!
WAIT!!! I forgot all the campaign organizational meetings of all your friends running for offices that you MUST serve in order to get reciprocity, y'know...
Well, I was never truly allied with my former "alliance." LOL. Just registered that way when I was very young. Other than frequent griping about "the government" regardless of party in power, I was not all that politically active until der schlickmeister came along. I think he made a lot of us mostly silent types come out of hiding.
The Democrats in my family were rare as hen's teeth, but my coal miner's daughter wife from the Ozarks has a family just loaded with traditional Demos and Union members who are downright conservative in most regards! Harry Truman and FDR and Jack Kennedy Democrats to be sure!!!
Now when JFK was POTUS, I din't like his ways one bit, but now-a-days when I see what the current crop of Demonicrat fanatics are doin and sayin, I think JFK woulda been a way better Republican than any old Arnold SchwartzenRenegger!!!
So whata ya think about that???
My support is consistent. I will support conservative and other actions I find positive for the state, whether they are promoted by Arnold, or someone else. My principals and beliefs don't change based on who is in office.
Ain't that the truth? Great observation.
Homosexual Agenda Ping. Plus RINI ping.
Isn't it special? The supposedly Republican Governor appoints a career Democrat pro-abortion lesbian activist who [sic] married her homosexual sex partner as his Chief of Staff and claims there is no light between them. They see things eye to eye.
Nausea.
Freepmail me and DirtyHarryY2K if you want on/off this pinglist.
(okay, that's it for now... pinging later on maybe if warranted.)
And this is surprisng how? Arnold is also to married to a liberal Kennedy.
This is exactly why I voted for McClintock --- not Ah-nold.
As far as the lesbian/gay comments (above) go: This is the repeatedly-pathetic side of Free Republic. On-and-on about homos. Folks, get a life. Who CARES about gays vs straights. What a bunch of prying busybodies Freepers are, on this issue. I think they ARE gay, so preoccupied are they by it. It's ridiculous.
