I would celebrate the depopulation if it weren't for the flipside....

The Kelo v. New London decision turned your property ownership from alloidal title into a mere revocable leasehold.

Good line. I'm going to borrow it freely!

Yes, and calcowgirl found some very troubling history of how Hiram Johnson screwed the CAGOP without any lovin whatsoever, almost like Earl Warren did after he became Chief Justice... And worst of all, Shifty Schwartzy thinks he's the reincarnation of both of 'em!!! (and on that I agree with him)(and it really makes him suck canal water between levee bondage)

Ya mean like this one?

Los Angeles Times*, Jun 22, 1928; pg. 1

So far from aiding Hoover or maintaining "party harmony," The Times believes that any deal between Republicans and this notorious traitor to the party will do more to damage Republicanism and its candidate, not only in California but elsewhere, than any other single mistake which could be made. Any effort, passive or active, calculated to delude the rank and file of the party into the belief that Johnson, who so often has betrayed them, has suddenly become a fit object for their support, would be, an act of treachery comparable only to Johnson's own black record of political betrayals during the past eighteen years.

See also here and here.

*The Los Angeles Times was a right-wing publication at this time.

Actually, FairOpinion, this is brilliant:

The two men have separate campaign arms, but "they are running as a de facto ticket," said GOP consultant Kevin Spillane.

Strategically very smart.

I checked out my old working class neighborhood with the homes now selling for $5k+ months back, and sure enough.. a zillion sex-offenders living in the area -- 1/2 mile would move them out of that child-centered neighborhood. Good!

We had the voters vote no on a similiar prop up here in the wine country.

The local fishwrap, the super rich vineyard liberals, the enviral group and their dumbed down voters made basically the same prop appear to be an expensive and evil prop for tax payers.

The smaller vineyard owners, ranchers, farmers and people like us were made to look like the villians. It was very scary. Anyone who believed in the rights of the property owners was portrayed as people who would destroy the beautiful valley.

I'm sure the same lies, spin and BS will be used against the state wide prop.

I agree with him on Props 83, 85 and 90. However, I recommend a NO vote on ALL the bonds and tax hikes.

BTTT from an already-overtaxed Californian. We've had it!

You can go to the bank with that one.

Thanks for the ping. It is my practice to vote NO on all bond issues, no matter what they say they're for. I will never vote to raise my own property taxes. If they want the money so bad, let them get it legitimately, by direct taxation.

And that alone is sufficient reason to vote no IMO.

Oh good! You saw this post. I just noticed that I hadn't responded to your post #17 about Prop 1A (Sorry about that). Prop 1A sounds good on the surface, but the devil is in the details (as usual).
