..the very best thing that Republicans can do at this convention is to vote NO on all five of the bond measures that the Governor is supporting this November.

..

The argument against all five bond measures is simple, and is the same. The state government already takes in a mammoth amount of money from taxpayers each year -- the budget this year was well over a HUNDRED BILLION dollars, with state revenues higher than ever in the history of California. Assembly Republicans championed a pay-as-you-go system for using current dollars to pay for infrastructure. That was the right thing to do.

Somehow, it's never enough for some, tho, primarily the socialists ... with a few special interests on the side who want even more more more...

Putting Arnold aside, there are lots of reasons that should motivate everyone to vote in November.
It is time to truly launch that "FEAR" campaign the CAGOP tried in the last November election.

The selection in this election frightens me a whole lot more than last time.
Here are a few that are most prominent in my mind:

• Prop 1A-AE - Unaffordable, pork ridden "infrastructure" Bonds (TAX!)

• Prop 84 - Park Bonds (TAX!)

• Prop 86, 87, 88 - Tax, Tax, Tax

• Jerry Brown as Chief law enforcement officer of California

And on a positive note, the most prominent reasons to vote:

• Tom McClintock!

• Proposition 90 - End eminent domain abuse!
