Former President Bill Clinton ask California voters to support California's Proposition 87, during a rally at the University of California Los Angeles (UCLA) campus in Los Angeles Friday, Oct. 13, 2006. Proposition 87 would tax companies drilling for oil in California until it has generated $4 billion. The money would be set aside for loans, grants and subsidies to promote alternative fuels and more energy-efficient vehicles. (AP Photo/Damian Dovarganes)
Yes, the libs have a full-court press on this socialist tax increase. So typical of the radical Marxist left, they want to use this frivolous, so-called, energy tax to build more power into government, without ANY ACCOUNTABILITY for the use of the money...so what is new for the radical left???
No wonder so many of these gutter rats are coming out to try and dupe the voting California public into thinking this is something other than exactly what it is -- well, what is new for the libs, right??? Deceipt, lies and spin -- the basis for liberal reality.
Vote NO ON 87 -- prevent any more confiscatory taxation in California -- all hosted by the frothing, tax-crazy Marxists that the moron left keeps putting back into the state legislature...
Why not tax more until they reach 40 billion?
The more expensive Ca oil is - well you know where I'm going with that, and personally, its fine with me.
Dear CLinton: STFU already.
Sincerely yours,
America
How much did the California Tax Payers pay Bill Clinton for his talk?
We know the guy never goes anywhere without someone paying and picking up the tab.
Who paid and how much?
Just when you thought Kalifornia had thought of every kind of tax imaginable. Unfortunately, it will probably pass. Get a clue, Kalifornia!
It does annoy me that we let the Liberals define our vocabulary. "Energy Independence" is their favorite phrase for "tax us (by way of the oil companies) into poverty".
If we really wanted "energy independence", we'd be drilling in Anwar, CA, the Gulf of Mexico, and in the Atlantic off FL. And we'd be building refineries in various locations.
It's not that we don't have plenty of oil, it's that it's not politically correct to get it or use it.
So, all the libs are complaining about high gas prices and how it's Bush's fault, yet they want to increase gas taxes to make it more expensive, so they can blame that on Bush too?
If the voters pass it, every oil company operating in California needs to leave the state.
I believe Bubba added 8 cents per gallon Fed Tax when he was in office. Obviously, it hurt the poorest and the older folks the most. He could care less. It was more money for the kitty.
