Well it’s a thought at any rate.

First: eliminate so-called “tenure”.

Communist teachers can jolly well prove their worth each day at work, just like all the rest of us.

Sounds like this senator is a bit of a communist himself!

Alan Lowenthal, get out of my life!

In the years leading up to 1998, Lowenthal was part of the Long Beach City council which decided that the best use of the land formerly occupied by the U.S. Navy was to hand it over to COSCO (China Overseas Shipping Company.)

As I was in the process of moving from Long Beach to San Pedro in November 1998, he personally appeared at my door asking for my vote for State Assembly. I informed him that I was moving from Long Beach to San Pedro, and he responded that the Assembly District included San Pedro. Sure enough, it was one of those gerrymandered districts with the two cities connected by a small strip of waterfront land. In short, it was “contiguous – at low tide.”

While in the Assembly, he proudly removed the toll from the Vincent Thomas Bridge. That saved me 50 cents on those occasions when I might use the Bridge to visit Long Beach. It also freed the container truck traffic to use my side of town to exit the port.

Term limits got him out of my Assembly seat and into the State Senate. When term limits force him out of the Senate, where will he go? If there’s no political appointment available, he has an open seat at Cal State University Long Beach – that bastion of academia which legitimized a convicted felon turned avowed Marxist, Ron Karenga – an adopted name meaning “nationalist” – and thus gave us a made-up holiday called “Kwanzaa.”

Karenga is now gone from CSULB. Does Lowenthal want to replace him as “House Marxist?” This legislation would guarantee him a lot of freedom.
