By the time that CA becomes part of Mexico, the legislature will have already adopted the same corrupt, know-nothing style. Good riddance to them. Wonder what they’re gonna do when the high-tech enterprises abandon them?

Hey libs, hows that California embryonic stem cell research institute going? Can paralyzed people walk yet? Have they raised Christopher Reeves from the dead yet? Has that $10 billion been well spent?
Nothing yet?
Then why devise another fantasy rat hole to throw money into.

The money would go to applied research and "green" workforce development Translation: More pork and government jobs. (The "G" in green stands for government.)

The California Air Resources Board is currently concluding economic modeling that would help determine the cost of implementing AB 32, the 2006 legislation that requires the state to cut greenhouse gas emissions to 1990 levels by the year 2020. Doncha love how they decide to work up a cost estimate 2 years after passing that monstrosity? Arnold&Co, Carb, Nunez, and the rest of those crooks belong in jail!
The money, about 12 cents to 20 cents extra per month on the average bill, would go to research into global warming, with grants approved by the CICC's governing board and staff.
Just remember, "It's not a tax!" grrrrr
But lawmakers were suspicious, at least in part because they saw in the CICC a power play engineered by Peevey and his top ally in the Capitol, the governor's chief of staff, Susan Kennedy, a former PUC member.
Who needs enemies when Republican governors hire the likes of Susan Kennedy?
