Vote “NO” on Prop 1A thru 1F! Send a real wake-up call to the Dummycrats that run the State.
God forbid they might actually have to balance their budget with spending cuts.
So goes California, so goes the country....
Like clockwork...they always threaten critical services, but never a word about cutting wacked out environmental agencies and other regulatory commissions whose only purpose is to make life more difficult than it needs to be. Cynical bastards, let 'em sweat.
It'll be a free-for-all, that's for certain: A mad scramble to try to make good when there's nothing in the state wallet, and all these dishonorable slugs squirming as they try to decide who not to offend.
So proud to say the El Hubbo and I have TWO sons voting this time around - we have doubled ourselves, not to boast but to rejoice. As far as I know we are all voting “no” all the way down the line. McClintock recommends a couple of yes votes, but I don’t know that we’re sold on that.
“Deep cuts in school and law enforcement budgets,”
Right. Nowhere to cut but cops, teachers and firefighters. The state government is lean and mean,

Here’s the appropriate “Plan B”...
1. Vote No on all six propositions
2. Force California to declare bankruptcy
3. Invalidate all state employee union contracts
4. Move from defined benefit pensions to defined contribution pensions
5. Set the level of contributions at what we can afford
6. Reduce the CA budget to a more manageable level (say $100B/year). That’s a 30% reduction.
7. Problem solved.
SCREW the DEMOCRATICALLY controlled Legislature in Kalifornia. Get rid of the Democrats here—that goes for all the City representatives as well they are all liberal here and they need to go!!!!!!!!!!!!! This means you Brandte Grotte-Jack matthews—Sue Epstein-—Fred Hasson
The Word is NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO just keep saying it.
California voters should drop a fiscal bomb. The legislature, public employee unions, environmentalists, numerous special interests, and illegal alien lobby are out of control. The train wreck must be stopped now before it is even worse later.
???
So, the 2009 and 2008 budgets are less than the 2007 budget?
Or is this just another lie?
No, the only ugly option is to confiscate money from people who actually work for a living to give to freeloaders and parasites.
Voting NO across the board here.
