Yes California voters and while your at it perhaps you all should cancel your subscriptions to the SacBee if anyone still has one.

What now Sac-O- Bee? How about cutting state salaries and pensions by 10% accross the board?

Then, we can go after the illegals.

See Sac-O-Bee? Problem solved.

There is little hope that CA can cut the spending fast enough to keep up with the declining tax revenues. With car sales down by nearly 50%..and that is a big earner of sales tax and no capital gains tax coming in..they are in a world of trouble.
They will be headed to DC looking for another hand out.

Hey Clymers--let us vote on throwing the State into bankruptcy and voiding all of the union contracts. Oh, and vote on drug testing for welfare recipients. Oh, how about no social services and welfare for illegals? Oh, can we have another 'fit' and vote on requiring voter ID?

FU Sac Bee. *spit*

This last line from the article CLEARLY states the problem:

“You asked for this job. Now you’ve got it, so get on it. Oh, and remember. The entire nation is watching to see how you do now that you’re in charge.”

You see, government has forgotten who is the employer. WE THE PEOPLE are. Until they see and understand that, I have a feeling that revolution is a-”brewing” (as in TEA PARTIES)!

Elections have consequences....

As long as we allow the ethnic group "Deadbeat-Americans"'s vote to count as much as productive Americans, America will continue the downhill slide to Zimbabwe status.

Just the simple act of requiring a potential voter to show a picture ID and a current tax return showing that some amount of tax was paid would be a positive step in the right direction.

You could do just a little editing to this article and have it apply perfectly to every one of those Americans who voted for ‘change’ last November.

The Voters in California DID their job.

Their NO votes were a rebuke to California politicians for those politicians trying to pass the buck to them, instead of them, the politicians, making the hard decisions they were elected to do.

The very purpose of the propositions was an attempt by the political class to help them avoid having to themselves take the hard decisions they are supposed to take, as is their responsibility to the offices they were elected to.

California’s voters should now vote out-of-office EVERY incumbent elected official in the state - reject the entire political class, en mass.

Another day another Bee employee tantrum. Cute.

These are the best and brightest Bee brains who opined within hours of 9/11/2001 that we shared the blame for the attacks. We do not try to "understand" the rest of the world and the attacks delivered that message.

Within weeks of 9/11 the publisher of the Bee was booed off the stage at a local university because of her outbursts against President Bush and Att. Gen. Ashcroft. She condemned them in defense of suspected terrorists.

1960s Alinsky street rabble and their ideological issue do not like dissent now that they feeeeeeeeel that they are the "Establishment."

Good morning, California voters. Do you feel better, now that you've gotten that out of your system?

Reminds me of Peter Jennings' retort that "America threw a temper tantrum" when they voted the GOP into control of Congress in 1994.

So, now that you've put those irksome politicians in their place, maybe it's time to think about this: Since you're in charge, exactly what do you intend

We always were in charge. We had just delegated some authority to some worthless politicians and are now letting them know that their propositions are not acceptable.

What we want is a reduction in government spending, and no we do not mean letting the criminals out of prison and firing the policemen.

The people generated propositions passed such as Prop 13, prop 87, prop 8.
Legislative sponsored props are what has increased the costs to the state. The chicken poop legislators know they can’t get these spending measures passed, so push it off as propositions. They twist words, mislead, and lie, but hey, all’s fair. Reap what you sow.
State employees earn more than they are worth and retire on golden nests. Civil servants earning more than private sector doesn’t work. Time to come back to reality.

What is the age of this “editor”? 10 years or less? God, how infantile. But then, “it” is a Liberal. So, no surprise.
