Does CA actually need a “Commission on the Status of Women”?

I’ve read that all these unelected, unaccountable boards and commissions are a peculiar affliction of CA.

The California Coastal Commission being the most egregious example.

WTH? Females use more healthcare than males and are more likely to go on to higher ed.

Ahnuld has been a complete and total disaster.

Well, Ahnold couldn't name her "Czarina of MILF'S" , so he went with that alternative.

The Feds won’t be happy until the unemployment rate for men in California is 100% (except for illegals of course). Look around your workplace, tally the ratio of men:women and post it here.

How about a commission on the status of my wallet.
Geena can buy lunch and show off her legs while I drool.

"Davis eventually graduated with a bachelor's degree in drama from Boston University in 1979."

This really qualifies her for this. ;-)

California, where state gubamint is nothing more than a cancerous by-product of liberalism to excess.

“I voted for him - twice. :(”

And tell me, what other choice did you have?

At least half of the people I’ve voted for during my entire life I didn’t think were worth spit. I only voted for them because the alternative was even worse!

Ya think this panel would advocate for Sarah Palin? She most definitely is a woman, so says grandpa, but I don’t think they are all encompassing in their advocacy.

I resent the fact that we women are considered so “helpless,” so “special,” so much of a “problem,” such “victims” that we need a special commission just for us.

Hey...don’t do me any favors!

Laura Ingraham ran an interview regarding the environment with Davis not too long ago; Davis is a moron.

Arnold has just been trying to get back into Hollywood’s good graces, so he can resume his acting career.
