What the heck is keeping you stuck in California? I mean with nonsense like this being the norm, isn't Texas looking a lot better? :-)
As I recall your family traces its heritage to this part of the country (Oklahoma and Arkansas?). It sure would be good to have you and Free Republic come back to the ancestral home!
On the other hand, if you can fight to restore Reagan-era values, maybe the Golden State can again be golden again.
This is a Federal action, having nothing to do with California politics.
This is not California suggesting this closure, this is YOUR Federal Government.
