If you heard someone cheering loudly when the movies "Vanilla Sky," "I Am Sam" and "Training Day" were mentioned at Sunday night's Academy Awards ceremony, it might have been Gov. Gray Davis.
In a pop culture-related announcement that has become increasingly common for the governor, Davis last week congratulated the three films for receiving Oscar bids.

Davis is shameless. He should get an Oscar himself for his role in pretending to be a leader.

Countdown to Davis removal.

I'm no fan of Davis, but the entertainment industry is crucial to California's economy - It's hard to blame the man for supporting one of the states most important business communities.

I am surprised that Gray didn't jump on the stage and say, "I kept the friggin lights on for this show. Where's my applause?"

Can megalomania be treated?The only way to treat megalomania politicians without going to jail for adminstering the treatment, is to vote them out of office.
Just another sad article that means more than ever:
Vote for Simon, the sane one!
To: Grampa Dave
Graydavis has another, "Mussolini moment."
My advice to Gray: Keep it up. Next thing you know, they'll
boot you out and Simon will take office by acclamation......
