Just watched the votes in State Assembly, the demRats are doing their darndest to get the road paved for the VLF increases. It is a sad thing to watch when govt runs amuck. Oropeza and Kuehl, 2 pathetic politico operatives are jamming it to the taxpayers of California. The Republicans are being ridiculed for not getting with the program... or should I say pogrom?

The Republicans should maintain a very low profile. Let the Democrats make the decisions that will infuriate voters.

Actually, Tom McClintock told Roger Hedgecock that if the CA dems pass the car fee increase, the GOP will immediately legislate for a referendum which would put the measure on the ballot.

Sooooo ... let the dems raise the car fee again ... the GOP will get it on the ballot and defeat it AGAIN!!

The thing is the Democrats are trying to tie the hands of a governor of their own party and saddle him with a tax increase they're themselves unwilling to cast an up or down vote on. I hope this obnoxious scheme of theirs to increase the car tax is headed for a swift veto but in the event it isn't, Republicans should immediately move to put it to a referendum. Trust me when the voters see how much more they have to pay to keep their cars and trucks on the road, it'll go down to a walloping defeat. The Democrats are hankering to increase the car tax because they refuse to acknowledge that we in California have a spending and not a revenue problem.
