“I seem to remember it was one of the BROWNS in CA who botched that up - either father or son...”
It was Jerry The Fairy’s dad, “Pat” Brown. He was even goofier than Jerry has turned out to be. It’s small wonder California is where it is today. Collectively, “The Brown’s” ( That’s the if it’s brown, flush it Browns) have been governors for TWENTY-FOUR EFFING YEARS! Worse yet, when you add in Gray Davis tenure (he was Jerry The Fairy’s Chief of Staff) who was governor for four years before being the first governor in history to face a recall. So in sum, we’ve had 28 years of The Browns.”
Then to cap it off, we elected that feckless turd Arnold The Awful Schickelgruber, who’s only claim to fame for eight years was knocking up his Mexican maid.
“”Arnold The Awful Schickelgruber””
Lived in CA for all of that (’57 -2006) but finally retired and got out....lots of battles in those years - some we won; some we lost.
Well remember the beating I took on FR for NOT backing Arnold and supporting McClintock.
