One Chance to Kill SB60 (Illegal Drivers Licenses), Says McClintock (CA FReeper Alert, PLEASE READ)

Okay, a little voice told me to put up this thread...
Since I heard Sen. McClintock explain this plan twice in two days, during two different radio station interviews, I thought it would be a good idea to synopsis it. (I think is an excellent idea.)

As we have all pretty much figured, the way to do something about the passage of the illegal alien driver's license law, which will be signed any moment by our traitorous, corrupt governor, lies in our "ruby slippers," our wonderful referendum process. According to McClintock, the California Republican Assembly (a group which endorsed him, and the largest of its kind in California), already is buzzing about a plan to challenge the new law "once Davis's pen hits the paper." I have already checked their website and found nothing as of yet; however, McClintock says as soon as he has more information it will be linked on his website. (Let's keep watching for this.)

Here's how it would work. Signatures on petitions would be gathered as with the recall; however, the good news is that he said only a relatively small number would be required. (Off the top of his head, McClintock didn't know the exact amount, but he thought only about 1/4 or 1/5 the amount required for the recall. It should be a lead pipe cinch to get this on this one, IMHO.)

Of course, the signatures need to be collected in the proper, legal manner - I don't have the details to post at this time, but we can get that info readily - and then appropriately forwarded. The good news, according to Sen. McClintock, is that as soon as they are collected and forwarded as required by law, this ridiculous new law MUST BE IMMEDIATELY STAYED UNTIL THE NEXT SCHEDULED ELECTION. That would be MARCH 2004 if we can get the signatures quickly enough. And remember, this idiotic law doesn't go into effect until Jan. 1, 2004. Wouldn't it be wonderful if we could beat it to the punch entirely? Does anyone seriously have any doubts we'd knock this thing out in a referendum election?

Another thing, he mentioned that the CA Republican Assembly is not only talking about a referendum, but a possible lawsuit. He didn't give any more detail than that, though...this is all just at the beginning stages, naturally.

Anyway, I thought we could all use a little hope and a positive outlet for our righteous anger. We need to stick together and work positively to show these idiots that this is still OUR STATE, not theirs!

Go hold hands with Tempest. You two can throw all the temper tantrums you want. Throw yourself on the floor, scream and kick.

It ain't working no more. Now leave the grown-ups alone. We have work to do.

You're going to take me down, Republicans? Okay, then I'm going to see to it that before I'm thrown out, every illegal immigrant in the state will be a registered Democratic voter!"

I think you are absolutely right, and, frankly, I think this man belongs in jail. What he has done is CRIMINAL.

Throw yourself on the floor, scream and kick.

What, and horn in on your action? Go ahead - you do the "4 year old denied a treat in a supermarket checkout line" thing so well on your own.

[truthkeeper]

It's okay, it all stopped a while ago. Happily, everyone seems willing to abide by the truce, so far. We have to hang together or we'll all hang separately!

[strela]

Now go away. We're busy here saving our State.

ROFL!

Sorry, we have latecomers to the thread. No egging on folks, please? Let's keep the thread proactive. Many thanks.

I will collect signatures. I know a few people I can get to sign.

I am from Oregon and I want to sign it. If you didn't know already, illegal aliens can get a license without much trouble here in Oregon.

This is the kind of thing that is right up John and Ken's alley. John and Ken led the "SUV movement" last summer. They were instrumental in leading the three strikes law some years ago (after Polly Klaas). The thing is, though, we should have ONE representative try to contact them vs. a whole slew of people calling.

Get me some petitions in Spanish, I'll get the new illegal non-citizen voters to sign it...

McClintock is going to do three things if he stays in this race...

1) Lose. BIG!

2) Kill his political career. And rightfully so.

3) Be responsible for the loss of a SURE thing for the second time in a year.

For a guy who wants to unite everyone, you and others seem to go out of your way to post purposefully infamatory and idiotic messages to absolutely INSURE that wedges are driven.

What's your real game?

Count me in!

Get me some petitions in Spanish, I'll get the new illegal non-citizen voters to sign it...

ROFL. Good...and get 'em each to sign at least twice.

I'm sure they will register at least twice, they will be democrats...

VERY valuable post. Thank you!

If it can work, I'm there.

I turned on Channel 4 and the reporter on the scene was talking about how this was being done on a Friday to avoid the slowest day of the week tomorrow and be forgotten.

This will be forgotten like the Paul Wellstone memo-rally was "forgotten."
