My brother-in-law is cool….

I don’t miss it…..

Of course 99.5% aren’t dead or inheriting an estate from someone who died…. but who’s counting.

Charlie Crist (Republican Gubernatorial candidate) voted AGAINST amendment 3. I didn’t really need another reason not to vote for him (he’s the Attorney General, and he’s a Socialist who prosecutes people for providing supplies to hurricane-ravaged Florida Counties because he thinks they’re charging too much), but his position on amendment 3 certainly makes me feel good about shunning him.

I really hope 3 goes through… this “simple majority” thing is making it too easy for stuff like smoking bans and minimum wage rises to get passed.

What person wouldn’t want more libraries?

Tyrannical, little-ole me, in fact. I am probably more informed than the vast majority of people who bother to spend time in a library. The internet is a remarkable source of information. I voted against 10 out of eleven spending measures in Irving, TX. If all added together, it would probably have been close to $100M (in muni’s) which means taxes, of course. The only one I supported was the spending for police/fire. Unfortunately, they will probably all pass.

Me? I’m headed to Nevada to rent a truck.

I grew up in New Jersey

Really!! What Exit?

In California they are doing an end run around tax restraint laws (prop 13) and putting measures on the ballot that will result in higher taxes, subverting previous tax restraint laws.

IMHO-The process needs to be reformed so that the crooks cannot put bond measures on the ballot to raise taxes. It is out of control in California.

Some examples:
Remember this is where they allowed stem cell research on the ballot and 6 billion Liability to the taxpayers that will only benefit the crooks “researchers” that put it on he ballot to make money because of a Politically Correct issue.

Rob Reiner also was successful in raising taxes on tobacco, Proposition 10 and fleeced tobacco users to support left winged liberal causes. 700 million has been collected. It was supposed to be “for the children”.

The reality, however, is that the massive bureaucracy set in place to spend the tax has not managed to implement any programs during the year in which the tax has been collected

Next March we will be voting to get rid of Prop 10 with Prop 28 and return 700 million to taxpayers. Go figure.

One strongly limits eminent domain for private development, and the other provides a (large) guaranteed funding for teacher salaries (with anual rises linked to the CPI).

There are two initiatives to screw up the vote – the ‘Voter Lottery’ and the ‘Mail-In Ballot Only’ initiatives.
The libs are SO mad that you have to show ID in order to vote in Arizona (a previous Prop 200). They tried to stop it, but it was re-instated just before the election. Too bad, now all the illegals that live here won’t get to vote :(

And the ‘Mail-In Ballot’ – wouldn’t that be ripe for voter fraud. I heard that Oregon voted this in and are having all sorts of problems. Anyone know if this is true or not?

Finally, just what we need – there are enough ‘uninformed’ voters that make their way to the polls (driven by libs, no doubt) to cast a ballot. If the ‘Voter Lottery’ is passed, it will only make it worse.

Pull out the troops.
Raise the minimum wage.
Ban the sale of assault weapons.

Michelle is a Jersey-girl?? I didn’t know that conservatives still inhabited that planet.

The grow up there, and flee in disgust. :P

As a bonus, we vote on 3 Supreme Court justices, two of which were involved in the 2000 election.
