Well, we can then convince of our ways from here, then send them back to America. | ||

I'm tired so I may not have phrased it well but what I was getting at is the idea that we want a government just big enough to fit in your bedroom. Either way, I'll have more thoughts on it and what we do about the Latino vote tomorrow. I really am going to be this time.  | ||

It amazes me that Jews support Barack Obama. That'd be like if Southerners voted for Abraham Lincoln. Failure to recognize the enemy. Conservative nutjobs are the best.

Hm my bedroom's quantum state could hold quite a lot of mass in it, technically. I guess you want an incredibly large governement. | ||

'highest taxes in the nation' doesn't mean quite much. And tax revenue as a % of GDP is actually not the highest in the nation - it's middling. Prop 13 really screws our chances to create a sensible budget. We are still doing the high speed rail thing. It's costing us 375 million per year in debt service payments which could have been used to cover most or all of the UC's budget gap. Yet another example of the legislature wasting money. Tax rates do matter when you're competing for business with 49 other states. There's a reason why we're losing people and companies to other states. | ||

Republican party like the democratic party refined itself many many times over the years about every 20 30 years there is a change in platform although not usually drastic. | ||
