Schwarzenegger Ignores the Majority to Sign Out-of-State Same-Sex Marriage Bill

A seventeen year old government student asked for my time after class yesterday, confused and frustrated with California’s politics. I don’t blame him, as I have often wondered living on the “Left” coast, if my voice and vote will ever count. This young man, after researching a current event for class, was angry when he [...]

Thomas Frank’s “mysterious freedom physics” explained

By Russ Cote
As if almost on cue, RedState explains the Law of Politcial Motion to Thomas Frank in the context of the California Public Employee Retirement System (CALPers).
Now, I understand that the disaster looming in California is exactly what kooks like Frank want to happen to the Country at large, so I’m not speaking to [...]

Hedging Your Bets

The biggest question in everyone’s mind is, what comes next and how do I not only survive, but thrive? We, as a population, have begun to figure out that the change we voted for is seriously upon us. Change brings instability, and instability brings opportunity for significant gain and loss. We are in unstable times [...]

Chad Groening – OneNewsNow – 8/4/2009 6:40:00 AM
An English language advocacy organization is praising the decision of a California appeals court, which upheld the right of the state to administer academic achievement tests and high school exit exams only in English.
Last week, the First District Court of Appeals in San Francisco rejected arguments that [...]

“We Rescued the Economy”

What a difference a Marxist makes.

By Russ Cote

The hypocrisy isn’t new. The equation of terrorism to talk radio isn’t new. What seems new is an increasingly disturbing sense of entitlement amongst, mostly, Democratic lawmakers. The genesis of this sense of entitlement is beyond the scope of this article, but it seems to me to be a combination of the general leftward shift in political class thinking toward soft tyranny and the election of Barack Obama. I’m not saying Obama is to blame-lord knows Harry Reid, . .

Obviously cap and trade is horrendous and that they’re even considering it is a true testament to how awful our Congressional leaders are. I think, though, that cap and trade is so horrible in so many ways that it’s overwhelming to think of it all. Today I’d just like to focus on [...]

Governor Schwarzenegger, Rape is Rape

By Dr. Jack Cashill A female sailor, 18 years-old, leaves her ship in the East Bay and takes the BART into San Francisco. She meets up with a friend, and they go to the Palladium, a co-ed dance club for the under-25 set.
Like many sailors before her, male and female, this one has had too much to drink. She has gotten separated from her friend so she sits at a table by herself and watches the dancers.
An older gentleman, mid-50s with a charming Spanish accent, sits down at the same table. He is with two women. They leave, and he sidles over next to her.
The man’s interest in her seems entirely fatherly. And she, away from home for the first time, naïve and a little lonely, welcomes his conversation.

Summertime, Summertime, Sum, Sum, Summertime

By: Theosebes

Reading, writing and arithmetic will be taking their summer break in a few weeks time. California teachers specifically may be looking for places to teach the “Three R’s” due to the inability of the State Legislature to do the needed reading, writing and arithmetic required of California school children, in the jobs they were elected to do.

Fortunately the voting population of California was able to handle the verbiage in the propositions and crunch the numbers in a realistic manner, in order to send a message to Sacramento that the fools are not the voters of California, but the members of the State Legislature who seem unable to do basic math while trying to hide this inability to balance a budget in flowery, legal language.

Though the California budget is complicated, the idea that cutting waste and spending is not.

The Problem of Government Expansion

By Laura Adelmann
As General Motors entered bankruptcy to trim its girth in the hope that it will survive to build happy environmentally friendly cars that no one wants, President Obama claimed 60% of the shares of GM stock for the government. Obama described this move as temporary and expressed, yet again, his reluctance to [...]
