a pox on all other 49 states.
you laugh and call us crazy for trying to recall our govenor....
then you offer up pity and a bit of sorrow when you hear of the costs for registration and gas......
just wait, after all the excitement goes away and we get OUR state back you'll all want to visit, vacation and maybe even move out here....:p
Marey Carey for Govenor.....
Yeah, Richard, just wait until New Year's Day - that always gets a crowd out here. I think God must love the Rose Parade, because it is almost always a beautiful day. And then a whole bunch more people move here.
You would think that we would have enough people here to pay our bills - and not be in such debt!
Everyone loves to bash California though - cause we can take it!
I spoke to God and he's gonna make it rain this year!!Quote:

Ab Zurd for govenor!
Now look at what you guys have started. Portland, Oregon now has people out to recall the mayor. (I don't live in the city limits so I just get to sit back and watch).

FREE PARKING!!!
you can't beat that!!!!! I may just pack up and go!

catland,
something that bothers me about the portland recall.....
If Ms. Katz was first elected in '92, what took them soooooo long??????
i knew Oregon was laid back, but......:)
Cuz we're a bunch of MORONS. But seriously folks - Ms. Katz is a major political schmoozer and player. I can't stand her, but apparently a lot of others could (sort of a Bill Clinton type of charisma I guess).Quote:

She was smart enough to see the writing on the wall which is why she is not running again next year.
On the brighter side, I moved out of the city and into the 'burbs in '94, so IT'S NOT MY FAULT.:p
I guarentee we don't have a single beach that costs 12 dollars to park.

Taking notes:
Low license fees, and NO dirty beaches in N.M.
How about property taxes!
Oregon recalling the Gov.
Yep, copy cats, stepping in my shoes, or how
about, following the leader.
Which state will be next to recall???

I like following the leader!!!
Are we betting on the next state???;)
Ahrnold has decided to skip the debate.....:(
I'm disappointed!
Gary Coleman for Govenor.
A vote for Gary is a vote for the little man!
lol, his line, not mine!
thats a good question, property taxes... my house was about 150, my taxes are about 1800 a year (they just went up). I live in the cool hip neighborhood, with older homes that retain value well. Don't know how that compares.

Just a clarification everyone. We're recalling our mayor, not our governor.
We're small-town up here. We like to start with mayors before we can work our way up.:D
(btw - don't forget, we're scaling back, remember, we're the home of the ex-Senator Bob Packwood.:eek: )
THAT BOB PACKWOOD?Quote:

lol, he of women and the written word!!!
seriously, i heard some stats last night about
worker's comp here in the state!
the payouts were 9 bil in 1995...
29 bil in 2003!
That is a real problem here in the state!
this afternoon Arhnold made a public appearance
at a college in Long Beach, CA.....Someone threw and egg at him.....
His comment about the incident?
"That guy owes me bacon, you can't have eggs without bacon!!"
man o' man!!!
Why is it when a politician is put on the spot for something he did/did not do they answer the inquiry by saying, 'That's a good question!'
You mean to tell me that this dink and all his cronies could not figure out what the problem was??
THAT was painfully obvious when Gray Davis was put on the spot during last night's debate..
AHA! I wasn't the only one watching! And I see we both took note of the chant du jour (or noir) -"That's a good question"Quote:

Did you happen to count how many times he said that?
To tell the truth , I thought the Green guy came off best.
kohala:To tell the truth , I thought the Green guy came off best. >>>
I might be mistaken, but I think the green guy wanted
to raise our property tax's.
NOBODY BETTER FOOL with the PROPERTY TAX
for us home owners!!!! :mad:

i was kinda irritated that Uebberoth DIDN'T
want to repeal the "license law"...
did i mention i dislike politics?
:confused:
RICHARD:i was kinda irritated that Uebberoth DIDN'T

What happened to middle ground. I would be happy
if the same, or new Gov.. would at least repeal the license
law and raise it a certain percentage instead
of gouging (sp) us.
What did you think about, getting a CA drivers license for illegal
immigrants and not having to show any documentation?
Did I miss something?? :eek:
ditto from me too.....did i mention i dislike politics?
I CONCUR!!
And that's about as political a statement as I care to make!!
Yeah, I agree about the property taxes, KYS, like I said, out of them all he came of best - that's not saying much!!!!!!!!:( :(
So Ahnold is going to get a full audit as action #1 - good luck finding objective auditors!!

why does arianna huffington remind me of a Zsa Zsa?? is it the accent or the goofy thinking???:D
Larry Flynt for Govenor!

What "thinking" - the only word that applies is goofy - and maybe "accent"

Who is she anyway?
I heard a mention of her husband but I missed
who he was too. :confused:
arianna is one of those media personalities that
have alot to say with little or no meaning..
she was married to a super rich guy, Michael Huffington - his money allowed him to campaign for some public offices......he ran for, i think it was govenor, way back when.......later on he divorces Mrs. H because he is gay.
Mrs. H goes on to do news shows as pundit and general know-it-all.....
She always tries to be witty, but it comes out as rude and mean spirited......
bye bye pete!!
alas,
my candidate has dropped out......
now I have to choose someone else...
do you really have to pronounce 'California" correctly to be the govenor??
Arnold Schwazenneger has taken quite a
bit of heat for not getting specific on how he would solve the California budget mess.
Today he released a memo outlining one of his plans, namely to combine certain law enforcement functions, in this case the Department of Fish & Game and
the California Highway Patrol.
Seems he's going to call it the Department of Fish and Chips.
:D :eek:

why are you ashamed???
you've laughed at some of the stupid jokes I have posted!
two things...
7-11 will soon be selling a deck of cards ala' 'Iraq's 52 most wanted' - it will feature 52 of the california candidates!
DO YOU THINK THAT THE DIPSIE TWITS (Dixie Chicks) would learn??? The gal that plays the banjo commented to a European paper that Ahrnold's run for Gov wasn't wise....(Johnny Depp learned to say, "I was taken out of context...." pretty fast!)
You know, shoot your mouth off for the papers here at home instead!
Morons, one and all!
the thing that I found extremely funny was the fact that the
DC's were going to perform at a benefit concert and somehow
(I wasn't paying attention, unitelligent women BORE ME)
it was to get politicians to support THEIR cause.
Like DUH!!!!!!!
I don't understand that at all......:rolleyes:
Ozzy Osbourne makes more sense!
Geeeez Richard, you have fallen off the deep end
Ozzy Ozbourne? ? ? ?
I do believe I will vote for Arnold, he seems sincere and besides that I think he is cute, LOL

Hey California people - is there any truth to the rumor that 7-11 is going to make a deck of playing cards with 52 of the candidates? If they do, can I send you the money to mail me a deck?;)

You guys in CA think you have it bad, I just received my property tax bill and it's more than doubled since last year (before we had a Republican gov). It's now over $3,600 :eek: Just one of the reasons I'm on a noodle soup and kool-aid diet :( I thought when I made my final mortgage payment I'd be in good shape. HAH fat chance.:mad: :mad: :( Maybe it's time to think about a recall here in the East :(
L
sure am glad I made Gini's LA PetTalk Meet in July, it will be a while before I go anywhere else :(
HOLY COW that's steep. (unless you're in a reeeeally expensive house).
A return to the ramen years (aka college) to pay your property tax bill. that stinks!
Oddly, mine went down (sorry, wince).
Hope you get it paid off quickly and can return to real foods. :(

Time for you to REVOLT, and get something on the ballot..
Calif. had the same problem, and I believe it was Howard
Jarvis that got Prop 13 on the ballot and thankfully
we passed it. Saved many elderly and fixed income
residents from loosing their homes. :(
After that CA. officials tried to do anything they could
to upset prop 13, Courts held it up, and voters
have kept prop 13 safe so far, I think it would
be political suicide for politicians to mess with it
at this point, but they do try by tying bonds issues
to the property tax.
I NEVER vote for any bonds that have to do with property tax).
After 7 years plus, studies have been done, and
since most people usually do not stay in their house for more than
5 years the arguements against prop 13 does not pass gas anymore. :o
