Hey Carey/Kevin,
For the first time in a while, I feel hopeful that California has a shot at a true recovery. Initially, I was going to support Meg Whitman because I saw her when she was campaigning with Palin. She was the only somewhat promising candidate I had heard of for the California GOP (we have closed primaries, so it's not like I can choose a different party). But it REALLY bugged me that she was so chummy with Van Jones. Her ambiguity on life in the womb is extremely disgusting and her vagueness on offshore drilling is irresponsible. She places way more importance on environmental issues than she should, in my opinion.
Steve Poizner(yeah, lousy name but good man) has articulated a CLEAR, CONCISE, and SPECIFIC plan for allowing California to climb out of the mess it's in. He is currently the state's Insurance Commissioner and is the only one who has budgeted a California agency in such a way to create a surplus WITHOUT raising taxes and fees, this is a matter of record. In fact, when it was discovered that there was a surplus, he went about CUTTING insurance taxes and fees. He believes in LOCAL control of school boards, not state and not federal. He supports offshore drilling to reduce costly oil imports to California. He supports seawater desalination for coastal districts so that not as much water will need to be imported.
He believes in only traditional marriage - basically civil unions and domestic partnerships are tolerable, but changing the definition of marriage to support gay unions is a no no. He believes in abortion only in extreme life-of-the-mother/rape/incest cases but for all other reasons he is opposed to abortions and is especially opposed to government funded abortions. He supports the 2nd Amendment of the U.S. Constitution. Whitman is refusing to debate him, which sends up red flags about her. He signed the Taxpayer Protection Pledge.
According to Poizner's website, he wants a:
10% reduction in all personal income tax rates
10% reduction in the state sales tax rate
10% reduction in the corporation tax rate
50% reduction in the capital gains tax rate
Carey/Kevin (which is it? sorry, I don't know), I'm sorry if this sounds like a political commercial but it's not crap. I was totally in favor of Whitman 2 hours ago, but we can't afford vagueries anymore. I'm humbly asking that you forward this to any of your friends and lists in California. Poizner's only fault is he happens to be married to a democrat and they have a joint checking account which explains the Gore donations. Whitman is not to be trusted, especially if she likes Van Jones.
Blessings,
Emily R Shelley

Carey's politically incorrect hodgepodge
I saw a political cartoon where a man was saying now that Al Gore has been quiet we can go back to calling global warming by its true name, summer.
To go along with that, in a newspaper article explaining the El Nino affect it said this has been one of the coolest July's in the past 100 years. Then again maybe El Nino has nothing to do with it. It could be because EGore's finally run out of hot air.
My Jewish friend has been sick. He was concerned that maybe he had the swine flu. I said and you being Jewish makes having the swine flu twice as bad.
Rep. Barney Franks just doesn't get it. The Democrats are bouncing around aimlessly, even though on issues of grave importance like homosexual rights they stand erect, ummm I mean united. I watched Franks on C Span doing a town hall meeting for health care. He said I am all for labor unions and think the American wages need to go up. OK let me analyze this for you.
We have Obama trying to cut the costs of the American auto makers. We have jobs going over seas because we can't compete with their lower labor costs. And here is Franks saying we need to increase our wages. I have said this for years, you want the economy to rebound quickly and grow, lower minimum wage.
America has waged another battle as you know against obesity. I just wonder if Obama with his Muslim ties will try to incorporate the Shiite policy of starving wives into the health care plan.
Congress came up with a way to save electricity at the White House. They are shutting off President Obama's TelePrompTer. The President was speechless.
At least we now have a Democratic president doing something right. We had President Clinton who didn't know how to smoke pot and said he didn't inhale. Today we have President Obama who smoked crack and did inhale.
NASA Glenn Research Center in Cleveland is suppose to close. Now if you want to learn about black holes and space you will have to attend one of the Cleveland City Council meetings.
The Obama adminstration is thinking about Cash for Fridges. Thats great, first cash for clunkers so you will have a new car to drive to the grocery store to fill your new fridge. Two big problems. Does anyone have gas money to drive to the store and money for groceries to fill the new fridge?
The bad and the good. The bad is Rhode Islands government is about to shut down for 12 days. That shows how bad our economic situation is. The good, the government is shutting down for 12 days, there is hope.
