#1 say what you like, but he's playing to the tune of "California, here I come" Go Arnie!

CA has long needed someone who could tame the populace and rid it both of the corrupt Republicans and corrupt Democrats.

Ok... so he flaked on global warming. Being that CA understands flakes, I would imagine that both red and blue voters in CA would be ok with that.

#4 "delighted that he signed their minimum wage bill"

Well democrats have allways hated reality. The "minimum wage" destroys jobs for poorer people.

A far better way of raising pay is to cut back on population growth (especially subsidising immigration) and see jobs compete for people.

#5 I am surprised that the Dems didn't pass a bill making it mandatory to pay the minimum wage to illegals.

#6 RWV,

It might be a really fun way of detering illegal immigrants.

#7 They (the Reds) breathed a sigh of relief last week when he vetoed a bill to give California's presidential electoral votes to the winner of the national popular vote.

The irony of this atrocious and unconstitutional piece of legislation is that it would probably have benefitted national GOP candidates--with leftoid conspiracy theories to follow.

#11 California always was purple. The Dems always managed to pull it off because the National Party didn't understand that Californians care about the environment and mass transit and increasing funding for public lands.

Let's face it. The Republicans aren't that great. We vote for them only because the Dems are sooo much worse. The Republicans may steal our money, but at the end of the day, at least they want America to be around so that they can continue to steal our tax dollars. Dem's, on the other hand, just want to burn it down so they can loot it.

#12 anon, one of the better analogies of both national parties I've heard in a while - good post.

Mine is - republicans like big government, the dems like bigger government. Or, republicans want to legislate your bedroom & the dems want to legislate your pocket book.

Personally I'd like to fire most of congress and stop this cycle of false senses of priveledge our elected officials have adopted.

#13 me too. We need to throw them all out and start over. We need to remind these self-proclaimed princes who is really in charge. Too late to do it this year, but I'm hoping that an effort will be made to do it for the next term. I'm sick of them all, the bloated tick perverts.

#15 My "God for a Day" changes:

One term limits for all Congressmen. One term limits for all Senators. One term limits for all Presidents. No campaign conributions by anyone for any reason over $100. You wanna run? Fine. Use your own frickin money.

You say, How will anything ever get done? Precisely.

Oh, and if you're a lawyer, you're automatically disqualified.
