Air passenger says Davis took him for ride

And would have made him king for life if they could have.

[JSteff]

Let me get this straight. This guy built an addition on his house with money he didn't have based on wishful thinking and some information he managed to badger out of Gray Davis?

You forgot to add- "and this guy is teaching our children?"

[BibChr]

Amazing that He doesn't also feel the "hollow spot" in his head

For that, he'd have to have feeling in his head.

After all we know about Davis, this guy is an idiot for believing anything Davis said.

And he's also an idiot, because he was 'counting his chickens before they hatched' and now blames someone else for the consequences.

[LibWhacker]

Greedy teachers. Central Valley secondary school teachers already make about $40 grand a year -- and that's a nine-month year. Money, not kids, is all they care about.

At least many of the so-called "money-grabbing" corporations they hate so much have programs that actually benefit chill'run. But not the parasitic members of the NEA.

They are true socialist scum.

They would walk over their own mothers to make a buck. I am tickled pink to see another true socialist scum, in the guise of (do socialist scum EVER come unclothed in a misrepresentative guise?) caring governor, walking all over them. There is no honor among thieves.

[Grampa Dave]

Actually, this teacher and his other socialist teaching peers will still vote for Davis!

SIMON, THE SANE ONE!

[Grampa Dave]

No, but the teacher sounds like the typical teacher that I know of.

[CaptRon]

So. The guy hears he is to get a bonus. He starts the project without first having the money in hand. I'm supposed to be aghast at his dilemma.

Yeah.

[Biblebelter]

The dissembling media has established a style. That style is that every story should have a victim. The problem is that this story violates a universal truth, by definition a Democrat is a victimizer, and when two fellow Democrats get together you have victimizers, and two victimizers does not a victim make.

[Gophack]

Misunderstanding? Not.

Now, to give Davis the benefit of the doubt, I would concur that the Governor couldn't possibly remember every conversation. That's fine. However, while IN a conversation, he should at least tell the truth! Typical liberal, if he doesn't know something, tell the voters what he thinks they want to hear.

I feel bad for Mr. Pelfrey, but he learned his lesson, I'm sure: never believe a word Gray Davis tells you.

Go Simon!

[X-USAF]

Bad things come to those who can't wait.

On the strength of the governor's word, Pelfrey said, he embarked on construction of a garage at his house in Penn Valley. He had spent $1,200 or so on leveling the back yard and putting in concrete forms when he learned from his union that the bonuses, in fact, were gone.

Guess this proves that having a college education doesn't necessarily mean you are smart.

Who plans things based on a promise, especially a promise made by a politician?

This guy was/is an idiot. But Davis feels his pain [bite lip]...oh, and thanks for the vote, sucker.

[BornOnTheFourth]

LOL--That's exactly what I thought? Who borrows money based on the word of a politician? Davis, especially.

[Chairman_December_19th_Society]

On the strength of the governor's word, Pelfrey said,

That was his first mistake - believing a demonflop had enough honor to actually tell the truth!

[hattend]

BTW: It would be fun if somebody who lives near Live Oak school would give this guy a printout of this thread. Or maybe tack it up on the school bulletin board.

The object lesson here, and when dealing with liberals in general:

Don't listen to them.
Don't believe them.
Don't trust them.

Other than that, keep both hands on your wallet.

Dumba$$ teacher Bump

[let freedom sing]

Yeah-- my dad flew with Davis, once.... Davis told my dad, to come visit him at the Capitol, anytime (years and years, ago.) He never did. Still thinks Davis is a nice guy. He doesn't still live in CA-- he'd vote for Davis. Major Denial...

[gohabsgo]

can you say dumb ass!

[KineticKitty]

You have a point there! LOL
