Two words, kids...
RE
CALL
I would gladly take Perry over the garbage that was just elected here. Is Perry perfect, Nope, but he is SO much better then Brown..heck ANYTHING is better then Brown..
Apparently, they will be able to pass a budget with only a majority and not 2/3rds. That means the unions are going to have a field day. Seriously.
Ronstadt is such a lib, but back in the day, DAYUMM! On the other hand, the members of the Eagles were always ugly.
Heard the part about schools—more spending, no private sector jobs. You have my sympathy, CA Freepers. Will Brown be able to ramble his through an entire term without being recalled? Or have the Democrats already amended the CA Constitution to prevent that from ever happening again?
If there is a saving grace, the prop that requires 2/3rds vote for fee increases is leading. They still need to put together a balanced budget, which should be interesting.
Moved to Oregon last year to settle my mom’s estate. Whereas some people might love this state, it’s not my cup of tea and I want to move.
I was in the middle of a job search in California, planning to move following today’s election.
Seriously, I just changed my mind. I was a kid living under Pat Brown, a college student living under Jerry Brown. Those two made the mess California is in!
I won’t move back to California.
What the hell did he even say? He doesn’t use a prompter or notes, and I kinda wish he did. We are soooo screwed.
I remember reading Rolling Stone back in the day, and Jerry Brown was being interviewed, (or was it just Linda, I can’t remember), but during the entire interview, the guy writing the article said that she was completely naked.
California MUST be sold to the Chinese... NOW!
California is screwed.
The liberals are insane.
I guarantee nothing will change for the better.
More taxes. More regulation. More illegals. More unemployment. More government incompetence and corruption. The school system will languish in last place.
One thing I am grateful for is that with the GOP in partial power at the federal level, the state will languish on its own with no bail outs.
GOP. teapartiers, if you are out there, practice the 9th and 10th Amendment and NEVER BAILOUT CALIFORNIA.
It is like giving drugs to a drug addict and these bone headed liberals will never learn.
And I say this as a Californian.
I really hope the entire state collapses and goes bankrupt, because I am going Galt.
I think that Jerry Brown is exactly what the voters of CA need right now. The state is circling the toilet even faster than the rest of the nation. The insanity just cant go on much longer- CA is quickly heading towards Zimbabwe level “failed state” status. It will hit that bottom quicker with moonboom at the helm than another Arnold style RINO.
I feel sincerely sorry for all the hard working freepers and other good folks trapped out there. However, California apparently needs to hit ROCK BOTTOM before there there is any hope of renewal. It will get there faster with Brown than with Whitman.
“Ronstadt is such a lib, but back in the day, DAYUMM!”
That’s what about 12 guys a night thought, too. You couldn’t drink her under the table; she was already down there.
Did you hear what Boxer just crowed?
What an utterly vile, hateful thing to say by this wicked wench.
Look, I realize that Free Republic is hosted in California but my affinity for the once Golden State is diminished by the despicable politicians that continue to get elected there. Like fortheDeclaration said upthread, "Escape while you can!"
“The marijuana initiative may be losing...”
Lost. They won’t give up though. Low voter turnout did it. The voters couldn’t get down to the polling place, they had some shit they had to do.
"Rambling" is putting it kindly.
I vote for "incoherent, with a touch of senility."
God help us all.
“California is done for. The liberals have killed the Golden State.”
It was, too. Especially in the 50’s and 60’s. I’m going back home to Florida ... the panhandle ... where folks are normal.
