On Sunday, the state Republican Party voted to oppose Proposition 71, saying it would add too much to the state's debt load.

That kinda says it all, doesn't it?

The California GOP apparently isn't concerned that the "stem cell research" that the proponents really want is the embryonic kind - - you know, the kind that helps justify and legitimize the multi-billion-dollar abortion industry, AKA that big Democrat campaign-money laundromat.

No. The California Republicans say they oppose it because of the added debt. Un-friggin'-believable.

Well it was the right decision for the wrong reason. Being cheritable, because I have a negative 5000 rating when it come to the Ca republican party leadership, this is probably the best political love.

That being said, if we as conservatives ever wish to make headway in the arena of public opinion, we have to speak clearly and with conviction about our world-view in public. We can't wimp out because we don't have enough backbone to stand up for what we believe. And we can't be in a position of NOT knowing our true beliefs well enough to present them.

With the exception of Tom McClintock who has spoken up in public for what they believe. I know that some of you know I'm not a big fan of Tom's for several reasons. One is that Tom reminds me of that high school pocket protector guy who's smart and on the right track, but has the people skills of your social outcast brother-in-law.

What is it about conservatism, that we cannot field brilliant men and women with the dynamic skills of a Ronald Reagan, for public office?

It's truly depressing.
