Unfortunately, I believe that a lot of members of the California National Guard are in Iraq.

Here are a couple of facts...

"Our earlier case that the election made little difference was based on five assumptions. Non-defense discretionary government spending has increased under President Bush by more than twice the average of the last two Democratic presidents, and a huge new entitlement was initiated while his recent predecessors created none at all. Conservatives simply could make no case for him in regard to unnecessary government spending. Second, even on social policy, where the president has been much sounder, everyone agrees that the appointment of the next Supreme Court justice is the most critical policy choice. Yet, here, Mr. Bush has made it known that he wants to appoint the first Hispanic to the court, his White House counsel, Alberto Gonzales -- who is not a conservative.

No kidding he ain't a conservative, he is from La Raza.

Its not an expansion of government. Its actually a means of enhancing public safety. The first obligation of a government in a civilized society is to to ensure safe communities and enforce the laws. Especially immigration laws that are neglected. Even the Los Angeles Times Sacramento Bureau Chief, George "Slumberin'" Skelton, a committed Lefty, agrees the idea of a California Border Patrol is an idea whose time has come. Voters would approve it handidly and its not about the money - I'd pay whatever it costs to make sure enough 9/11 never happens again on our shores. California can once again be a trendsetter for the rest of the country.
