Which should raise the question, How does a little guy (Tom)with sound ideas make it on the stage when he is outshone by GReen, hype and has little plans at hand to talk about other than generalities, cut cut cut taxes, etc ad nasueum.
That is EXACTLY what I've tried my darnest to address or question in this thread.
PS - did ya know the GUb says global warming is real and something must be done asap.? And he supposedly speaks for the voters of California, :)
YUP. I wondered "what's up with that"? This would be the right time for genuine conservatives within the CAGOP to crank out letters to the editor making their own case for principles, IMHO. Articles submitted to e-zines, magazines, etc.
On another matter -- re Arnold and global warming... It's just gotta be infuriating to the Dems and their allies -- him upstaging their own agenda. Oh well, I bet their protests and "anti-Governator" money gets bigger and bigger and wilder and wilder. E-ticket ride? No kidding. (Pretty please, NormsRevenge? You do post the best gifs of the usual "blue zone" protests in CA. Remember me if ya ping, pls? I wanna see if they've changed their usual fashions yet while doing protests. Some of the puppetry antics were definitely due for an update to being more "progressive", IMHO.)
Back to it, it does come down to the vote. And genuine conservatives in CA can simply vote NO or yes, or whatever they please. It does put the "conservative" CAGOP into position which can definitely be disconcerting. But, I don't think CAGOP should fear. A principle is a principle, and truth does bear out.
Then you haven't been reading what you've been supplied. The answer is to beat the greens on their own turf with a two-fold approach:
It's simple.
Re Globill warming: YUP. I wondered "what's up with that"?
Clearly, it's the payoff to his backers. Either you didn't read it, or are you having separate conversations.
Yes, I'm getting testy with you. You requested a civil conversation. You got one, with data and cogent arguments. Then you post like you never received such a thing.
It's just gotta be infuriating to the Dems and their allies -- him upstaging their own agenda.
That theory is just like Republicans pandering to Hispanics. You can't out-pander the Slave Party. The votes won't be there as they weren't for Bush last year. As for the activists, as long as Arnold delivers, they'll stay fairly quiet until it's time to go for more. Then they'll shaft him but good. They always do.
In fact, Hispanic Democrats are fighting the greens now in the name of jobs for their people and look where Arnold stands on that issue!
Idiots.
It does put the "conservative" CAGOP into position which can definitely be disconcerting.
The left (and with them Arnold) has no concern for the REAL environmental consequences of increased atmospheric carbon dioxide, which are large and serious. The effect of carbon dioxide on climate is miniscule by comparison. To show how and why they don't care and hide those real issues when they come up shows that all they care about is money and power. This whole Glowbill Warming scam can be popped like a bubble. I have a published article on that one too.
