I think he must be.
One of his quotes I enjoyed: "I see celebrities being rude to fans all the time, and I don't understand it. You are rich, good-looking, and famous. You have every reason to be happy. I see no reason to be glum and unfriendly. Be nice, and grateful."
The worst part of the crisis is when those flakes move to, and destroy, other entire states. Worse than the plague. I could care less about kalifornia. I just hate it when those fools move out.
Well said.

As long as you’re not one of the FReepers who thought Arnold was the right man for the job against Tom McClintock!!!!! I really don’t think those can be found here anymore or at least not that they will admit Arnold was their choice....
::it was posted by Behind Liberal Lines, another CNY FReeper::
Don’t know what CNY means but he is from Ithaca....that’s why he has that screen name....
::I just hope they don’t bring their beliefs and voting records with them
But they do...::
That is such a wild notion that people have in their heads and it’s difficult to dissuade them otherwise. We made it out of CA 12 years ago, took our conservative values with us to GA. Truth be told, more conservatives flee the state than the opposite. Yes - years and years ago when conservative was the WORD for CA - the liberals did flee to OR and WA but that was long ago and times changed. The liberals are perfectly happy now staying right where they are.
You too can get out....You don’t need a neighboring state...
The number that matters is GDP per capita.
California ranks eighth highest among the states, at $58,619. Massachusetts was #1, at $65,545. Mississippi was last, with $31,881. But there was one stinking non-ranked non-state that came in at $160,472.
Among nations, the US ranked #11, at $59,495. Venezuela was #96 at $12,388. Liechtenstein was #1 at $139,100.
Not so sure about that. They seem to have no grasp of cause and effect. Many liberals also worry about rising crime, runaway taxes, outrageous housing prices, decrepit infrastructure, overcrowding etc. but don't seem to comprehend they're getting what they voted for. Instead they leave and take the same problems with them.
I agree there's certainly an entrenched liberal elitist class along the coast, San Francisco, Santa Barbara, Silicon Valley, Hollywood, etc. that enjoys the new feudal system in the state: an illegal underclass to serve them at very low wages which also votes for Democrats. But it's not just conservatives fleeing CA.
which I would say includes Ithaca, and much else.
"But...but...that's different! We can secede from the country, but you can't secede from the state!"
/Lib mentality.
Love MST3K, too. Great link.
My wife is the one who got me onto MST3K.
