By the way... I think your tagline tells the whole story about you... really!!!

Yep. I couldn't think of a better tagline since all of the really stupid ones were taken by the "true Conservatives".

[SierraWasp]

Just as I suspected... You're a muddled, middle of the road "moderate" that endlessly sings: "I've looked at life from both sides now," and sits and wrings hands with every decision hoping people will think you are "balanced" and "even handed" enough to be considered the smartest person in the room, or on FR!!! Right???

Then you better go blot out that idle reference to you bein some kind of "conservative" Repellican on your FR home page because that is patently false!!!

We can all tell the what you call a "true Conservative" like Senator Haynes from a Lindsey Graham/John McCain Repellican moderate dumbdumb who comes on here attacking kellynla, without ANY provocation and with no real reason!!!

See that's your problem. You are so puffed up in your bravado that all you can do spray spittle. You are just another keyboard commando that would squeal like a little girl if face to face. You use childish verbal cuteness like "Repellican" as if that added weight to idiotic rant. You and most of your group are pitiful wannabes.

No you stop waiting and take care of your own.

I prefer it die a quick and irreversible death!

There are SOME bills in congress I would like to see pass, not many, but a few.
They do not stand a chance while this tripe (menudo?) continues to occupy congress attention.

[ClaireSolt]

What a bunch of completely impotent wimps. Big mouths for whining, that all. I lived in California when it was a lot better. This is the third crisis in six years and ally ou ever do it throw up your hands and whine and wail. It is disgusting.

Here are the names I've seen posted/reported that joined the boycott (there are probably more)

Sen. Jim Battin
Sen. Dennis Hollingsworth
Sen. Tom McClintock
Assemblyman John J. Benoit
Assemblyman Russ Bogh
Assemblyman Chuck DeVore
Assemblyman Ray Haynes
Assemblywoman Sharon Runner

[calcowgirl]

Well he implied in the article that he asked others to join him. He didn't say if any did. It appears to me he didn't get the publicity he wanted so he wrote the article to explain questions that never were asked.

He was not alone. There was plenty of press coverage--several of those articles were posted at FR.

No you stop waiting and take care of your own.

What part of "federal responsibility" do you not understand?

And you have the nerve to call Californian's "impotent wimps"?

Your criticism is misdirected.

[television is just wrong]

you will surely not hear their names mentioned on network news.

[ClaireSolt]

I know that Ca freepers don't take criticism well. If you wanted to project a better image, you might send someone to the senate besides a hysterical dame.

You can use federal responsibility as a cop out, if you think it works. But it does not. It got New Orleans flooded with water and CA flooded with Mexicans. What Ca needs now is about 500 Joe Arpaios.

[SierraWasp]

Well... Since you think I've got some kind of problem and can't see yourself as others see you... I'm just gonna let your futile last words hang out there and dry up and decay in the vacuous vacant lot of those who've abandoned consistent constitutional conservatism!!!

[calcowgirl]

I know that Ca freepers don't take criticism well.

California deserves a lot of criticism. But your contentions were just silly.

You can use federal responsibility as a cop out, if you think it works. But it does not.

Uh-huh. Sure, okay. We'll all just hop on over to that federal land and start messing with federal property, despite pending litigation concerning federal laws and notwithstanding pending federal legislation. Yeppers. No problem!

[tertiary01]

Maybe if we should try to confiscate Federal land and start building a fence. LOL. We would finally get those Federal troops on the border we need so desperately.

At least the illegals trying to cross the border would be notified via their vast info network to avoid the mess and try to cross somewhere else.

[calcowgirl]

LOL. You may be on to something!
