You have found So Cal Central. The place for odd and creative, or maybe offbeat musings in Southern California. The Untitled One's Comments: Dateline July 18, 2003 Instead of admitting the end, the Dems are bringing in their big guns. Fighting to the end, Terry Mcauliff and other from the DNC are out to plead Low Beams cause. Ever to put their agenda out front (they all usually mean more taxes), they just don't get it. Taxes mean a temporary fatter Cali Government. I say temporary because those new taxes typically go towards new spending programs causing bigger deficits. Lower taxes mean less burden on business and more investment. Put the partisanship aside and the facts speak for themselves. Businesses are leaving the state in droves. A busted-unfixable workmans comp fund, and high taxes and regulations are making this an unfriendly state. You can only push the "business is bad" mantra so long before business takes the hint and picks up their toys plays in a friendlier park. The Dems would be smarter to put out front some one like Dianne Feinstein who has credibility her party. Meanwhile not to disappoint, a lesbian Sen. Sheila Kuehl is pushing schools to push tolerance and diversity. A California legal organization is pushing an effort to guarantee rights of parents in the state to direct the moral upbringing of their children in the wake of efforts by a controversial state senator to inform school superintendents that parents have few rights to "opt out" their children from mandated "anti-bias education." Just what we need the Socialists playing even more with our kids heads. Just recently Your Untitled One was speaking to a father at a convention. He told me how his kids math scores would not be based on accuracy. But on "a good effort". The more the math followed the right general direction, the better the grade. God help us when these kids grow up to find out that you don't get paid for the wrong result. Dateline July 15, 2003 Your Untitled One has been closely watching this recall effort. The State is trying to get out of the recall thru various underhanded means. Yet the will of the people-or the petition signers be done. The recall of Governor Low Beam Davis is qll but assured for the coming election. The question now is who will run? The two most vocal have been Isis and McClintock. The most dramatic is Arnie the Terminator. He has admitted he is considering a run. This will be interesting as he has not offered any ideas or positions at all. Yet, he would have a tremendous chance to win because of his visibility. On the Democratic side, no one has thrown their name into the hat, yet. This is too early yet to admit the recall has made it on the ballot. Meanwhile, some good things are happening in the Golden State. California has adopted a tough new privacy law. As of July 1, California became the very first state in the US to require businesses and government offices to notify people if any database that lists personal information experiences a breach in security.
