2010 California Propositions Voters Guide
Posted by CotoBlogzz 10-07-2010 - Updated 10-10-2010 with Stop the Jobs recommendations
Rancho Santa Margarita, CA - While heuristics indicate that a NO vote in any California's direct special interest democracy is a wise move, following the money may be even better. Below is a list of the 2010 California propositions, their main supporters and our recommendations, including a brief rationale.
|
Now, before you dismiss our recommendations, consider that two years ago, we forecasted that 2010 would usher in a disruptive political environment, such that it would make Madam Senator Barbara Boxer, Speaker Pelosi and Senator Harry Reid vulnerable. Pundits and observers alike laughed at our thinking then, describing it as typical fringe teabagger mentality. Then we predicted that Health Care Reform would pass they same day conservative pundit Charles Krauthammer predicted it would fail by a 66%-33% margin, then we predicted an all California Girls slate in Whitman, Fiorina and Hutchens on month before the primary elections when most pundits called the races too close to call.
So go ahead, ignore our recommendations at your and California's peril.

THE FORUM: Vote "Yes" for 23; support jobs
The California Air Resources Board acknowledges that "no direct public health impacts" are expected from Prop 23. The proposition delays control of greenhouse gas emissions, implicated in global warming. It delays implementation of AB 32 (the global warming solution), which penalizes sources of emissions, especially refineries and fossil fuel power sources.
The
2010 Union Voting Guide - Use at your Own Peril
Rancho Santa Margarita, CA - There is a lot of truth
in the old adage that "we should not judge a book
by its cover." But what if we have access to the
Cover, the Table of Contents and the Appendix? Can we
get a good idea as to the contents of the book? In
other words, using another adage "tell me who you
associate with and I will tell you who you are?"
and applying the latter to political elections, if we
know the candidate's supporters, we should be able to
have a good idea about how that candidate will govern.
Take for instance Van Jones, Reverend Wright, the
National Representative of the Nation of Islam's Louis
Farrakhan, the Reverend Al Sharpton, terrorist William
Charles " Bill" Ayers and former White House
Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel all supporters of
candidate Obama. Should this not have been a good
indicator, largely ignored, of the contents of the now
Presidential Book?
