It's official. Gay history will be taught to my public school kids.

I am in a state of shock and mourning over this. Is it possible to overturn it through the initiative process? My intuition tells me that over 50% of California parents will object to the gay agenda being taught in elementary school without an opt-out option. Just a hunch.

To My Detractors

Thanks so much for the messages you leave in comments. I appreciate comments from leftists because that tells me that my conservative message is effective and has you worried. Keep the cards and letters coming.

By the way, you will never be published on my blog.  Get your own blog.

What is going on in California, I don't know.

We conservatives in California are hurting. No matter how hard we try, we can't help our state. Now we have a "simple majority" to pass liberal spending measures? We are for sure circling the drain now. :-(

Maybe CA needs to be trashed completely before people wake up. Maybe if they go to the beach one hot summer day, and it's closed, they'll wake up. Maybe if they can't get on the freeway without paying by the mile they'll start to think differently. Liberalism is one thing, but mindless leftist robot voting is another. It's not just ignorant, it's now quite dangerous.

And many of you can laugh and carry on about how crazy voters are here - and they are - but you better be careful because this state has a huge economy, even now as gutted as it is. And CA has the juice to take a lot of the country down with it if we don't get our collective s**t together. Anyway, here's my note to my liberal friends, some of whom are really hot women who will probably hate me now. But I don't care, because I probably should have been speaking up a long, long time ago.  Enjoy.

Barbara Boxer: The people of CA, hardest hit by a lack of jobs, re-elected one of the chief architects of this economy that has given us 22% unemployment [CBS News] in our state. I have to ask those of you who voted for her: Don't you !@&$^?! get it? Or you home owners:

When Jerry Brown repeals Prop 13, and your property taxes triple (like they did LAST time under his 'leadership'), will you be upset? If you lose your house, who will you blame?

Now over to Prop 23: When the CA Air Resources Board insists that you pay 25¢ per mile to drive on the freeways [San Jose Mercury News], will you think even for a moment that maybe -- just maybe -- you weren't paying enough attention? Did you even know that C.A.R.B. can do pretty much whatever they like to enforce AB 32, including raising gasoline to $9 per gallon? [According to CARB themselves]. Our state is on the precipice of being completely broke, and the voters just created a perfect storm for these people to finish the once Golden State off. And if you think I'm exaggerating - or making things up - fine, laugh at me. But one day I'm going to follow you to the gas station and laugh at your dumb ass.

I know many of you do not share my political views, but one thing we surely agree on - we love this state. With every election, the voters are making it more and more impossible to live here. Businesses and major corporations are leaving the state. Some of our finest recreation land and parks are being shuttered. Arnold just sold the ?!@$?#?^%?& Orange County Fairground for God's sake!  And you voted to keep things going in this same direction? You know I very rarely if ever post politically, because I have a lot of respect for all of you, and I realize that good people do disagree.  I know that people on the left and the right both love this country. I know that Republicans and Democrats are both patriotic care about this land. That has not changed.

But what really bothers me, deep down, is that I don't think many voters at all did a little leg work to find out what they were really voting on. You saw a commercial with a mother holding a toddler, who was taking a breath from a large inhaler, and you said "oh we can't have that! No on 23!"  I could go on and on - Meg Whitman understands business and how to get things moving again. 22% unemployment!  That means that more than 1 in 5 Californians is, at best, unable to find full time work as they used to have. But you voted for Jerry Brown, whose history is there to see. He has said, on his radio show, that our state needs MORE welfare and LESS jobs. He said that - word for word - I'm not making it up.  And as stupid as that is, as ridiculous as it is to think that voters would give ol' Jerry Brown a second chance to ruin the state - You did it. You voted him in.

I'm not upset because my 'side' lost. I'm pissed off because CALIFORNIA lost! I'm grieved because my beloved state -- where I have grown up, gone to school, played in the surf, fallen in love, worked hard, enjoyed such great times I could never recreate them in a thousand years -- is crumbling. We are watching the demise of what was once the envy of the nation. Hard working employees are leaving. Soon, there will be government workers and people on welfare, and nothing else. Again, you think I'm exaggerating? Look around you. The state is losing its collective grip on reality.

No, I don't care about politicians - I wasn't so hot on Meg Whitman myself. I have no love for these political leaders on either side. But what happened tonight is that the California voters lost, and they don't even know it. And that's just pathetic.

Why Aren't Conservatives Dancing In The Streets?

Left Coast Rebel asks via The War Planner why we Conservatives are not popping the champagne corks because Charlie Rangel just got dinged for ethics violations (it's about time) and because Reid decided to drop Cap and Tax (for now).

Call me cynical, but I don't trust these people. They've had us over a barrel for a year and a half and they are about to get their comeuppance, thank you very much. November, here I come.

But the big picture is murkier and more disturbing, summed up sadly nicely by our blogging friend, Kristen. In her "Dictator of USA" piece, she describes why the Health Care Law, Financial Reform, National Popular Vote, Internet Kill Switch, Presidential Assassination Program, Disclose Act, Immigration Reform, Slim Victory for Second Amendment and Stacking the Court should have us all worried. Sorry to be a downer.

Not Post Racial. More Racial Than Ever.

"Since becoming president, he and those in his administration have conducted themselves like lowlifes that just won the lottery and are flaunting their new-found wealth.

High school football coaches in sports tell their players not to celebrate too much in the end zone after a touchdown. Doing so only enrages the other team, and it’s best to act like you’ve been there before. Obviously, Barack Obama has never played organized football. He said nothing when his supporters took the streets on Election Night, celebrating in a gloated, Third World frenzy. He said nothing when George W. Bush was booed during the inauguration.

He killed a program that enabled blacks to escape failing public schools, while enrolling his daughters into one of our nation’s elite. His wife went to a food kitchen, wearing some rather ugly $500 sneakers, and to this day we’re supposed to be in awe of her couple dozen attendants.

I wonder how many black White House employees have been put out of work, just so the Obamas can say they don’t have black servants?

Obama not only bragged about having pizza flown in cross-country while people who lost jobs are on food stamps, but he flew the chef to the White House. He demanded a budget-busting stimulus bill be passed immediately because we were losing 50,000 jobs a day, then after it’s emergency passage on Capitol Hill, took a long Valentine’s Day weekend off (complete with a date night with the missus) before signing it.

Going by his math, that meant close to a quarter million people lost their jobs, but his good times and political theater was all that really mattered.

Since winning the election, he’s gone out of his way to remind us all who’s in charge. He scolds Americans who don’t see things his way. He has shown no humility since taking the oath. How many times can he tell us he’s the president?

As many times as he wants, because finally, THE MAN is black, and he wants us to make damn sure we know it.

Our fathers told us to do the best you can, and should you succeed, make sure you conduct yourself in a way that leaves the door open for others. Is America going to want to go through this again?

The next time a black man runs for president, are people going to want to see scenes of Black Panthers standing in front of polling places with clubs, intimidating whites from voting, knowing the next black attorney general will let them walk free… and he did?

The next time a black man runs for president, are people going to want one who blindly sides with a loudmouthed professor, desiring of racial payback and a documentary deal, and falsely indict (in the court of public opinion) a good police officer and his department?

The next time a black man runs for president, are people going to want to see video of someone he appoints to the Supreme Court solely because of her gender and ethnicity, casually advocate making law from the bench?

The next time a black man runs for president, are people going to want to see a man he appoints as a czar accuse white people of deliberately polluting the black community while video surfaces of him calling political opponents “assholes”?

The next time a black man runs for president, are people going to want to see him go to foreign nations and apologize for the “sins” of America’s past? The next time a black man runs for president, are people going to want someone whose first impulse as Commander-in-Chief was to abandon areas our soldiers have bled and died to liberate? The next time a black man runs for president, are people going to want to listen to him deny our national heritage and values?

America is NOT a Muslim nation, bra.

The next time a black man runs for president, are people going to want other black politicians to follow his lead and blame everyone else for their misfortunes? After blaming others, should it be standard operating procedure to blame it all on racism?

The next time a black man runs for president, are people going to accept his national band of “organizers” who go out and publicly (and physically) intimidate anyone who dares oppose his initiatives? The next time a black man runs for president, are people going to want to sit back while he attempts to pay back whites for the pain blacks have endured in the past, even though most of those whites who did the oppressing are long since dead and gone?

Granted, America’s always had race issues, but they’ve never emanated from The Oval Office.

Anyone can be accused of racism at any time. Political dissent is no longer about issues, but now about how to shut people up and the race card is one the president and his administration doesn’t leave home without.

The Obama Administration is infested with angry black folk who are driven by a desire to pay whites back for the transgressions of their ancestors. Their white liberal supporters, who voted for him not because of his thin qualifications but a sense of pity and guilt, proudly excuse the ongoing slaps in the faces of Americans (whose only crime is to want the best for our country), and reject the ideology that’s brought the world more misery and death than any other.

Millions of Africans have died from malaria just so an environmentalist could feel good about herself. Millions of the very black children Barack Obama claims to care about have died at the hands of abortion doctors who follow an elitist, eugenics philosophy that awards those of prominence with life and condemns others deemed unfit to death.

And at the root are undisciplined, vengeful black people (and the whites using and directing them) who are hell-bent in destroying all that America was. Not to make her a better place, but to punish.

The President of the United States is supposed to be a steward of the office. The Obama Administration is full of people who have contempt, racial contempt, for this nation and all that made it great."

Who is looking out for Malia Obama?

This is not OK. Malia Obama is 11 years old. How DARE her parents use her body as a canvas to express THEIR political will! Most political parents try hard to keep their kids under the radar. They don't RENT SPACE on them like a BILLBOARD. Don't tell me that this is Malia's idea. An 11 year old girl shops under supervision. She could never wear something like this without the full support of her parents. And isn't it ODD that she wears this symbol of nuclear disarmament immediately after Obama reaches an agreement with Russia limiting the number of nuclear weapons? Not odd. WRONG.

Here is my message to the Obamas:
Your daughters are already thrust into the spotlight. Your best tactic, to help them grow up as normally as possible while living in a fishbowl, is to help them keep a LOW PROFILE. Besides, urging or encouraging them to make political statements as minors is inappropriate. Frankly it strikes me as a parental political expression, and not one of the child. What are you trying to accomplish? If you want to wear a peace sign, wear it YOURSELF. Because if you push your LITTLE kids into the harsh, glaring spotlight even more than they already are by circumstance, there may be SERIOUS consequences for them. Turn your kid into a celebrity at their peril. How do child stars usually fare in our society? Not well.

Let's get along

I want to. I really do. I bite my tongue until it bleeds. So forgive me for making posts that mention politics. The United States of America is my country. I care for it very much. And I see it going down, down, down like the DOW Jones Industrial average. Can we stop the madness? Can we stop passing spending bills to the tune of hundreds of billions on a weekly basis? Can we stop socializing the country? Can we just slow down? PLEASE?????

I found some comments on the internet that I agree with:
"I had hopes that 4 years of Obama wouldn't be too terrible and that we could fix his crazy mistakes in 2012... how dumb was I? He has been in office a month and he is honest to God destroying our country as we know it. A month, and he has already spent over a trillion with no end in sight. He looks in the camera and tells us 'no pork in this bill' and it's a blatant lie. He plans to sneak national health care (paid for by higher taxes on people who already pay more than their share) past us and he won't even bat an eye. When will the revolt start? I know there's the tea party thing, but honestly, we need more than that. Our country is being taken from us day by day of this administration."

"You guys have no idea how bad universal health care is. I spent 5 years in Canada under U.H.C and its the worst. Say you went to the hospital with chest pains and the doctor did an E.K.G. 2 months later it happens again only this time the government refuses the second E.K.G or blood test because you had on two months ago..you think im kidding..those of you that think its a good idea had better do your homework and fast!!"

"In a Scandinavian country they factor in the number of people who will die waiting to see a doctor and then the wait for surgery. Try 3 years for heart surgery, 6 months for a pace maker, or try traveling hundreds of miles to the hospital that specializes in your illness. Hope you don't mind family and friends not visiting you as you die in that hospital. Why do you think we have so many Canadian doctors in this country? It isn't because they love leaving their families. Good ones go where the opportunities are and not where they are told how much they will make the rest of their lives. You will become a liability to every doctor you see and not an asset. Doctors will be government workers!!! If that doesn't scare you, you are brain dead already."

"Ya hear that, old people? BO is thinking you aren't really worth that much health care...so prepare to get by with much less."

"Oh, heck folks...millions of dollars...that's not much...throw in a few trillions..and that's not much. Soon, we will print more and more money...and if you want a loaf of bread...we'll be like the other third-world countries...get our wheel-barrows and haul the money to the merchant to get our loaves of bread....not to worry...we will be there soon enough ...no need to be concerned...it's JUST MONEY...WAKE UP PEOPLE..."
