Governor events tomorrow
So the front page here says that both Phil and Arnold will be in town tomorrow, but that only Phil is announcing where his event is. It seems like this is perfect example of how the parties have differed over the last decade or so. I'm not bashing Republicans, but the party leadership has taken on a feeling of secrecy and elitism that bothers me a lot. As a liberal, I feel my ideas for the future of the country are better certainly, but I also feel like I want to have someone to argue with. The leaders of the GOP don't seem interested in conversations with anyone who can't make a decent sized donation to their party. Has the GOP leadership decided to stop serving even the rank and file Republicans by holding invitation-only events in undisclosed locations? What say you?

You have to believe in that if you believe in "abstinence-only" sex-ed classes in schools and education-only family planning foreign aid. It all makes sense, but only if you're sufficiently twisted and ignore pesky things like "reality"....

Depends on how much sex the kids are having, I guess, MyLefte. On this blog, only Mocus (and Anny, occasionally) seem to think of kids whenever they think of sex. I shudder to think why.

We liberals don't *NEED* to *BREED*, Mucus. We'll take *YOUR* kids. And we'll raise them so they're not insecure, whiny-ass-titty-babies. You know..."Conservatives." posted by

Hey, Moke is right for once. (I'll gladly wear the "liberal" label for this purpose, since by Moke's definition, roughly 80% of Americans are liberals. :-) posted by

It's nice to see that you believe everything in the LA Times, mucus.

I guess that's what happens if you get protested every place you go announced. People like Arnold don't want your opinion, they want your money. If you donate enough, then they want your opinion.

You remember, the short annoying kid actor. Gary Coleman.

He can still stop in to pick up some cash from Bako. Great.

Tom, Ah-nold *HAS* to sneak in and out of town. He owes us money, remember?
