Reader Email: Clinton Was Right?
Les Emails About Missing Bill and Gray
Yesterday I posted a quote from former President Bill Clinton about Sarah Palin. The President’s words may not be sinking in with hate machines out there, but at least one reader heard it.
Les Writes:
Rog: I’ve voted almost exclusively for republicans since Nixon. So you know it’s tough when I look at the political situation today and realize I miss Bill Clinton and Grey Davis.
Regards,Les
Les, I’m not sure I miss Bill Clinton though I would be really happy if his economic policies were on the table instead of Obama’s huge tax hikes on my business and my family, but I absolutely applaud him for what he said. I don’t even care if there were other motives at play. If everyone would elevate their level of discussion to why we should vote FOR someone rather than giving ten reasons why the world will explode if the other guy wins, then maybe we could get something done. It kind of makes me wonder if both sides just want us bickering over tiny little things in the hopes that we don’t notice the big picture. (Guess what, it’s working.)
As for Gray Davis, nope. I’m still happy he’s gone. Arnold has taken a trip to political reality and that disappoints me. He has learned that California is controlled by the absolutely insane Left, the Teachers’ Union (Redundant there) and that there is no hope for genuine compromise. If they ever get rid of the super majority requirement to raise taxes then we are all doomed. There will be nothing to stop them from taxing porn, soda, services and every other thing they can get their hands on. Of course that may be what is necessary to wake the Democrat Party in California up. Let them tax everything until the moderate Dems kick out the nutbar Socialists running things. (Yes YOU Mr. Calderon and your porn tax.) What was I talking about? Oh yea Davis. No thanks. You think it’s bad now? Imagine how much shit we would be in if Davis had allowed the nutty Socialists to run things? I’d probably be in Florida with the rest of the porn industry had that happened.
Thanks for the input as always Les. In keeping with the spirit of what Clinton said I’m going to work on some election pieces that are positive. I just wish I could find something positive to say about the candidates. So far I’ve got the following. Obama is a great public speaker, McCain served his country honorably and Sarah Palin looks really good in glasses. Still working on Biden.
