You know, I used to get frustrated with the long drive between San Francisco and Los Angeles that I made two or three times a year before I moved. And yet we're supposed to believe that some clown in Sacramento wants to make that trip regularly in a state-provided luxury car to "stay in contact with his constituents." I guess we're supposed to be grateful that his constituency isn't in San Diego. <br /><br />I never thought I'd find myself saying this, but hasn't he ever heard of FaceBook and Twitter? E-mail? Or even airplanes?LawHawkRFDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17800255923675295515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4425587034622601550.post-66430697478222836382011-04-18T12:36:09.330-04:002011-04-18T12:36:09.330-04:00"NOT MY STATE-PROVIDED RIDE!" ~waaaaaaa..."NOT MY STATE-PROVIDED RIDE!" ~waaaaaaaa~<br /><br />yes. i love this. i'd be happy to provide roller-blades to one lucky legislator. green and getting in shape! win win, baby! <br /><br />isn't this what those dudes/ettes all about anyway?!pattihttp://www.notawonk.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4425587034622601550.post-58672027542309919582011-04-18T12:34:12.816-04:002011-04-18T12:34:12.816-04:00Tehachapi Tom: The pool remains in effect, and I&...Tehachapi Tom: The pool remains in effect, and I'm sure those creative legislators will figure out a way to exploit what they have left of their perk.

Requiring prevailing wage and union labor for any contractor performing such work almost doubles the cost of such projects. There are licensed contractors who are more than capable and are willing to bid much better prices for the same materials and labor required for these projects.<br /><br />As for autos a pool of state vehicles to be used for state business only should not be a problem. Compact economy cars and enforced business only use would be cost effective versus paying mileage.Tehachapi Tomnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4425587034622601550.post-66513877855909392682011-04-18T11:58:13.440-04:002011-04-18T11:58:13.440-04:00I want to be sure to wish our Jewish friends a joy...I want to be sure to wish our Jewish friends a joyous Passover.

I'm so desperate to see something, anything, cut from our state expenditures that this seems like a gigantic oasis in the middle of the Sahara. I'm pretty sure that's how they soften us up. Steal $1,000 out of our wallets, then give us back a $1.00 bill in hopes we won't be too angry.LawHawkRFDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17800255923675295515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4425587034622601550.post-43758842694495762242011-04-18T11:40:12.808-04:002011-04-18T11:40:12.808-04:00Well, I'm glad to see that California has righ...Well, I'm glad to see that California has righted it's economic ship.

Unfortunately the welfare workers liked the idea so much that they wanted a piece of the action. Then the legislators who voted the funds for it wanted their piece. Pretty soon, the only people who got nothing for something were the taxpayers who pay for the whole mess. <br /><br />At least Californians have this one commission that actually understands that its responsibility is to cut waste, wean public officials off the heroin perks, and promote some fiscal responsibility. How long that will last is another story. Right now, Republicans control the commission. But there will soon be two vacancies, and Jerry Brown sure won't be appointing any conservatives.LawHawkRFDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17800255923675295515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4425587034622601550.post-28341631262169182172011-04-18T11:23:12.116-04:002011-04-18T11:23:12.116-04:00Tennessee: Yeah, I have to laugh or otherwise I&#...Tennessee: Yeah, I have to laugh or otherwise I'd be boo-hooing all the time.LawHawkRFDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17800255923675295515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4425587034622601550.post-36300040375971628692011-04-18T11:22:50.127-04:002011-04-18T11:22:50.127-04:00Oh, NOOOO!!!!

What will the poor legislators do now that they can't drive free cars all over the state to consult their prostitutes, I mean constituents?? <br /><br />More seriously, I'm with Jed. This story really isn't funny, because it just proves that when it comes time to address not these frills, but the real core problems--entitlement programs and such--these idiots will not accept reality. They will stop up the government machinery, try to confiscate all the rich people's income and property--anything that will keep the flow of things owed to them and their supporters going. Good thing the federal government doesn't have that problem...T_Ravnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4425587034622601550.post-41532537566980392492011-04-18T09:22:58.208-04:002011-04-18T09:22:58.208-04:00Thanks for the chuckle, Hawk-- although the situat...Thanks for the chuckle, Hawk-- although the situation makes one cry because of the underlying seriousness.Tennessee Jedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10604275115906776992noreply@blogger.com
