1. You have to be against capital punishment, but support abortion on demand. 2. You have to believe that businesses create oppression and governments create prosperity. 3. You have to believe that guns in the hands of law-abiding citizens are more of a threat than U.S. nuclear weapons technology in the hands of Iran or Chinese and North Korean communists. 4. You have to believe that there was no art before federal funding. 5. You have to believe that global temperatures are less affected by cyclical changes in the earth's climate and more affected by soccer moms driving SUV's. 6. You have to believe that gender roles are artificial, but being homosexual is natural. 7. You have to believe that the AIDS virus is spread by a lack of federal funding. 8.

You have to believe that Mel Gibson spent $25 million of his own money to make "The Passion of the Christ" for financial gain only. 12.

Repukes abandon electoral power grab in CA
Scared by increasing scrutiny by the press and stunningly low
donations from rich right wing loonies, as well as a potentially embarrassing lump of funds from a shady "swift boat" non-profit corporation formed just one day before they made a $175K donation, the right wingers set upon making California's electoral votes proportional versus "winner take all" suffered a death knell today when their two top organizers and fund raisers quit, leaving the campaign rudderless and far short of the projected goal in voter signatures. The initiative would have apportioned California's 55 electoral votes according to Congressional district rather than all delegates being assigned to whichever candidate got the most votes in the entire state. While one could argue that this is a more "democratic" way of assigning delegates, it only works fairly if ALL states go that route. Currently, only Maine and Nebraska, two "fly over" states, do this, with all the rest being "winner take all." The net effect desired by the organizers of this sham initiative was to give the Republican candidate in the '08 election about 19 of California's usually Democratic delegates, thus awarding them a number that roughly would equal the entire delegation of Ohio. This would give the GOP nominee an unfair advantage in delegate count, since 47 other state do NOT do this. Although they tried to operate mostly in secret, the LA Times and Sacramento Bee both did some investigative stories regarding this "stealth" maneuver, which scared away reliable right wing rich donors, who feared exposure. The "day old corporation" that gave the $175K refused to divulge the names of the donors to that fund in violation of Federal and state laws. It is rumored that none other than Karl Rove and several of the "swift boaters" involved in the "swift boating" of John Kerry in '04 are behind this sham. It is suspected by many that a non-stated reason that Rove left the West Wing was to spend more time working on such "stealth" and "swift boat" operations to try to steal the White House for the GOP in the '08 election cycle. Of course, the Republican operatives still involved in the campaign said in this morning's LA Times that they will "keep the money." How could we expect anything else from right wing whack jobs like them? Democratic pols in California said they will continue monitoring the activities of this group, regardless of their current troubles, noting that they could be trying a "Freddie Kruger" stealth move, planning to come back later with more funding from questionable and untraceable sources, to try to get the measure to qualify for the June ballot. |
