I thought some of you might need a little pick me up on Friday. Something to get your blood flowing and your spirits in a jive fashion. If this little music video doesn’t make you bob your head like a chicken, then check your pulse.
The Republicans are taking us down a slippery slope. Normally when a politician is voted into office, those that didn’t vote for them have to wait to the next election to try to fire them. Unless you’re a Republican. Then you just recall the election and flood the ballot with your own candidates.
Governor Davis was elected into office for a second term last year. Republicans are now recalling the election in an attempt to displace democracy and our election system.
The main reason Republicans are recalling the election is the pour economic conditions of California. Let’s analyze this.
A one-time popular politician was narrowly voted into office. Since he has taken the helm there have been record deficits and an energy crisis. All his attempts are turning the economic woes around have failed.
Who are we talking about again? Governor Davis or President Bush?
After three tax cuts that have had no effect on the economy, even a poorly trained monkey in a diaper would have realized from the lack of cause & effect that it’s not working. Instead we are being left with one of the largest budget deficits in history.
Let’s not forget he was voted into office with only 531 more votes than Al Gore. So here Bush sits. Voted into office by a very narrow victory, unable to fix a failing economy and gas prices are flirting with $1.90 (here in central Ohio anyway).
What should we do? Recall Bush?
This is a dangerous path the Republicans are taking us down. Now, instead of going from one election to another, campaigning to get your person in office, you can simple recall the vote if you don’t like the job they are doing. Is this a precedent we want to set?
California, here is your solution. Vote for the porn star. Forget Arnold. Even forget Gray Davis. Vote for the porn star. Send a message nationwide that we don’t the elections of the people tampered with. No party can be a sore looser. One report says that the recall will cost $65 million. Turn the mockery into an embarrassment for the establishment. Let them know that you, the voter, can’t be pushed around.
I love new technology. Especially when I can bend it to my will.
