[quote=poorgradstudent][quote=flu]Actually, I’m more curious… How the hell did Filner pull ahead of DeMaio!!!!![/quote]
People realized DeMaio is a huge turd?
I’m not actually a big Filner fan. But DeMaio is just… slimy.[/quote]Well, at least he didn’t vote to give himself a raise.

Well, across our State, San Diego looks like an anomaly.
It appears that along with Prop 30, most local Bond measures passed. $100 Million School Bonds are common.
$350 Million for Cerritos College district.
$93 million for Lynwood
$63 million for Lancaster
$63 million for Redondo Beach
$159 Million for Rowland
$128 million for Temple City
$55 million for Whittier
$79 million for Bellflower
$129 million for Covina
$220 million for Palmdale Elementary
$18 million for Little Lake School District (doesn’t sound like much but it was a total of less 8000 votes)
$385 million Santa Monica/Malibu
$90 million for InglewoodOC looks much the same

Yea, at least the money is local. But, look at that Government spending coming to the trough. I know our local SD had $135 million for ‘technology’ approved, it’s $5000 for every student in the system.
Sadly, this dumb money is too late to get part of that gravy boat. Think about it, one local school district is going to be spending $135 million. And the next ‘town’ over spending another $90 million.
Statewide, it is $14.8 Billion in School bonds.

“The most disturbing issue of the election was how President Obama managed to win re-election in places like Ohio and Pennsylvania and Michigan by talking about the highly unpopular bailout of General Motors. By taking billions of dollars in hard-earned money from taxpayers during a deep recession and giving it to a couple of huge companies, Obama managed to buy the votes he needed to eke out re-election. Taxpayers remain on the hook to the tune of $25 billion.”

The way we got involved in investing in movie deals actually came about through friends/neighbors who are in the business, as well as through two of our kids who are also involved in the corporate side of the entertainment business.
It’s a very guarded, “who you know” kind of group who are involved, so it wasn’t easy to break in, but now, we’re really enjoying it.
Although it seemed extremely risky to us at
first–it has proven to be one of the best things we’ve ever done–and extremely fun and interesting.November 7, 2012 at 5:09 PM #754052flyerParticipant[quote=Zeitgeist][img_assist|nid=16836|title=Merry Christmas!|desc=|link=node|align=left|width=100|height=51]

Follow us: @washtimes on Twitter[/quote]Good article, Zeitgeist.
More proof that elections have simply become “popularity contests.”
I can’t believe people are so excited about this election, when most of them are further away from achieving “The American Dream” than ever.
Regardless of whom anyone voted for, one of the worst things about the direction we’re headed is, that, most people in this country–especially going forward–will never know what it’s like to live the “American Dream,” to the level my generation did–and that’s sad.
Blame whomever you want for that–but you either achieve your dreams or you don’t–and, IMO, no politician will be able to change that now, so “dream on.”
November 7, 2012 at 6:40 PM #754054ZeitgeistParticipantAbsolutely. But what hasn’t become that during the last 20 years. The news people are just good looking readers, who if perchance they begin to ad lib about a news story, usually end up sounding pretty lame. Most of the real journalists are gone. Starting with high school it is all about popularity, so now the campaigns are mirroring the same trend. We shall see how this works out in the real world. I think it started with the demise of newspapers and real reporters and is continuing. The Internet is a bright spot, but who knows what is real and what completely manufactured by the poster. I hope the next generation can fix what we have left them in the way of debt. Most of us hope for a better future for our kids after all.

Not really, the new American Dream is to take money from successful people and then live off of the welfare state.
I’d sat they’re doing quite well.
