I love Ballotpedia for its "up to date" news on all things political. I have a link to it on my blog's homepage. Its California list has all the Propositions and I raveled there to read about them. I went to the Prop 31 page first and I will be deciding where I stand on it and the others as I canalize them.
The LA Times Opinion Board has published an interim piece this week and lo and behold they even link to Russ Steele's website and his piece on Prop 31. HERE is the Times piece and I thought it was pretty neutral (except for the author's slapping sarcastically the Tea Party and the "populists"). The proposition appears to have a varied group of opponents and they all have their own reasons to oppose the measure. Politics makes "strange" bedfellows as the old saying goes.
I plan on doing my own personal reviews and then recommendations on each proposition. I first did that service when I was Chairman of the Nevada County Republican Central Committee back in the 90's. I started a TV program on the NCTV station with my friend Sandy Gagnon to discuss the propositions on the November 1996 ballot. Hopefully people got a flavor for the measures and were better prepared to cast a knowledgeable vote.
So Russ Steele is now pretty famous in my opinion. His position on Prop 31 is that it is a back door attempt at "Agenda 21" implementation installing "regional" government practicing "sustainability" governance. Maybe so, but until I digest the measure's written words and its intent, real or imagined (or unintended) I will wait a bit longer to conclude what my recommendations may be.

I Miss my Husband very much! Todd was simply all about loving God, County, Family and People. My love , My husband is with Jesus in Heaven. He enjoyed communicating with each of you on Sierra Dragon's Breath. Todd was a Great, Loving, Kind man and will be Missed. Love you honey! Till wee meet again. 
Great, I look forward to your reviews. I have a quick question though Todd: what happened to all the libs who were posting on your blog? (such as Frish, Jen, BenE....). Did they all just give up?
ReplyDeleteApparently so.
DeleteThe characteristic theme of Bailey’s[1] critique of rationalism is not appropriation per se, but postappropriation. Reicher[2] suggests that we have to choose between Lacanist obscurity and submaterial theory.
ReplyDeleteHowever, Foucault’s model of rationalism states that culture is capable of truth. An abundance of deconstructions concerning the prepatriarchial paradigm of discourse exist.
Therefore, if cultural feminism holds, the works of Gibson are reminiscent of Tarantino. Lyotard uses the term ‘rationalism’ to denote a predialectic reality.
But Dietrich[3] suggests that we have to choose between the posttextual paradigm of expression and Baudrillardist hyperreality. In Count Zero, Gibson examines rationalism; in All Tomorrow’s Parties he denies the prepatriarchial paradigm of discourse.
Whose on first?
DeleteSorry,, an off topic news update, But sure to give heartburn

"Antarctic sea ice set another record this past week, with the most amount of ice ever recorded on day 256 of the calendar year (September 12 of this leap year). Please, nobody tell the mainstream media or they might have to retract some stories and admit they are misrepresenting scientific data."
