California Supreme Court Ends Rules Governing Initiative Submissions/Wild West

By Stephen Frank on Jun 07, 2016 07:59 pm
Until the California Supreme Court ruling last week in regard to the proposed Jerry Brown “Get Out of Jail Free” for criminals ballot measure, the State of California had rules—so everybody knew what they had to do to qualify a measure for the ballot.  Now, there are no rules, like the classic Bushs’ Baked Beans […]

Court Cuts Wind Farm by 25%—Dramatically Raises Cost of Energy for Public

By Stephen Frank on Jun 07, 2016 07:46 pm
Arnold, the professional fondler and amateur governor, along with the really confused Jerry Brown have decreed that 33% of all energy in the State come from alternative energy sources, like wind turbines.  So, when a massive wind farm is cut by 25% by a court, the cost of the energy that is produced is raised, […]

No Teachers Union in Clovis–Students Learn!

By Stephen Frank on Jun 07, 2016 07:38 pm
