Little Girl and Congressman
A Congressman was seated next to a little girl on an airplane when he turned to her and said, "Let's talk. I've heard that flights go quicker if you strike up a conversation with your fellow passenger." The little girl, who had just opened her book, closed it slowly and said to the total stranger, "What do you want to talk about? " "Oh, I don't know," said the congressman. " How about global warming or universal health care?" and he smiles smugly. "OK," she said. "Those could be interesting topics. But let me ask you a question first. A horse, a cow and a deer all eat the same stuff- grass. Yet a deer excretes little pellets, while a cow turns out a flat patty, and a horse produces clumps of dried grass. Why do you suppose that is?" The legislator, visibly surprised by the little girl's intelligence, thinks about it and says," Hmmm, I have no idea." To which the little girl replies, "Do you really feel qualified to discuss global warming or universal health care when you don't know shit?"
"ready for the revolution?" (U.S.A.)
ok, are you ready? fuck this shit, really, costs 90 cents to spend a ten dollar bill, the state is bankrupt because we are a welfare state, trashdiggers pushing shopping carts around to get beer money, illegal immigrants getting paid cash to work then getting all the free shit they can like welfare, food stamps and medi-cal, gas prices go up just because people are all going on vacation, what politician is willing to stand up and say,"READY FOR THE REVOLUTION," because things are going to have to change or it will all be too fucked up to even start, thanks
The Law of the Garbage Truck! (Everywhere....Everyday)
The Law of the Garbage Truck !
One day I hopped in a taxi and we took off for the airport. We were driving in the right lane when suddenly a black car jumped out of a parking space right in front of us.
My taxi driver slammed on his breaks, skidded, and missed the other car by just inches! The driver of the other car whipped his head around and started yelling at us. My taxi driver just smiled and waved at the guy. And I mean, he was really friendly.
So I asked, 'Why did you just do that? This guy almost ruined your car and sent us to the hospital!' This is when my taxi driver taught me what I now call, 'The Law of the Garbage Truck.'
He explained that many people are like garbage trucks. They run around full of garbage, full of frustration, full of anger, and full of disappointment. As their garbage piles up, they need a place to dump it and sometimes they'll dump it on you.
Don't take it personally. Just smile, wave, wish them well, and move on. Don't take their garbage and spread it to other people at work, at home or on the streets.
The bottom line is that successful people do not let garbage trucks take over their day. Life's too short to wake up in the morning with regrets, so..... 'Love the people who treat you right.. Pray for the ones who don't.'
Life is ten percent what you make it and ninety percent how you take it.

that you are single, cuz of the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) ,Don't ask, don't tell (DADT)
so taxes fuck everyone and even more so the gay famillys out there!
"“Each tax season, same-sex couples sit at their dining room tables and are forced to live a legal lie by checking ‘single’ despite their decades together—arbitrarily dividing up their joint household’s income, expenses, and dependents,” states MEUSA Media Director Molly McKay. “Even in states with domestic partnerships or civil unions, we still have to check ‘single’ on our tax forms because our federal government doesn’t consider us a family. Then we write checks to the IRS for higher social security taxes because we can’t file jointly, knowing that when we die our families will not even have access to any of the family ‘safety net’ benefits provided by our tax dollars in the form of social security survivor benefits, estate tax deferral, and other programs that we help fund with our tax dollars—but which only heterosexual married couples and their children will enjoy.”
Join us this tax day (Thursday, April 15th) as local chapters stand up and speak out about this discrimination that faces same-sex couples.

Stop The Census - Nothing But Fraud
Millions of Americans are hot over the census. First, their homes are entered into a GPS tracking device without permission. No where in the U.S. Constitution does it authorize such a data base be complied regarding the taking of the census:
Art. 1, Sec. 2, Clause 3: http://www.house.gov/house/Constitution/Constitution.html
And, equally as important:
Art. 1, Sec. 9: Clause 4: No Capitation, or other direct, Tax shall be laid, unless in Proportion to the Census or Enumeration herein before directed to be taken. (See Note 7) [1]
Note 7: Note 7: This Clause has been affected by amendment XVI.
There is no question the Sixteenth Amendment (XVI) was never properly ratified and is a law that never was.[2]
However, moving on from that fraud, no where do we see in Art. 1, Sec. 2, Clause 3 what we see on the official U.S. Census site or the propaganda (radio and TV commercials); I'll get to that in a moment. First, I want you to read the following excerpt from pages 41-46 of Vivien Kellems book, Toil, Taxes and Trouble, published in 1952:
"Since a capitation means a tax of the same amount for every person, this provision makes doubly sure that all federal taxes must be at the same uniform rate for everybody. This limitation that direct taxes be levied by the Federal Government must be in proportion to a census and apportioned among the States in accordance with numbers, is the only provision in the Constitution that is stated twice.
"The only reason that our Constitution required a census to be taken every ten years was to count the people to determine how many Representatives should go to Congress, and how direct taxes should be levied. I wonder how many Americans thought of this in 1950 when those little busybodies came knocking on their doors, asking ten thousand impudent, silly questions which were none of their, or Washington's, business.
"There is absolutely no power granted in the Constitution which enables a top-heavy bureaucracy of empty-headed simpletons, and worse, to invade the privacy of the American people in such a monstrous manner.
"This census is just a preview of what is really in store for us if they actually take over, which they most certainly will do unless we uproot and vote them out.
"The census was to count the people - that was all. The number of people determined the number of Representatives in Congress and the apportionment of direct taxes among the states.
"For a long time I asked myself, 'Why were Representatives and direct taxes linked together and apportioned among the States in accordance with population?' It was understandable that Representatives should be chosen in accordance with numbers but why should taxes be apportioned the same way? And then one day, out of the blue, it came to me crystal clear. All at once I understood the plan to safeguard the future freedom of the nation, conceived and executed by those scholarly men.
"I read again: 'Representatives and direct taxes shall be included within this Union, according to their respective numbers...' 'No capitation, or other direct tax shall be laid, unless in proportion to the Census of Enumeration hereinbefore directed to be taken.' And in those two sentences our forefathers bound fast the hands of Congress and secured the liberty and freedom of the American people. How? By making it utterly impossible to levy an income tax."[3]
It is for the reasons above the Sixteenth Amendment was declared ratified in 1913. The Federal Reserve Banking Act was passed at the 11th hour in December the same year. The "income tax" law to steal the fruits of our labor to enrich an international banking cartel by hijacking of our monetary system.
Propaganda
Have you heard the commercials? "If a school gets 100 new students and you don't fill out the census, we won't get that extra money from the federal government." How many of those students are illegal aliens who have NO right to sit in any classroom at any level of school in this country? 20? 40? Most certainly in the border states. You, me and our children and grand children are to be raped to pay for these illegals stealing our education resources. That is NOT what the census is about.
Here's another outrage: Mexican children cross border to go to school
http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/metropolitan/4758501.html
"For the past two years, Rachel Ortiz's commute to her El Paso school has begun each morning in Mexico. As the sun rises over that side of the Rio Grande, the first-grader follows her father from their cinder-block home through the streets of Ciudad Juarez.
"Aaron Ortiz holds his 6-year-old's pink backpack and later her hand. At the border they funnel onto the pedestrian bridge alongside dozens of other children with backpacks holding parents' hands. Then they are on the other side, saying goodbye at the gates of Vilas Elementary, where breakfast is served free and special classes are offered for English-language learners."
The corrupt, smarmy professional politician, Governor Rick Perry of Texas, just won his primary. Perry, along with the blessing of our state legislature has allowed sickening practice this to continue. Those kids illegally enter our country and then steal our tax dollars for "free" education and meals.
Texans: Where is your outrage? It may not bother you, but I resent the hell out of my tax dollars being used to facilitate illegals, regardless of age, coming across our national border.
This commercial makes me want to gag: If you don't fill out the census and our town needs new stop lights, our community won't get the federal money. Stand up and be counted!
Those commercials come in all flavors: Get your money now! It doesn't matter that 90% of all spending by the Outlaw Congress is illegal under the Constitution. It doesn't matter that Congress as NO authority to steal the fruits of your labor in Terra Haute, IN to send to Yakima, Washington, to install traffic lights in that city. There is some $400 BILLION "dollars" at stake. The only problem: Since there is no money in the treasury, that "money" will have to be borrowed and the interest slapped on our backs, our children and grand children will continue to grow exponentially into hundreds more billions.
It doesn't matter that YOUR congress critter's job isn't to "bring home the bacon." Americans who have no understanding of the history of this republic and too many who frankly don't care, are so used to the thieves in Washington, DC., stealing the fruits of our labor, they demand it now as some sort of right.
As the people's purse, the U.S. Treasury, is overdrawn $12.5 TRILLION "dollars" as I write this, and unfunded mandates are close to $107 TRILLION "dollars" [4] - just where do the American people think all this confetti (worthless fiat currency called "Federal" Reserve Notes) is going to come from -- like the much touted cencus bags of bux --- and how will it get repaid?
Back in 2004, Carolyn Lochhead did a superb, short piece that shook up a whole lot of people: Speeches ignore impending U.S. debt disaster / No mention of fiscal gap estimated as high as $72 trillion [5]:
"A pathbreaking study by Jagadeesh Gokhale of the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland and Kent Smetters, a former deputy assistant secretary at the Treasury -- commissioned by former Treasury Secretary Paul O'Neill -- estimated a $44 trillion fiscal gap. It laid out a few painful options on how to meet the liabilities:
More than double the payroll tax, immediately and forever, from 15.3 percent of wages to nearly 32 percent;
-- Raise income taxes by two-thirds, immediately and forever;
-- Cut Social Security and Medicare benefits by 45 percent, immediately and forever;
-- Or eliminate forever all discretionary spending, which includes the military, homeland security, highways, courts, national parks and most of what the federal government does outside of the transfer of payments to the elderly.
"Such corrective actions grow more severe each year. Waiting just until 2008, the end of the next presidency, would mean raising the payroll tax to 33. 5 percent instead of 32 percent, the study found.
"Gokhale said that fresh numbers from the Medicare trustees show the fiscal gap has since grown to $72 trillion, $10 trillion of that for Social Security and an astonishing $62 trillion for Medicare, the government health care program for the elderly. Rest at link below.
Lochhead wasn't blowing smoke when she wrote that column six years ago. Tens of millions of Americans blew their stacks back in August 2008 because they're finally coming to understand the significance of this massive and unpayable debt Congress, the usurper in the White House and his predecessors for decades have heaped upon we the people.
Remember: Right now, today, YOU are still working to pay "your fair share" to the government in taxes. You will still have to work another four months for "Uncle Sam," the International Monetary Fund, the communist UN, the World Bank, dictators throughout the world and tens of billions in foreign "aid".
I say unpayable debt because it is unpayable. The Tax Foundation came out with another reality check, March 12, 2010:
Washington, DC, March 12, 2010 -- "Federal income tax rates would have to be more than doubled across the income spectrum if Congress were to close the deficit in fiscal year 2010, according to a new report from the nonpartisan Tax Foundation. Instead of taxing joint filers with rates ranging from 10 percent to 35 percent, tax rates would have to start at 24.3 percent and reach up to 84.9 percent....
"Even in 2012, when the President's budget projects a lower deficit, tax rates would still be need to be prohibitively high in order to balance the budget, with rates ranging from 15.8 percent to 62.6 percent.
"Average tax payments would have to rise by almost $10,000 in 2010 to erase the deficit. The average tax payment of a tax filer making between $75,000 and $100,000 would increase by $11,164. Taxpayers with AGIs over $1 million would see their tax bills climb by $969, 505.
"If high-income people had to pay a federal tax rate ranging from 65 percent to 85 percent, adding on an 8 percent rate in most states plus local income taxes and payroll taxes would push tax rates close to 100 percent for some households.
"At some point, government would be taking away all earnings and there would be no incentive to work," Ahern said. "There can be little doubt that the high tax rates necessary to balance the budget in the next several years would discourage all income-producing endeavors." [6]

That waste comes from the sweat off your back. Our children and their children will inherit the interest on all those tens of millions.
The whole process is a fraud
Why do I say that? Let's look at the definition of fraud: deceit, trickery, sharp practice, or breach of confidence, perpetrated for profit or to gain some unfair or dishonest advantage.
The Constitution limits the question to only how many people live in a dwelling (House, tent, apartment, boat, whatever) for the purpose of congressional representation. It does not in any way authorize what has been the census information gathering of past decades. It is deceit and trickery. It is also to gain an unfair advantage and by this, I mean the counting of criminals (illegal aliens) who have NO right to even be in this country:
With Money on the Line, Local Governments Urge Illegal Immigrants to Fill Out Census. "Cities, counties and states that haven't been very kind to illegal immigrants over the years are suddenly dusting off their welcome mats. With the 2010 census about to get under way, those undocumented residents will be worth a lot of money for the next few weeks." [7]
I damn near burst an artery when I read that article, which contains this quote: "It helps us build our hospitals, schools, parks, libraries," said Michael Nowakowski, vice mayor of the city of Phoenix and the point person for the census on the City Council." According to that news item, "Phoenix officials estimate every resident counted is worth about $400 in government funding."
ANY elected official who is part of this outrage is in violation of federal law: a person who aids and abets an illegal alien for financial gain can go to prison. But, wait! It gets even better:
U.S. Census Director Tour Assures Illegal Immigrants
"Keeping with the Obama Administration's mission to conduct the most diverse outreach campaign in history, the director of the U.S. Census Bureau is touring Mexican border towns with high illegal immigrant populations to personally assure that those who fill out questionnaires this spring will not be deported.
"This is a safe thing for everyone to do regardless of your immigration status," the president's handpicked census director (Robert Groves) told residents of a renowned illegal alien "colonia" in south Texas this week. He visited several dilapidated makeshift homes off of a dirt road in a Laredo neighborhood called San Carlos to stress that census data will be kept confidential and not turned over to immigration authorities.
"Even if the president of the United States asks him for their census forms, Groves told the Spanish-speaking crowd, he can refuse because the law says the forms must be kept private. If he violates that sacred law, Groves further informed the attentive illegal immigrants, he can go to prison. Besides, citizenship status is not even asked on the census questionnaire, assured the Texas congressman (Chicano rights activist Henry Cuellar) who accompanied Groves on this particular jaunt.
"The census director is also giving illegal immigrants across the country a lesson in basic civics by explaining that hundreds of billions of federal dollars are allocated to state and local governments based on population. Being included in the decennial count will in turn allow them to receive more public benefits; "We want to count you and your family can benefit from the services," Groves is telling illegal aliens.
"This marks the latest of many administration efforts to cater to illegal immigrants. A few weeks ago the government launched an unprecedented $133 million advertising campaign-in dozens of languages-to promote the census with the Spanish ads assuring the decennial count is confidential and cannot divulge respondents' immigration status.
"The never-before-seen promotional blitz includes television commercials, print and outdoor ads as well as online advertising. Hundreds of ads have been drafted in 28 languages, including two Chinese dialects, Russian, Arabic and Tagolog. The Spanish advertisements, distributed on national television and print media, are of particular interest because they guarantee the safety of illegal aliens who fill out the census forms.
"A few months ago the government announced that, in an effort to reach out to illegal aliens, it is spending $26 million to send Spanish-language questionnaires directly to homes for the first time in history. In past years, participants could request special forms in several languages-including Spanish, Chinese, Korean and Vietnamese-but the effort marks the first time that the government sends to entire regions census questionnaires in a language other than English." [8]
"...most diverse outreach campaign..." Make me vomit. This has to be one of the most egregious actions by a director in the federal government, yet where is the outcry? The Director of the Census Bureau is touring in an effort to tell ILLEGAL aliens the federal government will protect them even though these thieves have NO right to even be in this country. He's telling those criminals who smuggle themselves across our borders, stealing jobs that belong to Americans and sucking our resources dry (medical, education, incarceration), that they need to be counted in our census so more of your hard earned paycheck will benefit them financially!
Will there be any outrage over this?
I called my brain dead U.S. rep in DC. His staffer said they knew nothing about this. Well, damn it -- it's their job to know. Any elected official from mayors to the Director of the Census Bureau aiding and abetting illegals in this census taking should be indicted by the Department of Justice. Should be. Demand it!

Of all the articles and columns I combed through, I feel one written by Robert Greenslade, provides not only an excellent historical background, but also the law and what the Census says about fines and enforcement:
Civil Disobedience and the Census
http://www.lewrockwell.com/spl2/census-civil-disobedience.html
What will I do with the census form I received in the mail addressed to Resident?
I will NOT fill out the census form, but will instead, provide a cover letter stating two adults live in the house at XXXXX, Big Spring, Texas. I will respond to a constitutional requirement, but I will not surrender to some government agency because it's the path of least resistance.
Every time you give up your rights, this tyrannical government will continue to feast on your carcass until there's nothing left but chains of bondage.

Hell-Care
As a practicing physician I have major concerns with the health care bill before Congress. I actually have read the bill and am shocked by the brazenness of the government's proposed involvement in the patient-physician relationship. The very idea that the government will dictate and ration patient care is dangerous and certainly not helpful in designing a health care system that works for all. Every physician I work with agrees that we need to fix our health care system, but the proposed bills currently making their way through congress will be a disaster if passed.
I ask you respectfully and as a patriotic American to look at the following troubling lines that I have read in the bill. You cannot possibly believe that these proposals are in the best interests of the country and our fellow citizens.
Page 22 of the HC Bill:
Mandates that the Govt will audit books of all employers that self-insure!!

Doctors/ American Medical Association - The Govt will tell YOU what salary you can make.
Page 145 Line 15-17:
An Employer MUST auto-enroll employees into public option plan. (NO choice!)
Page 126 Lines 22-25:
Employers MUST pay for HC for part-time employees AND their families. (Employees shouldn't get excited about this as employers will be forced to reduce their work force, benefits, and wages/salaries to cover such a huge expense.)
Page 149 Lines 16-24:
ANY Employer with payroll $401k & above, who does not provide public option, will pay 8% tax on all payroll! (See the last comment in parenthesis.)

(Americans will pay.) (Like always)
Page 195 HC Bill:
Officers & employees of the GOVT HC Admin.. will have access to ALL Americans' finances and personal records. (I guess so they can 'deduct' their fees)
Page 203 Line 14-15 HC:
"The tax imposed under this section shall not be treated as tax."
(Yes, it really says that!) ( a 'fee' instead)
Page 239 Line 14-24 HC Bill:

Page 335 L 16-25 Pg 336-339: The Govt mandates establishment of 2 outcome-based measures. (HC the way they want -- rationing.)
Page 341 Lines 3-9: The Govt has authority to disqualify Medicare Advance Plans, HMOs, etc. (Forcing people into the Govt plan)
Page 354 Sec 1177: The Govt will RESTRICT enrollment of 'special needs people!' Unbelievable!
Page 379 Sec 1191: The Govt creates more bureaucracy via a "Tele-Health Advisory Committee." (Can you say HC by phone?)
Page 425 Lines 4-12: The Govt mandates "Advance-Care Planning Consult." (Think senior citizens end-of-life patients.)

(Also called 'assisted suicide'...Sounds like Soylent Green to me.)

Look, Tubby.
I don't care who's hood you were denting in the photo I just noticed the dent.
I don't know why you are mad at me. You asked for opinion.
I gave. Did you think everyone was going to lie to you and tell you what you want to hear?
Leave me alone, I was just trying to be honest with you and you went off the hook.
BTW. We all know why you only posted a Phace shot. Because you're fat!
And yes it is 2010 and yes it does matter that you have no self control when it comes to eating. (To decent guys)
Decent People (everywhere)
I totally agree with you... everyone seems too play the blame game... but when you have been mistreated without fault being on your end its easy too point fingers. I agree no one is perfect and everyone makes mistakes but in my case it has been the men who have made the mistakes, not me! SO i am defintely the victim... part of the problem is men my age are young and sometimes dumb and i get that.. point blank is people need too follow the golden rule and treat people the way they would like to be treated.
Whenever i have questions, comments, or i just need to vent i turn too the craigslist community, unfortunately there is always going to be simple minded induvidulas like the man who replied to my post first. People in general Man/Woman all make mistakes but thats what makes us human...
if you love life and you love yourself and you treat people with respect... in the end you will be victorious!!
Miss Tulare XOXO!~

XOXO MISSY.. OTHERWISE KNOWN AS MISS TULARE!!!~
Decent People (Everywhere)
Would love to hear everyone's response to this....
The problem with peoples views about each other is that the accusing side never thinks that they are the same. Too many times I hear that men are the leaders at fault for the way things are. That may be true but let me point something out. Part of my "decency" problems as a man started when I fell in love with an unfaithful woman who proceeded to cheat on me more times then I would care to know. Men go into relationships thinking a Woman wont change, Women go into a relationship thinking that the Man will Change; Both find out they were wrong. Each should take full responsibility for their own actions in order to change what they disagree with going on around them. If you want to find a good women/man, then be one worth having. Fix yourself. Regain those morals you lost. Be honest with those around you. Then maybe someone will see your worth as a loving partner. I have yet to find an honest and faithful women who loves and cares for a man as much I would for her. I am in the same boat. But I would never let someone's unfaithfulness or degraded morals change me. Till I find the right person, I will still be the upstanding gentleman and caring person I have always been. And you should too....
RE: DECENT MAN ((TULARE!~ ))
You asked.
I replied.
I don't want you.
I have a beautiful wife and family which I would NEVER trade for your fat arse. ( Or any one else's either)
You ARE fat. You have posted pics before. I have (unfortunately) seen them. You were denting the the hood of some poor sap's hood. (Probably some African American's)
Lose some weight and race WON'T matter. White guys will want you too!
I was volunteering information. Honestly, you asked for the information, I'm a decent guy, I gave it too you I do have kids but ALL of them are cared for by me and I WORK for a living.
Don't castigate me for my honesty.
Fat is fat and you are so don't be mad at me because the truth is the truth.
DECENT MAN (TULARE!~ )
why should the race of a MAN matter...
in my opinion what makes a man... is not the color of his skin
or the money in his pocket! Its how they handle business..and how they live theyre life... unfortunately FOR you... something i said HIT HOME!
SO either you are jobless...or maybe an african american is doing better than you! And for your info.. im not fat! LOL>>
Ill tell you what how about you post a picture of yourself..a real one.. and ill post a picture of myself and we'll let the craigslist community decide,,,!!~ ????
Sounds like a good idea too me... OH and the only people who throw out insults on craiglist are really insecure with themselves... or theyre lives...??
Which one are you??
Hopefully you have a nice day...
since its looks like your life has been nothing but a waist of time..!!~
MISS TULARE XOXO!!!~
Re: What happened to a decent MAN!~ ((Tulare))
What ever happened to women who are not 5o+ pounds overweight who if they are, also know that they are NOT "easy on the eyes"?
You're are only easy on the eyes of african american men. They like fat chicks who can fry a chicken and they don't pay for their own kids.
Lose some lbs, get an education and then try to find a guy who doesn't have a million kids and has a job. It will be MUCH easier.
The fact that you are fat speaks to your self control issues. Decent men aren't attracted to women with (huge self) control issues. Get the pun, Tubby?
What happened to a decent MAN!~ (Tulare)
It seems like as the times change... it gets harder and harder to find a decent man in Tulare..I moved here as a little girl and it was a perfect sweet town where it seemed like everybody knew everybody and everybody was polite and courteous. WOW have the times changed! Its seems like a decent MAN doesn't exist anymore....! I'm a decent girl with good values..and very sweet ON the eyes if I might add... anywhere else it would be totally easy to find a decent HARDWORKING MAN...WITHOUT A MILLION KIDS AND A J-O-B!~
MEN.... PLEASE STEP UP YOUR GAME... YOU ARE GIVING THE TOWN I LOVE SOO MUCH A BAD RAP!!~

thats what happen in the Measure H fund
everyone acts like it's a big surprise that politicians did this they do it all the time...just look at the Tulare County Board of Supervisors
how come the teabaggers are not all up in this shit the governmental crack down starts at the local level
i think both the City Council and The Transaction and Use Tax Oversight Committee didn't do there job
and The Transaction and Use Tax Oversight Committee waitted to long to act on this! like the people voted for in the first place!
""Measure H includes strong fiscal accountability requirements, such as annual, independent financial audits and an independent Citizen’s Oversight Committee to guarantee that all funds are spent as promised. All funds will be deposited into a separate Public Safety Trust Fund to ensure money cannot be used for anything other than what you have approved."
http://www.tularecoelections.org/measures/English/m051108H.htm#BALLOT%20TEXT"
and i'm all about working together to stop the bipartisan paralysis here so lets work on how to fix this and do better!
pay back the money that was not used like measure H and what the voters thought they were votting on we are just voters not gypsy
then the Committee and City Council need to sit down ( oh i know it;s hard greg) on and agree to what the short trem plan is about the money and they can stop this from happening agian like maybe telling the committe if they have something they would like to use the measure H tax money on first then go from there
or with the report that the committee gave to council let the INTERNAL CITY AUDIT COMMITEE go over it and make a finding to the city coucil too
so you can have a 3rd committe look into if " peter and paul are really doing right or wrong....with our tax money

Measure H Oversight Committee critical of spending
Recommend 0
March 16, 2010 10:02 AM
BY JENNA CHANDLER
THE PORTERVILLE RECORDER
A draft report issued Monday evening by the Measure H Oversight Committee details what the committee says is evidence that the City Council’s fiscal year 2008-2009 expenditures of a special sales tax enacted by voters in 2005 are not consistent with the ballot measure.
Primarily, the committee is concerned with how the Transactions and use Tax money has been budgeted — and how it has been spent — on capital projects, such as buildings.
The report, compiled by eight of the committee’s members Thursday evening, will be presented to the City Council tonight at a public hearing regarding the committee’s determination of “non consistent.” The report is a “draft” because the committee hasn’t had a chance to meet to approve the final version. It is being presented tonight because the council scheduled the public hearing in anticipation of the report’s completion.
There are fives points on which the committee focuses attention on what it believes are misdirected Measure H funds, including the public safety building for which the city purchased property and which is currently has out to bid for architectural plans, the animal shelter and animal control activities, planning for a new municipal library, and funds spent on fixtures for existing buildings. The committee is also concerned that the city is charging certain payroll expenses to Measure H which may be supplanting the General Fund instead of providing over-and-above police, fire and literacy programs.
“It is a consensus of the committee that the majority of the expenditures were consistent with the ballot measure,” the report states. “[but], it appears that this Council has established a spending policy as it relates to [Measure H] that will lead to future findings of ‘non consistent’ by TUTOC.”
The report and tonight’s public hearing come nine months after the oversight committee voted—for the first time—that the city’s spending of the sales tax revenue was inconsistent with the intent of the ballot measure, and that a report to the City Council was forthcoming. The determination should have triggered a public hearing that was only recently scheduled for tonight, after city officials said they had been waiting for the committee’s annual report, which was only recently produced.
The committee’s members said they were waiting for information, such as financial transactions and human resources information, before they could draft a complete report. They got their hands on the documents, and reviewed them, Thursday night.
“We weren’t very surprised by what we found,” Chair Greg Gillett said. “We were astonished that it’s actually happening.”
Mostly, it is the money being spent and directed towards capital improvement projects that has raised eyebrows on the committee.
In the last two years, the city spent $434,533 of Measure H money on capital projects — long-term infrastructure investments — and has allocated an additional $140,066 to be spent from this year’s budget.
The report details the committee’s concerns about plans to fund a new public safety building with Measure H money. The building would serve as the city’s third fire station in conjunction with a secondary police station. In November, the City Council authorized using $193,614 of Measure H money to purchase a five acre plot off Highway 190 and Jaye Street, upon which the building will be constructed.
“[Transactions and Use Tax Oversight Committee (TUTOC)] members have determined that the only capital building project identified in the original ballot measure and spending plan voted upon and approved by voters was a new fire station,” the report states. “Measure H funds can be used for that portion of a ‘Public Safety Building’ designed and used to fulfill the spending plan identification of a new fire station. However, other funding sources must be used for the balance of a capital building project used for police related operations.
The committee also disagrees with money being spent on animal control activities, which were services handled by Lindsay Animal Control for 15 years until they were absorbed by the Porterville Police Department almost two years ago.
Now, stray animals are handled by a unit of the Porterville Police Department. The department currently oversees the Porterville Shelter, a temporary site at 1256 W. Grand Ave. with nine kennels. In the past year, nearly 1,000 dogs have been housed there.
The City has spent $302,966 to pay for the land for a new animal shelter, and some salaries and benefits of animal control employees.
“It is impossible to find even a reasonable relationship between expenditures in any amount whatsoever toward an animal shelter,” the report states. “No such capital project was listed or otherwise identified in the ballot measure and is inconsistent with the intent of the ballot measure. The planning for, acquisition of property, and the building of facilities as well as funding operational costs for animal control activities of the city is completely inconsistent with the intent of the ballot measure.
The Oversight Committee objects to thousands of dollars of Measure H funds that were used to pay a consultant to draft plans for a new a new $25 million library. A Library Facilities Planning Commission (LFPC) was formed in December 2008 and has worked with a consultant to develop preliminary plans. To date, more than $220,000 in Measure H money has been allocated to library capital expense, including contracting with San Francisco-based Page + Moris LLC to prepare a report that outlines the basic requirements for a new library, such as its size — between 48,250 square-feet and 53,000 square-feet.
Also charged to “capital expenditures” this year and last, was $271 for food served during library planning meetings and $1,680 for charter buses to take commissioners on field trips to recently constructed libraries in California.
“The primary concern was that $88,000 of the $222,000 allotted for library consultants, and that money was spent on charter buses, dinners and snacks for the planning committee,” the report states.
Beyond capital improvement projects, the committee is also scrutinizing how the city has spent Measure H funds to pay employees who “serve a more general purpose outside of direct police an fire protection activities.”
The report notes a full time custodian who performs maintenance duties for the library, and a fire inspector who “performs general duties for the entire department and all of its personnel.”
“TUTUOC is concerned that this is a ‘slippery slope’ type of practice which will lead to supplanting of general fund activities with Measure H funds. The TUTOC is suggesting that the City Council adopt a strict policy in this regard in order to prevent future findings by TUTOC of ‘non consistent’ expenditures,” the report states.
There is also concern for Measure H money paying for remodeling and improvement project at facilities where Measure H employees work. The report cites funds used to pay for new carpet at the police station and an air conditioning unit at the library.
The report will be presented at tonight’s public hearing, which will take place at the 7 p.m. City Council meeting in City Hall, located at 291 N. Main St.

CITY OF PORTERVILLE
MEASURE H
(Required to Pass: 2/3 of votes cast)
ARGUMENT IN FAVOR OF MEASURE H
BALLOT TEXT
IMPARTIAL ANALYSIS BY COUNTY COUNSEL
PORTERVILLE POLICE, FIRE AND EMERGENCY RESPONSE/9-1-1 SAFETY MEASURE. In order to increase the number of police and firefighters, expand neighborhood crime prevention efforts, improve 9-1-1 response times and communication, upgrade the 9-1-1 dispatch center, build a new fire station, and expand and improve anti-gang, anti-drug and anti-bullying programs, shall the sales tax be increased by one-half cent with citizens oversight and independent annual performance and financial audits?
YES
NO
IMPARTIAL ANALYSIS BY CITY ATTORNEY
MEASURE H
PORTERVILLE POLICE, FIRE AND
EMERGENCY RESPONSE/9-1-1 SAFETY MEASURE
The Porterville Police, Fire and Emergency Response/9-1-1 Safety Measure proposes to raise revenue for the purpose of funding police, fire and public safety facilities, equipment and personnel, by authorizing a special transactions and use tax ("sales tax") of one-half of a cent (.50 percent), and approving an ordinance adding Article IIA to Chapter 22 of the Porterville Municipal Code. The tax would be paid in addition to the current state and local sales taxes and would be collected at the same time and in the same manner as existing sales taxes.
California Revenue and Taxation Code Section 7285.91 authorizes the City to levy or increase a transactions and use tax (i.e. "sales tax") at a rate of .25 percent or multiple thereof, for specific purposes as set forth by the City, if the ordinance proposing the tax is approved by at least two-thirds of the qualified voters of the city voting in an election on that issue. If approved by the voters, the sales tax will become effective no sooner than April 1, 2006.
The revenues raised from the sales tax will be use to hire and equip additional police officers and new firefighters. It will provide for the maintenance and expansion of patrol and gang suppression activities, the purchase of additional public safety equipment, will aid in the funding of a new fire station, and will be used to improve the 9-1-1 emergency dispatch equipment to improve emergency response time. A small portion of the revenue, not to exceed 15 percent, shall be used for the restoration and maintenance of literacy programs in the City due to the established connection between illiteracy and crime.
The sales tax increase will be subject to certain conditions included in the program guidelines plan made a part of the ordinance. Such conditions provide that the expenditures pursuant to the plan be independently audited on an annual basis, that an independent citizen’s oversight committee review the revenues from and expenditures of the special tax funds, and that findings of the auditor and oversight committee be reviewed by the City Council and made available to the public. The City Manager is required to re-certify the plan of expenditures at the time of submittal of the budget to the City Council. The City Council is prohibited from using these funds to replace General Fund dollars budgeted for normal operations at the previous year’s service levels.

City Attorney

To the Porterville hater... (Far from Pvl)
First, a quick question, do you still live in the area? If so, why? It is funny how easy it is to be so vigilant on such an incredibly anonymous site, yet make no effort to uproot yourself and move to a place where your philosophies are embraced, like Jasper, Texas. I feel incredibly sorry for you, that you are (for some bizarre reason) continually exposing yourself to such a miserable existence. It is beyond me, why someone with such distaste would continue to contribute to the depravity that the area was, is and always be. Here is another question for you, have you (or any of your Caucasian friends/associates) ever ACTUALLY gone out to the local warehouses, groves, vineyards, swap meets and applied for the jobs that you believe are being robbed from your people. Here's your answer, no. You are not willing to. Receiving an EBT card and watching Jerry Springer while your Caucasian children are being educated (for free, still) by Hispanic teachers. Which brings me to my next question, have you and your circle pursued the higher education that is necessary to be competitive in the career world? Are you a part of the college educated world? If not, well, my fellow Portervillian (and I use that loosely, as I managed to move myself/family AWAY from the impoverished community), the fault is no one's but your own. Here's some information for you. Quick and dirty: Working hard (anywhere!) + saving money= a life far away from that which you hate so much. Another little equation: College education + Personal skills = (again) a life far away from that which you detest.
Or...
(as most assume)
Continue filling the CL R&R with the cyclical philosophies, wasting away in the poverty stricken community you hate so much, yet never put forth effort to remove yourself from. It is unfortunate and actually quite pitiful, however, typical of your kind of Porterville representative (and you do, CERTAINLY represent them well) I often read your posts when I miss home (the Westside of Pvl). They are always, undoubtedly, a fast cure for the longing for the beautiful foothills, the quaint shops, the hospitality (from the Indie shops/Local police) and the sense of accomplishment, that, against the odds, someone (like me, like YOU) could make it out and never look back.
Let me leave you with this final note: Go down to your local police/sheriff’s department, sign-up for a series of ride-alongs (don't worry, they are free-of-charge). Don't pussy-foot around and go on ONE and then continue to bash the organization that keeps peace (for the most part). Go on a SERIES of them (that means 5-10!) and then, perhaps you will be a bit more enlightened about what it means to be an officer of the law in the community. Oh, and ask questions. You need more facts for your exhausting platitudes (that means, ideas, opinions, etc.).
Thank you (for the continuous reminder, that is),

Mike Ennis says he wants to do the right thing about these lunch tabs. well Mike, quit fucking the people and just quit being a supervisor. You will not get my vote. You are just another leech sucking blood from the people, the blood being money. If you want to suck on something, stay home and suck your wife's pussy. She just may enjoy that. How many years has it been since you have pleasured her anyway? If you dont Allen might help you.

CL terms for the stupid and drug dealers (NO Drugs on CL)
Listen Drug dealer, even if moonbeam says that your pot is legal that doesn't make it so Federally nor does it change the terms of posting on CL.
You are going to get flagged every time by many law abiding citizens who actually care about what you are doing and every time you are going to be removed because you are violating the terms of use, stupid. It really speaks to who is ignorant and who smokes his own "medicine". Read the CL terms of use. If it is all peachy and rosey then go out and buy some advertising in the local rag and on TV. Stop trying to do illicit business like the whores here.
So I posted a partial list of CL's prohibited items.
Specifically the drugs not allowed parts
The drug dealer didn't want to read it so here it is again:
Partial list of items for sale and services the advertisement of which is not permitted on craigslist:
Controlled substances or illegal drugs, substances and items used to manufacture controlled substances and drug paraphernalia.
Alcohol or tobacco products.
Prescription drugs and medical devices, including but not limited to prescription or contact lenses, defibrillators, hypodermic needles or hearing aids.
Nonprescription drugs that make false or misleading treatment claims or treatment claims that require FDA approval.
Even if pot was legal (which Federally it ain't) CL doesn't allow that sale here.
Even your precious moonbeam could have told you that.
You have been warned, you will be flagged EVERY time drug dealer
Big Sister Living High on the Gulag (Povertyville Gulag)
http://www.recorderonline.com/news/editor-43987-elliott-messenger.html
Big Sister's husband is a retired gulag prison guard thug and they have *nine* mixed race grandchildren!
The gulag was originally created by exploitation of cheap Mexican labor, and White ag workers have gradually been entirely excluded from all farm work and other jobs that support farm work or process the harvest.
Now the Mexicans have also crowded White construction workers, service industry workers, teachers, and bureaucrats out of the job market.
The gulag's importation of poverty in the form of inherently criminal illegal aliens means that it needs prisons to incarcerate said criminals.
The gulag is protected by a huge task force of police officers, sheriff's deputies, prison guards, and state police, IOW, *paid thugs*.
Inbred Mexicans tend to have more genetically-transmitted physical diseases and mental retardation, so they need more medical care and institutionalization, which costs the taxpayer money.
Povertyville's biggest employer of thugs is the Povertyville Cuckoo's Nest, euphemistically called the "Porterville Development Center," where 1500 security guards and pyschiatric technicians monitor only 500 retards and mentally ill offenders, the majority of whom are Mexicans.
The middle class only pays about 3% of the taxes required to support the California state budget, and agribusiness actually shoulders the tax burden caused by importation of impoverished criminal illegal aliens.
So agribusiness always has to look for ways to cut costs, and the easiest way to cut costs is to pay ag workers less. This
results in a continual need for more and more illegal aliens to work in the gulag, take jobs that Americans would be happy to do, with the result that many Americans turn to a life of drug and alcohol abuse and crimes that cause them to wind up in state prisons where they are guarded by thugs like Big Sister's husband...

re: Boston Tea Party (Povertyville Gulag)
"Our forefathers did not dump tea in the harbor as a way of " doing what they were told." They did it as an act of rebellion."
Correct. And I know exactly which ones of my ancestors joined Samuel Adams and dumped the tea. They met at the Green Dragon Inn in Boston where Masonic meetings were held.
They dressed up as Mohawk Indians and went down to the harbor and dumped the tea. The tax on tea wasn't all that burdensome.
The American colonists had serious issues with the way the British government was controlling their lives.
My ancestors had been loyal English subjects in the American colonies for 150 years. They had helped the British kick the French and their Indian allies out of Acadia and then kicked the French out of French Canada, the Ohio country and Pennsylvania.
When you read James Fenimore Cooper's "Last of the Mohicans," the massacred Americans he was talking about were *my* ancestors, retreating from their surrender at Ft. William Henry.
The Indians were unpaid allies of the French and they robbed dead soldiers to get what they wanted, so they killed and robbed my ancestors who were marching back to Massachusetts, thinking they were protected by the word of French General Montcalm.
Then, when it came time for American colonials to receive their reward of free land in Ohio, the British passed a law preventing them from expanding across the Appalachians into Ohio.
Worse, the British turned around and allied *themselves* with the savage tribes we'd fought in the French and Indian Wars.
This fact is mentioned in the Declaration of Independence, along with the fact that king George was keeping large standing armies in the colonies under pretense of "defense" from the very Indians who they were allied with...
re: Time to Grow up (Visalia) (Povertville Gulag)
"Grow up?"
How old are you, to be telling people to "grow up?" That's a typical verbalization of some student who is 18 to 30 years old.
I could be your grandfather...
"The rule is you have to put something in to get something out."
Nonsense. The common wealth of America is our stolen *land*.
America's *land* is here, it was once *free for every Real American to enjoy, in usufruct (look it up, if you don't know what "usufruct" means), cherish, and pass on to their posterity.
Now the rich landowners, cattle ranchers and agribusiness, hold 1/3rd of all the land in the USA, while the US government keeps Americans from settling on the other 2/3rds, to be held in *freehold*, tax free, and passed on from father to son forever.
People who are fortunate enough to participate in Madison Avenue's version of the revised "American Dream" have to spend their entire lives in salary or wage slavery in order to live in a mass produced tract house with a two car garage and hope they can somehow send their 2.2 children to college so they can have a"better life."
The revised "American Dream" means paying three times the MSRP for a house or a car.
And who laughs all the way to the bank at these deluded "American Dreamers?"
The foreign "money men" who control the world money supply and the money supply of the USA.
"To all those people sitting in tax offices, thinking that the tax preparer has somehow mislead you because since you paid nothing in you somehow think you should be getting a reward for simply being here."
The original Real Americans came to this land from England in order to escape the onerous taxes imposed by the kings of the House of Stuart (James I, Charles I and II.) The Stuart kings sought to claim their "rights" in
France, Ireland, and Scotland, and they needed tax money to raise armies to do that.
Other Real Americans came here from Scotland, when they were thrown out of their own country to make room for *sheep* as the Norman/British nobility sought to expand their wealth by industrialization.
More people came from Ireland to escape starvation imposed by English occupation and exploitation. Even more came from Germany, in order to avoid compulsary military service as the various princes and noblemen pursued their own agendas.
Being drafted into the German military was a death sentence. When German draftees said "Goodbye" to their families, they knew it was unlikely they would ever see them again.
But the Germans who emigrated to the USA are the proudest of their nationality, fully 15% claim "German" as their national origin. About 7% claim "Irish" as their nationality, 6% say they are "English," and the 5% who are Scots simply say that they are "American," and have always been, even though many of them can trace their proud heritage back for a thousand years.
"Listen these streets are no longer paved with gold."
What are you, a Chinaman or a Jew? The Chinese called American "Mountain of Gold," and Jews thought they would need a broom and a dust pan to sweep up paper money blowing in the streets.
America was founded by *my* English and Scots ancestors, who made it grow and prosper through hard, honest work, not by swindling people out of their money.
"This is not a place that just hands out money because you put your hand there."
What in the world are you babbling about? All a Mexican woman has to do is get across the border, pop out a bunch of anchor babies, and she can live off her children's welfare checks until they are 18. Blacks were emanipated almost 150 years ago but many have lived on welfare for generations.
"I am truly empathetic for those on the wrong end of the silver spoon but this idea that someone owes you something because you are you is prosperous."
English isn't your first language, is it?
"You are here, gift enough."
American citizenship is the RIGHT of "We, the People," who are the POSTERITY mentioned in the Preamble to the Constitution of the United States of America. Immigrants are immigrants forever, they are on their oath to be loyal to the USA, forswearing allegience to any foreign prince, power, or potentate.
Immigrants are trusted not to try and re-establish their owned failed society here in America and they are trusted not to try and force REAL Americans to re-distribute their hard-earned wealth, simply because there are a mahority of immigrants in an electoral district.
"We have all been paid in full."
No, we haven't. We've been robbed of our common wealth, the land, by various scoundrels.
George Washington, first president and "father of his country," would have never joined the Revolutionary cause if the king of England had granted him dukedom in the Ohio Territory.
Aaron Burr tried to establish a kingdom for himself in the west, as did Wilkinson (called the biggest traitor to America in the 19th century.)
One of my own relatives, Colonel John Sevier (of Spanish descent) was as loyal to the king of Spain as he was to the USA and was arrested for it. But Sevier was later elected the first governor of the state of Franklin, which became Tennesee and Sevier was first governor of Tennesee.
"Now be a good American and go do what you are told."
What kind of person are you? The government cannot expect or compel obedience from independant REAL Americans. The USA was formed of thirteen independant states for mutual defense from the British, it wasn't founded to be some kind of central federal Big brother state.
"This country owes you nothing. We owe it everything. We all owe our lives to this land..."
That's a bunch of crap. My ancestors fought and some of them died in every war thi country has ever fought, whether it was a righteous war of defense or a war of aggression to support the imperialist aims of greedy capitalist.
The USA *owes* my people, we don't owe the federal government anything.
"...and it is not becoming of people to stand in line and wait for their handouts from the government when we have already been given freedom and security."
Hey, if the government takes ourhard-earned money in taxes, they should give it back to REAL Americans, who are in need, not to illegal aliens, anchor babies, and Blacks who've made a career out of welfare for 150 years.
"Let’s all take a moment to thank God..."
Many of the Founding Fathers were Deists. They believed that *some power* created the world, but that whoever/whatever it was had lost interest in humans and that it was up to us to make our own way.
"...and those who have sacrificed so much to give us these luxuries of freedom..."
Yes, you may thank my REAL American ancestors who sacrificed themselves for America, whether it was a righteous war or an imperialistic war.
"...and a democratic/changeable, internal peace-like environment."
What the heck are you, an Obama socialist, who wants to collapse the system and redistribute America's cash wealth to the undeserving minorities who never did anything except stand in line with their hands out?
"Trust me we have not run down the streets for our lives yet, we are just fine."
Who would REAL Americans ever have to flee, unless the federal government sics the National Guard on us to disarm us and confiscate our property, so the feds can redistribute it?
"Time to be thankful for what we do have
“Ask not what your county can do for you but what you can do for your country.”
Shut up, you freakin' Kennedy liberal.
Ref:Time to Grow up (Visalia)
I am with you except the line you used, " now go and do what your told.".
This is not an American tradition and by no means is anything at all to do with what this country was founded on .
Our forefathers did not dump tea in the harbor as a way of " doing what they were told." They did it as an act of rebellion. And we as proud Americans should never, "do as we are told." but should listen, and after careful consideration, decide on a course of action.

Here's What Gay Should Be (Androphilia)
When gays came out of the closet, what I think they collectively lost as men was a connection with their fellow men—a sense of purpose and belonging among them. When homosexuality was practiced covertly, a man who preferred men was still forced to function as a man in mainstream society and was still saddled with the same expectations and pressures that other men have to negotiate. There were no special rules for homosexual males, because homosexuality was not part of a man’s public identity.
The gay community embraces everyone and doesn’t expect its men to be anything but gay and “proud” of it. There is no pressure to be a “good man” because gays aren’t held to the same standards as other men. The gay community offers a place to hide from those sometimes oppressive expectations, and from the unforgiving judgment of other men. Gay males can surround themselves with women and gays who will flatter their egos and make them feel special no matter how they behave or what they do. They only have to “be themselves,” and that’s a luxury most men don’t have.
I believe there is a place for homosexuals in a tolerant, sane society. The phenomenon of homosexuality is a historical constant. That doesn’t necessarily mean that there’s some magic gene that turns it on, but it does mean that if you have a society with a hundred people, it seems like a few are usually going to end up having homosexual tendencies. Probably more if that society has a huge surplus or if homosexuality is incorporated in some way that doesn’t slow the birth rate or encourage a cultural submissiveness that makes that society vulnerable to a more aggressive one. The causes are really irrelevant here if you’re willing to accept the simple fact that “homosexuality happens.” So if a society is not suicidal or self destructive or self-hating, if it has a set of values and interests and a collective culture it wants to protect and ideally promote—which includes placing a high value on a culture of reproduction and rearing children in a way that ensures the society’s future—it has two basic choices when it comes to dealing with homosexuality. It can either foster a culture that is inclusive of homosexuality in a way that supports that goal, or it can marginalize homosexuals leave them to hatch subversion on the fringe. If you’re smart, and this rarely happens, you pick choice A. If you’re not, you do what Christians have usually done and pick B. Modern gay culture is a by-product of marginalizing homosexuals, who “came out” in cahoots with the various forces who want to dismantle western culture—the culture that marginalized them.
The thing I have in common with many more socially conservative homosexual Christians is that we believe society needs to acknowledge that “homosexuality happens” and envision a noble role for the homosexual which encourages homosexuals to support the collective culture and mainstream family life. When homosexual men and women remained closeted and got married, or, as in some parts of Chinese history or often in the case of royal blood, they fulfilled their duty to society by having children and teaching them respect for their culture, even as they dallied on the side with men. That’s an ethically sketchy position to be in, but in some ways it worked and maintained social order. Some people, like writer Andrew Sullivan, for instance, believe that allowing same-sex marriages will allow homosexuals to assimilate sufficiently into a healthy, normal, reproductive society. But that’s an oversimplification. Homosexuals can’t have children naturally. They will never be on truly “equal” footing in that area, and if adoption is advocated as the “one true path,” that puts wealthier homosexual couples in a better situation morally—which is somewhat perverse.
When you look back to WWII you see a lot of men who served who were men first, Americans second, and they had this homosexual thing on the side. I am always happy to hear it when young androphiles ignore “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” and consider joining the armed forces. I interviewed one of them and posted that interview to my web site at androphilia.com under the heading “Andro in the Army.” Androphiles serving in the armed forces are in some sense closeted but they have a profound respect for order and a desire to serve society in some way.
We have all of these young men who are probably never going to have kids or wives—why not encourage them to make some use of themselves and go into professions designed for men, or where men have a natural advantage of some kind? Some of those same professions also put a strain on heterosexual marriages and make active parenting more challenging. Law enforcement. Firefighting. Soldiers. Park rangers. Merchant marines. Pilots. Long range transportation. Even healthcare and education. Why create this socially subversive, pleasure seeking culture of self congratulatory nothingness when you can encourage these men to do something that will give them a sense of real purpose and worth? Put them to work supporting society’s infrastructure, instead of chipping away at its foundations.
I’m an advocate of holding homosexual men to the same set of expectations as other men, in the traditional sense. They should be expected to be strong and self reliant, they should be judged by their achievements and their actions, and they should be expected to have some sense of honor. They should be expected to do the right thing and take responsibility for their actions without resorting to the shirker’s response of blaming society for their personal failings. But taking it a step further, I think these men have to be inspired to serve society, to do more than just attempt to mimic the nuclear family and appear ‘normal.’ As a society it makes sense for us to promote a noble, productive ideal for homosexual men that doesn’t set them up with the natural handicap of not being able to reproduce without resorting to bizarre and often expensive arrangements which will never quite be the same as “raising your own kids.”
Gay culture shows homosexual males how to behave like clowns, how to get laughs at their own expense, or to get laughs by gossiping or insulting others. The gay community celebrates “fabulousness” and shows homosexual males how to be the center of attention, no matter what kind of attention. It shows them how to be beautiful and popular and desired in the way that high school girls want to be beautiful and popular and desired. Perhaps the only really complimentary—if fairly pathetic—role gays have traditionally played in society is helping women get dolled up so they can find a mate. “Honey, put on some lipstick and fix your hair—you’re unfuckable.” I guess one could make the argument that all of the hairdressers and makeup artists and fashion fags perform a service to society as some sort of sexual lubricant for straight people.
I think androphiles, for the most part, have far more potential. But as a society, we have to expect more of them if we hope to get it. We have to expect them to be men, ask them to be good men, and show them how they can become extraordinary men.

sex has nothing to do with civil marriage
"Washington, D.C. has now joined five states in allowing same-sex couples to marry. Other states have legal protections for domestic partnerships, civil unions, or recognize same-sex spouses who have married in another state.
Yet all same-sex couples are still denied the full federal rights of marriage – hospital visitation, Social Security benefits, equal treatment under U.S. immigration laws, the right to take leave to care for a spouse, and more.
This civil rights struggle is simply about day-to-day life. Two people who are in committed, loving relationships should be able to protect each other with basic legal rights and safeguards"

http://psychology.ucdavis.edu/rainbow/HTML/facts_molestation.html
"The Mainstream
View Reflecting the results of these and other studies, the mainstream view among researchers and professionals who work in the area of child sexual abuse is that homosexual and bisexual men do not pose any special threat to children. For example, in one review of the scientific literature, noted authority Dr. A. Nicholas Groth wrote:
Are homosexual adults in general sexually attracted to children and are preadolescent children at greater risk of molestation from homosexual adults than from heterosexual adults? There is no reason to believe so. The research to date all points to there being no significant relationship between a homosexual lifestyle and child molestation. There appears to be practically no reportage of sexual molestation of girls by lesbian adults, and the adult male who sexually molests young boys is not likely to be homosexual (Groth & Gary, 1982, p. 147).
In a more recent literature review, Dr. Nathaniel McConaghy (1998) similarly cautioned against confusing homosexuality with pedophilia. He noted, "The man who offends against prepubertal or immediately postpubertal boys is typically not sexually interested in older men or in women" (p. 259).
This well known lack of a linkage between homosexuality and child molestation accounts for why relatively little research has directly addressed the issue. Proving something we already know simply isn't a priority. Indeed, a commentary that accompanied publication of the 1994 study by Jenny et al. in Pediatrics noted that debates about gay people as molesters "have little to do with everyday child abuse" and lamented that they distract lawmakers and the public from dealing with the real problem of children's sexual mistreatment (Krugman, 1994). "
re: gay assburn (equalityville) (Povertyville Gulag)
"it seem when people used sterotypes for gays they mean gay men, what about lesbians and lesbian couples
The problem with letting gays do as they please, is that they would do as they please with children too.
A Mayo clinic study of 2000 repeat child molesters showed that about 80% of the recidivists were homosexuals.
So, knowing this, should gay men be allowed to get married and adopt innocent children?
I don't think so.
As for lesbians marrying and adopting children, that's not such a bad thing. Women have cared for children in group situations for thousands of years and have established covert relationships amongst themselves.
But, what would happen if same-sex marriage was legalized for women, but not for men?
Wouldn't a lot of gay men protest such a law, even if they had no intention of ever settling down with one man?
"all i hear on here is about gay male sex who cares....."
The problem with penetrative gay sensuality is that it really is a misuse of the male genitourinary system and the mechanics of the sensual act are revolting (or "an abomination," in the words attributed to Moses).
Gay men usually do not "flip flop." The dominant partner is the "top" and he does the insertion, and the submissive partner is the "bottom<" who must assume the female role in the sensual act.
And anytime somebody is publicly identified as "gay," the automatic assumption is that he's always the "bottom" in homosensual encounters.
OTOH, if more men did experience being penetrated, they might understand what women go through when being raped.
So, let the bottoms be bottoms and the tops be tops, but that's not any good reason to get married.
"what some fail to see that gays and lesbian can live just like everyone else in today "
That sounds like wishful thinking to me. I've known a lot of gay men and lesbians, and none of them were following "the straight and narrow" path of the majority and living :ike everybody."
The gays were only after sensual pleasure.
Most of the lesbians that I've known had children from an abusive relationship with a man so they turned to the supportive companionship of women.
But I've also known lesbians who turned into dykes while incarcerated, and they started abusing women just like some men do.
The most aggressive dykes I ever met were working in the aerospace/electronics industry, where they abused other women and hated all the male workers and started gender wars in the workplace.
wifes fault (annalville)
if his wife would have sucked dick and took it in the ass like a good wife he wouldnt of had to go gay and to gay bars. a cock is a powerfully thing.i use to set behind this sick fuck in church. and you dumb ass people let this sick man make decisions for the rest of use. we are just as sick as him.
gay assburn (equalityville)
well he said he was just voting how his constituent would want him to vote....umm he never ask me nor polled all his "constituent"
nor has someone polled all gay couples to see if they are "cheaters" st8 couples do the same things
it seem when people used sterotypes for gays they mean gay men, what about lesbians and lesbian couples
all i hear on here is about gay male sex who cares.....what some fail to see that gays and lesbian can live just like everyone else in today
society and have allways been here and deserve the same rights as everyone else
roy ashburn if when he 1st ran for office said i'm a gay republican no one would have voted for him cuz they see a gay man and not as someone that could do the job for Us in SACRAMENTO
he is term out anyway but i wounder what the GOP elites of porterville some of which looked up to roy like cam hamiton think of him now all these years beening fooled
i wounder how many other "closeted" GOPers are here in the so called Conservative valley , maybe even on the tulare board of supervisors?...
at lest so far roy told the truth when finally faced with it both , with the DUI and the gayness.....how many GOPers and other politician can say the same~!
when someone takes that step out of the cloest we need to embrace them no matter what it;s a big move for anyone that comes out and to be finally free to be them selfs
everyone on the right side today on the radio has said they don't care that roy is gay and i hope that is true this might be a new sgin of hope for young people and others living in the closets or thinking worst suicide here in the valley that yes! they took are rights a way but now they might be seeing we are people and no one deserve to be hated but we need to find common ground on these human rights issue
i leave you with this a quote for another gay republican
"We must destroy the myths once and for all, shatter them....And most important, every gay person must come out....Once they realize that we are their children, that we are everywhere, every myth, every lie, every innuendo will be destroyed.”
--Harvey Milk, San Francisco supervisor, 1978"

re: Help stamp out drunk driving (thinkville) (Povertyville Gulag)
"Work for gay marriage. Then the Roy Ashburns of the world could settle down with a nice boy and quit getting plowed at 2 a.m."
From what I can tell, the majority of men who have "sex" with other men do not want to get "married" to a man because they *are* already married to a woman who won't give them a BJ or let them screw the exit only. So they go out cruising for gay "sex,"
in which another man substitutes for their wife.
And committed gays in so-called "long term realtionships" aren't all that faithful to their "life partner," "roommate" or whatever they call their bunkie. They "cheat" on each other constantly, but live together for convenience.
And the farcical relationship called "gay marriage" just isn't going to stop a man who likes to have "sex" with another man from constantly looking for a new hole to poke.
Help stamp out drunk driving (thinkville)
Work for gay marriage. Then the Roy Ashburns of the world could settle down with a nice boy and quit getting plowed at 2 a.m.
Maybe the Legislature would be more effective.

"There's never been a doubt in my mind on the position of the vast majority of people in my district on these … issues," he said. "And so I voted as I felt I should on behalf of the people who elected me."
That sounds like a responsible position to me, he's trying to keep his bisexual lifestyle on the down low, not let his orientation make decisions for everybody and to do the job his constituency elected him to do, which is to represent the majority.
Unfortunately, he drove a state owned vehicle to a gay bar and got caught.
If he'd had good sense, he wouldn't have done that, But how did the press get hold of the news, anyway?
Did he say, "I'm a congressman, you can't arrest me," or what?

•Sen. Ashburn reported at a gay bar
A prominent Valley Republican state senator arrested on suspicion of drunken driving this week in Sacramento has taken a personal leave through Sunday.
State Sen. Roy Ashburn of Bakersfield, a 14-year veteran of the Legislature, was arrested about 2 a.m. Wednesday while driving his state-issued car near the state Capitol.
Ashburn later issued a written apology, but the arrest catapulted his personal life into a very public spotlight.
•GOP state senator comes out as gay on talk radio
Republican state Sen. Roy Ashburn of Bakersfield says he is gay, after days of speculation after his arrest last week in Sacramento for driving under the influence.
The conservative lawmaker came out Monday on KERN radio in Bakersfield, saying he felt compelled to address the rumors that he had visited a gay nightclub near the Capitol before his DUI arrest.
The 55-year-old father of four says he crossed the line and broke the law, putting people at risk, so he owes the public an explanation.
•Ashburn no-show in Senate after DUI arrest
A day after his arrest for investigation of drunken driving, state Sen. Roy Ashburn, R-Bakersfield, did not show up for Thursday morning's session of the state Senate. Senate officials said Ashburn was out on personal leave, meaning he would not collect a per-diem check.
The state-issued car Ashburn was driving at the time of his arrest early Wednesday was returned to the state Capitol garage. There are no impounding fees, said Senate Secretary Greg Schmidt.
Officials in Ashburn's Capitol office said they did not know where the senator was Thursday.
•Valley state Sen. Ashburn arrested in DUI
SACRAMENTO -- Valley state Sen. Roy Ashburn was arrested Wednesday morning on suspicion of drunken driving in downtown Sacramento, authorities said.
Ashburn, R-Bakersfield, was booked into Sacramento County Jail by the California Highway Patrol.
Ashburn's vehicle was observed weaving on L Street near 13th Street shortly before 2 a.m., a spokesman for the CHP said.
•
We already know where this is going.
For some of us, the knowledge is hateful, for others, hopeful. Yet the inevitable arc of it is clear: Maybe it will be 10 years, maybe 20, but we can now envision a day when the last legal restrictions against gay men and lesbians will be struck away.
A future is coming in which they will be fully protected from discrimination in housing and employment, free to fall in love and tell it to the judge, to make end-of-life decisions for their partners, to adopt children.
SACRAMENTO -- Sen. Roy Ashburn, whose personal life became the subject of rumors in the wake of a DUI arrest last week, said today he is gay, but he defended his numerous votes against gay rights bills.
"I am gay... those are the words that have been so difficult for me for so long. But I am gay," Ashburn told conservative radio talk show host Inga Barks in an on-air interview.
A Sacramento TV station last week reported that unnamed sources saw Ashburn at a gay bar the night before his arrest last Wednesday on suspicion of DUI. The speculation set off a media frenzy, rekindling rumors that Ashburn lived a closeted life.
Gay-rights advocates seized on the news to point out Ashburn's votes against gay rights legislation and his appearance several years ago at a rally in support of a proposed constitutional amendment to prohibit gay marriage.
Ashburn defended his positions, telling Barks he was representing his district, a mostly conservative area running from Bakersfield to Visalia.
Roy Ashburn
"There's never been a doubt in my mind on the position of the vast majority of people in my district on these … issues," he said. "And so I voted as I felt I should on behalf of the people who elected me."
He said he felt he could keep is private and personal life separate, but said "what happened … through my own actions the other night changed all that."
Ashburn has been on personal leave since his arrest, but is expected to return to the Senate today.
"I pray to God that I can find peace and I want to go back to work in the Senate," he said.

re: FINDING WAS TAINTED (only in killerville) (Povertyville Gulag)
"Justice was side stepped once again"
Ummm, I didn't see anything in the story about the PPD's decision that the murder of Vince Steen went down according to PPD
procedures actually *acquitted* the murderers.
The hasn't been any story that says the DA has dropped the case against the murderers, and the civil lawsuit just might bring
the truth out, but that will be years from now.
"but I have faith that what goes around comes back around and may the blessing of karma bestow them seven fold."
Sorry, karma doesn't work that way. It accumulates but it doesn't multiply so a murderer gets killed seven times.
And, if a tree limb in Brian Nix's backyard fell on him and killed him, that karma wouldn't be payback for the murder of Vince Steen, the karma would be the result of Nix not trimming his trees.
So, what kind of karma *would* be payback for the Steen murder?
If somebody (hypothetically speaking) shot a murderer, that would be payback in kind for the murder, but whoever shot the murderer would become a murderer and he would accumulate the karma.

THE PORTERVILLE RECORDER
Three Porterville police officers placed on leave following an officer-involved shooting are back on duty today, after an internal affairs investigation found them within department policy.
Officer Isaiah Scaggs, 29, officer Erik Martinez, 30, and Sgt. Brian Nix, 41 — the three officers involved — were found to have acted within Porterville Police Department policy the night of Jan. 10 when Vincent Steen was shot and killed in the kitchen of the Oakmont Avenue home where he lived with his family.
Police Chief Chuck McMillan said he agreed with the findings, delivered by a three-member panel of department captains, clearing Scaggs, Martinez and Nix of any policy violations.
“Their recommendation to me, which I accepted and concur with, is that the officers’ actions were lawful, proper and in full compliance with department policies and standards,” McMillan said. “They will be returned to full duty as of today.”
The investigation was based upon statements given voluntarily the night of the shooting by the three officers, and a sole eyewitness to the original altercation and short foot pursuit.

People Knew Roy Ashburn Was Gay (equalityville)
COLLUSION: People Knew Roy Ashburn Was Gay And They Said Nothing
At least two California newspapers and the openly gay mayor of West Sacramento knew anti-gay state Sen. Roy Ashburn was gay and yet they said nothing. On Wednesday, Ashburn was arrested for DUI while leaving a Sacramento gay bar in the company of as yet unidentified man.
Last summer an editor at Ashburn's hometown paper, the Bakersfield Californian, heard that a Sacramento paper was about to out him. So they called him and asked him point-blank if he is gay.
His response: "Why would that be anyone's business? Including The Californian's? "I think there are certain subjects that are simply not relevant and this is one of them. It has no bearing on the job I do." During the course of our conversation I listed several instances in which a politician's sexual orientation, or even just their sexual activity -- straight or gay -- would be relevant. If Ashburn were a staunch anti-gay activist but was secretly gay, I said, that would be a legitimate concern to his constituents. Ashburn agreed but said he didn't believe he had been such an activist. I pointed out he had voted conservatively on gay issues throughout his career. Yes, he said, but he'd done so on almost all social issues. He represents a conservative district and votes as his constituents would want him to, he said. Several political organizations have ranked Ashburn's voting record as extremely unfriendly to gays. (I'm not sure where those organizations rank Senate Majority Leader Dean Florez, a Democrat, who initially voted against all gay issues for much the same reason, but since has turned a new leaf.) And Ashburn did organize a "Traditional Family Values" rally in 2005 to drum up support for a state constitutional amendment banning same-sex marriage.
The Californian decided that Ashburn's sexuality wasn't "relevant." The unnamed Sacramento paper apparently did too and never published. To recap: It's not relevant that a state politician with a 100% rating from an anti-gay group is gay himself. Can you fucking BELIEVE that? And it turns out that the openly gay mayor of West Sacramento has known about Ashburn for a long time.
Christopher Cabaldon, the openly gay mayor of West Sacramento told KOVR he has spotted Senator Ashburn at gay hot spots a number of times. According to Project Vote Smart, Ashburn's has consistently voted against gay rights legislation including no on recognizing out of state same-sex marriages, no on creating a state recognized Harvey Milk Day, and no on expanding anti-discrimination laws. "To live a secret life and at the same time be attacking the people who you're one of but are too ashamed to admit, that's hypocrisy," said Cabaldon to KOVR CBS 13.
That hypocrisy apparently didn't bother Mayor Cabaldon enough to actually fucking say something. And you know that if Cabaldon knew, many other queers in Sacramento knew. If I lived in West Sacramento, I'd want to have a long angry talk with my mayor.
At this moment, I'm not so interested in the detestable Roy Ashburn and his pathetic defense of "I was voting the way my constituents wanted." Because to my mind, the biggest story here isn't Ashburn's closeted homosexuality and anti-gay voting record. As we all know, that is a story we have seen a hundred times. And will see a hundred times more. The REAL story here is the media's collusion and the conspiracy of silence on the part of our own people. Folks, when you know somebody is actively working day and night to thwart the rights of your FAMILY, of your PEOPLE, you fucking say something.
