The Brookings Institute and Cato Institute have demonstrated that public funding of stadiums has NEVER produced a positive return. Not to be discouraged by a track record of 100% failure, and the inconvenience of a looming state bankruptcy, Ahnuld decided to go ahead and support a new NFL football stadium anyway. Without actually having an NFL team to play in it.
A few miles outside of Los Angeles, in a business-tax-free haven of strip malls and strip clubs called the City of Industry -- under 800 residents and fewer than 100 voters -- ground is ready to be broken for an $800-million football stadium. The team to play there is yet to be determined.
"Itīs a weird one, in large part because the City of Industry is so weird. Arnoldīs claim that itīs entirely privately financed is a crock -- the land and infrastructure is being funded by property taxes -- but in a town with barely any actual people in it, you could legitimately argue that the industry in Industry is just voting to tax itself to bring the NFL to town." - LA Times
Apparently it would be idiotic to use the Rose Bowl, L.A. Colosseum or Angel Stadium to house one of the suck-ass NFL teams that wants to relocate. The author of the article above kinda tries to be funny. So I wonīt. I lose fans on Facebook when I do that.
Displays like this divide political parties unnecessarily and make people feel particularly
Irritated that elected officials, who are supposed to make life better, are more concerned with
Running their mouths in the media and pursuing their personal agendas than they are with
The type of progress that can only be achieved for our society when the ego maniacs we elect
Begin to realize that, as entertaining as the circus show in California and elsewhere has been
And will continue to be, all we ask is that the drama stops, and that the politicians begin to
Give us services equal to our taxes.
The law applies to Kennedyīs too! Since that is the funniest joke Iīll write all day so I guess I can go to the beach now.
Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger has finally caught wind of his wifeīs illegal -- and habitual -- cell phone antics ... and now heīs finally gonna do something about it!
Ahnald just went on Twitter and dropped the following note to Harvey Levin:
"Thanks for bringing her violations to my attention. Thereīs going to be swift action." - TMZ
For those of you that are thoroughly confused, its illegal to have any type of personal freedom in California. Including talking on a cell phone while sitting in traffic jams.
At the time of this posting we have no details on what Arnold has planned as "swift action", but a source inside the Sacramento capital building was kind enough to inform us that Arnoldīs rubberized Conan sword and a gas powered dildo with a suicide clutch has gone missing. No police report has been filed.
Dude, so it turns out that the wildfire ripping through Santa Cruz California is more groovy than we thought.
"Wildfire investigators in California are looking for marijuana growers tied to a Mexican drug cartel whom they suspect ignited a blaze that has charred more than 87,000 acres of a national forest." - Reuters
Apparently Juan and Pedro were cooking up dinner in an open fire surrounded by tens of thousands of their pot plants when things went a little loco. The suspects are thought to be wandering around the forest on foot looking for an escape.
No word yet on whether Schwarzenegger has authorized the multi-ton delivery of Doritos to the fire fighters getting stoned out of their minds trying to suppress the flames.
"So, what if 52% of California thought Maria and I shouldnīt be married? Or 99 percent? Would that be enough that we should have to move, or marry someone else, or stay single? Itīs our life. Fuck those people. Itīs not their business. Vote me out of office, but donīt tell me who I can marry." - Arnold Schwarzenegger Daily Kos
Well said Arnold, but 52% of your constituents disagreed with you when they voted no same sex marriage. Is Arnold is going to throw the resources of the state against the decision of the stateīs citizens to prove that prop 8 is unconstitutional?
I īm practically a lawyer because Iīve been sued so many times, and Iīm pretty sure that there are one or two legal checks in place before a proposition makes it to the general election. At least there was when I campaigned to put a proposition on the ballot legalizing drunk driving. Maybe homos are a more potent political force than drunks, but *hiccup* I doubt it.
