1) Today I joined dozens of American Patriots outside of Joe Baca’s office showing our support for Arizona’s law 1070. The fact that 1 activist judge can overthrow the will of the people shows the need for major judicial reform!! Our Founding Father’s never wanted the Judicial Branch to legislate from the Bench. And for Judge Bolton to even pretend that Arizona’s law is unconstitutional gives evidence as to why the Founders believed that Congress should have the power of impeachment over judges who obviously are trampling on the will of the people.
2) Today I also joined a Press Conference at S.B. Chamber of Commerce to oppose the Mayor’s plan to increase our sales tax by another 1/2 percent. We already have the highest sales tax in the area. In 2006 he convinced the voters to increase the sales tax by 1/4 by promising to hire dozens of more Police officers. Guess what, sales receipts tanked (before the economy went sour), we only have a net gain of 1 officer, and we still have about 11 more years of this tax. Now that the economy went south he wants to double his last deal. NO THANKS. I’m not an expert and I haven’t spent much time looking at our local budget, but I do know that increasing our tax will lower overall revenue which means we will have to make even bigger cuts.
3) On the national level the same principle applies. I oppose the current plans by President Obama and the Democrats in Congress to allow the so-called Bush tax cuts to expire — especially regarding the death tax and the marriage penalty tax. Parents have already paid taxes on what they earned, so the government doesn’t need to tax their children after they die. And since we know that stable families bring down the need for government spending, why does our government go out of their way to penalize couples who want to get married?!
4) Coming soon — Is the Santa Ana Sucker more important than residents of the Inland Empire?
Great post Scott!! We are behind you!! Was Jerry Lewis at Baca’s office?
Scott you have a uphill battle and I support you 100%. Baca De Caca De Berdoodoo has got to go. Politicans are like diapers then need to be changed often and for the same reason..
