Today I've reached the boiling point once again over what the elected idiots that run this nut house called California are up to.

First they're going to put a two cent per 8 ounce can tax on every non-diet drink sold in California that contains sugar. Everything from soda to orange juice will be taxed raising nearly $400,000,000 dollars each year to teach our children to not drink such fattening drinks. I am not kidding. 400 hundred million dollars of additional taxes to teach fat kids to not drink Coke and the stupid Democrats can't rush this thing into the books fast enough. 400 million dollars of our life energy wasted on yet another stupid idea on how the state can best raise its subjects childrn.

But what finally set me off was a second bill that is being blocked by the Democrat controlled "Public Safety Board". There is a bill currently blocked that would force convicts to provide a DNA sample to aid in investigating additional crimes they may have committed. One puzzling case involves a low life that killed 10 and raped 70 (SEVENTY) women in a four year period between 1976 and 1980. Police belive that the slime is currently serving a jail term but can't get the DNA samples to match the ones recovered from the victims.

We already force prisoners to give us fingerprints and photographs. We have forced the entire US military (innocent people remember) to give DNA samples against their wishes. But we can't gather evidence from convicted murders without their permission. (is this an unreasonalable search where random road blocks stopping otherwise innocent subjects isn't??)

So why are the Democrats blocking this bill? For fear of loss of personal rights and liberties? NO! Because they fear law suits from the convicts if something bad happens while drawing blood. I kid you not.

These are the latest two examples of the liberal trash that runs this state. I, for one, have lost any respect that I had left at all for these idiots.

Actually,
A bunch of them are convicts, and they would have to provide samples, possibly putting themselves at risk for jail time.

I am a guest of the crown under military orders (not suggestions [:)]) and they do get rather upset when a military member doesn't go where they've been posted.

I had reached my 20 year retirement and was fixing to leave when this Afghanistan thing got started ... then they threw a second star at me ... at this rate I'm going to end up a lifer if I'm not careful.

Except for the best looking women and the great weather this place in the pits. The political climate does forge some pretty hard core resistance and I've met some really good people here.

I've got to get up into the high desert and put some rounds down range ... that always makes me feel better for awhile.
