Despite the best efforts of the California Chamber of Commerce to expose anti-job legislation through their “Job Killer” reports, California legislators continue to author, debate and pass bills that have resulted in record high unemployment in the Golden State.

His performance was so bad this week that it prompted GOP Assembly Caucus leader Sam Blakeslee, no conservative himself, to write the following memo to his caucus. All of you GOP types out there clamoring for a "moderate" solution, please tell me why again? What we get with "electibility" is ….. crap.

Longtime Sacramento Bee columnist Dan Weintraub will soon be departing the payroll of the Bee… While he will still have columns there, he is also going to be a regular columnist for the Left Coast edition of the New York Times (well, until they figure out Dan is not a lefty) and he will work on other various projects. We wish Dan well, and hope that much of his focus remains on California policy and politics. When he does, we'll link it on our main page!… Read More
