Dane Thorsen Long Beach, CA	Reply » \| Report Abuse \| Judge it! \| #2 Jul 7, 2012 Judged: 5 2 1 CA Dems are beside themselves with glee. Another bone crushing, back breaking source of further tens of billions in Debt ladled on their children by the crooks and morons they sent to Sacramento. What an exciting time for cruelest, the most ignorant losers and monsters in America...the brain dead CA Democratic voter.

The taxpayer supported Thug people have a habit of hanging around bus and train depots. What I worry about is getting mugged in some strange city after getting off the expensive taxpayer funded Government train. If one gets past the Thug people hanging about the depot and rents an automobile, I think he has a pretty good chance of getting carjacked by one of the taxpayer supported Thug "youth". Ronald

I agree, I think the D's realize that, and will use the old slogan of how the R's are holding back progression. It's all politics.
Dan Salazar Long Beach, CA	Reply » \| Report Abuse \| Judge it! \| #8 Jul 9, 2012 Judged: 2 2 1 For only $10 Billion, the State could buy 100 brand new Boeing 737's to fly the illegals from barrio to barrio in the central valley at a huge savings to future tax payers. But, that probably wouldn't net millions to the families of the greedy politicians who passed the TRAIN DRAIN on shady land deals, equip purchases, labor scams etc.

Good News. WE won't be paying for it. Gov. Brown promises the bulk of the cost will fall on our increasingly pitiful children and grand children in addition to the most costly Pension Tsunami ever dumped on future generations. The State Dems mission to decimate our own children's future hopes and dreams using every scheme they can think up continues unabatted. Black, White, Hispanic, Asian we VOTED for a lifetime of Tax Slavery for our own kids every time we voted for the Union Operatives who pretend to be Democrats at election time in California.
