Clearing the air about the Race for Humanity
Guest Column by Supervisor Marion Ashley Chairman, Riverside County Board of Supervisors A great deal of misinformation has been passed around on this website regarding Riverside County’s “Race for Humanity” program. On behalf of the members of the Board of Supervisors I want to set the record straight. To start I must point out that the Race for Humanity receives …
Got a teenager? Finding a summer job is harder than ever
While the number of teenagers looking for summertime employment has decreased over the past years, finding a job in the 2010 recession is nearly impossible. One reason for the summertime job blues points directly to the immigrants who have come to the country, both illegally and legally. Many are taking jobs traditionally obtained by teens in years past. The scarcity …
The oil spill/fiasco. My spin
First of all, I don’t blame Bush for it. Obama has been in office for over a year, so it’s his fault. If you might recall, Obama’s administration had just recently given this platform a safety award. Second, the oil companies lease these drill rights from the US government. Now if I was a landowner who was going to lease/rent …

U.S. limits BP oil spill liability to $75 million. Madness!
The monumental British Petroleum Gulf of Mexico oil spill has been held aloft by Big Government advocates as a dramatic example of “the failure of the free market.” But is it? Short answer: Hell NO! [Ex-economist (now partisan commentator) Paul Krugman goes so far as to point to this incident to condemn libertarian thinking — chastising libertarians for trusting government …

Good News! We Aren’t Really At War!
Well it finally happened. And I guess we shouldn’t be surprised. At long last, the Obama administration has come out and admitted in so many words that we are not really at war with radical Islam. This is no surprise to anyone who watched Obama’s magical, mystery, apology tour last year, in which he went out of his way to …
SF Chronicle: Judge candidates mount religious crusade
From the SF Chronicle: A group of conservative attorneys say they are on a mission from God to unseat four California judges in a rare challenge that is turning a traditionally snooze-button election into what both sides call a battle for the integrity of U.S. courts. Vowing to be God’s ambassadors on the bench, the four San Diego Superior Court …

What I learned about Christine Rubin in the Gray Davis recall campaign of 2003
In 2003 Rep. Darrell Issa gave our state a chance for change by starting the “Rescue California” campaign. With great leadership by his aides Scott Taylor and Dale Neugebauer, the campaign gathered 75% of the signatures which forced the historic October 2003 recall election. Scott Taylor recruited me to the campaign staff, and also picked Christine Rubin to handle media relations. …
