YO: Just THIS In...from the Sacramento Bee...
http://www.sacbee.com/110/story/39201.html
Orwellingly Yurz sez:
This comes as no surprise at all. Der Groepenfuhrer has moderated
considerably, but as far as I'm concerned, still not yet out of Pete
Wilson's One-Hundred Acre Woods. My guess is Ahnolt will drift back more to the liking of super big money after the election.
It's been clear to me since the campaign began that California---with materialism as its first priorty---knows a "good" thing when it sees it: a famous entertainer who can talk the talk...not necessarily walking the walk...while blowing sweet smelling capitalist smoke up the right rich people's asses around the world. I look at Ahnolt as somewhat like the run-of-the-mill university president who doesn't know shit about how all his colleges work; or for that matter, what their mission really is, but goddamned good at raising bucks. Although not a trait to venerate, it is one that is truly important for education and, as Ahnolt would say, "things of that nature."
I'll be sending the Bee editorial board a huge tube of vaseline for
application to it's chaffed backside for riding the fence on this
editorial. But we must be gentle with the Bee because, after all, it IZ a BIZ.
OY!
