Sky Nut

The 21st century started w/ electoral horror, as we might remember/how could we forget? Number two on the list of early 21st century voting horrors, in our humble opinion (We were told by a local attorney, a lib-comsymp-pinko, of course, who went to Ohio to work on the 2004 presidential results that, sadly, Ohio was more or less legit, so spare us mention of that.) is the California recall election that somehow managed to install Arnold fucking Schwarzenegger as the governor here. Number three would be the rëelection of the Kindergarten Cop. Are you stupid jerks happy now?
The governor has added state legislators and former political aides to the state payroll, with six-figure salaries. Their positions: plum posts on the same state boards and commissions that the governor crusaded to abolish a few years ago, calling them a waste of taxpayer money.  Two GOP lawmakers who recently left office and have limited expertise in thorny employment issues have received jobs at the state Unemployment Insurance Appeals Board. The panel met 12 times last year, and members are paid $128,109.
At the same time he rewards his cronies for losing elections (not to ignore those who've been termed-out & are such stupid jerks they can't even get jobs w/ the corporate entities they spent their time in Sacramento doing favors for) 
Schwarzenegger made the most recent appointments just days after ordering 238,000 state workers to be furloughed two days a month or take an equivalent pay cut of about 9%. He also requested that the state payroll be reduced an additional 10%, including layoffs if necessary.
Can we just hear that first part again? Yeah, that one.
The same state boards and commissions that the governor crusaded to abolish a few years ago, calling them a waste of taxpayer money.
Liar, or incompetent B-movie joke? Either way, the people of Kah-lee-4-nee-yah voted the useless piece of human waste & steroid abuse into office twice. How best to punish them further?
