A GREAT DAY FOR CALIFORNIA
Gov. Ahhnold does the right thing and not only vetoes the driver's licenses-for-illegals bill, but also says no to the "Triple Threat" bills from the Knucklehead Caucus. He deserves a big THANK YOU for boldly doing what needed to be done. Here's the scoop on what he did late yesterday, courtesy of Capitol Resource Institute:
Governor Schwarzenegger today vetoed AB 606 (Levine-D) and AB 1056 (Chu-D), the final two bills identified as the triple threat to California families. The governor vetoed SB 1437 (Kuehl-D) earlier this month. AB 606 would have required the State Board of Education to increase sensitivity to so- called discrimination. The State Superintendent of Public Instruction would have had unlimited discretion to withhold state funds from schools that did not comply with his interpretation of the law. AB 1056 would have integrated tolerance training into history and social science curriculum and started a pilot program that forced students to learn a "new definition" of tolerance. According to this new definition, students would be forced to not only accept, but advocate homosexuality by "conveying respect" for a lifestyle that violates their religious beliefs. "This is a victory for California families," stated Karen England, Executive Director of Capitol Resource Institute. "Due to the public outcry over these outrageous attacks on students with moral beliefs, the governor vetoed all three. This proves that when citizens who care about protecting their religious and moral beliefs speak out, we can make a huge difference."
HARSH WORDS? The networks and lefties (sometimes one-in-the-same ideology) pounced on Bush's "harsh words" about Democrats and terrorism. Harsh? The words just sounded truthful to me. And it certainly wasn't a windstorm ala Clinton or Howard Dean: http://www.cnn.com/2006/POLITICS/09/28/bush.ap/index.html
