Looks like the California Democrats are getting ready to roll out yet another white lawyer to run for Governor when Arnold Schwarzenegger terms out in 2010. Are you ready for the return of Jerry Brown? Ugh! This is the guy responsible for our lack of freeways! Not good.
Brown “waxed nostalgic Saturday about his former days as governor and strongly suggested that he might run again
What a weasel you are, Art. Jerry Brown’s full quote in the L.A. Times reads;”Even so,Brown said, he accomplished more than his Republican successors. “I tried hard not to build freeways, but we built more than [Pete] Wilson and [George] Deukmejian combined,” he said of his Republican successors. “Even without trying we did more than those idiots.””
*We love Jerry Brown…he is really
something special….but … he
had his time as the GUV! We are
still trying to recover from the
reign of Andreanna Gianturco..who
single-handedly did more to ruin
our Cal-Trans system than anyone
in California history. She is the
one that wanted a Freeway from the
Oregon Border of California to
Mexico running along the coast the
entire way….Eminent Domain? Oh
yeah….she was all over that!!!
Almost took an act of God to stop
that crazy idea!
No thanks, not “Brown GUV Junior”
again…but he was sure fun – the
first time around. We still love
Linda Ronstandt….”Blue Bayou”…
oh yeah…We love that little over
weight Mexican Commie so much that
we bought every one of her
records! And still play them on
occasion. But, we still don’t
want her as First Lady of CA
though! If he now choses Rosanne
Cash…we might change our minds.
“White Guys vie”, eh?
Another unnecessary racist commnentary by Art PedRaza.
#3,
How else would you like me to refer to them?
It is an embarrassment that the Dems can only come up with one minority candidate, and he (Villaraigosa) is a joke.
BTW, where are the women candidates? The GOP has one…
I’d like to say that if you are looking for an intelligent, honest, hardworking person for Governor you should look at and vote for Jack O’Connell. I’ve known Jack for more than 15 years of his public service and believe him to be the best person for any public service job. The kind of person any of us would want to be there. Good Luck Jack!
Yeah, cause Steve Poizner isn’t a white guy.
Art, you are so racist! It’s embarrassing. Over and over, you make inappropriate comments – no wonder no one cried when you left the Santa Ana commission. You are just short of making me sick.
On the Gerry Brown stuff, thank goodness he DIDN’T build more freeways. If you have ever studied transportation theory, you will know that the freeways will just fill up to capacity regardless of whatever other transportation systems are in place or no matter how wide you make the freeways – witness the 22-freeway.
You have a lot to learn both personally and professionally.
#7,
The point is, the Dems keep preaching that they are the minority party, but all I see is 7 or 8 white guys who want to be Gov.
As I pointed out, even the Reeps have a female candidate, in addition to THEIR white guy, Poizner. Are you telling me the Dems have NO women candidates? What is up with that?
The point about building freeways in the Brown era was back then you had open spaces to do so. Now you don’t. The opportunity was lost. You cannot put that genie back in the bottle.

Are you joking? The slowdown at the junction of the 22 and the 5 still sucks, but come on! If you don’t think that road if so much more convenient overall than it was 3 years ago then I’m afraid you’re out of your mind!
However, I do also think that widening the 5 between Beach Blvd and Commerce should have been a higher priority as it is a main corridor between OC and LA and there is already ramp construction in that area.
And what ever happened to double decker freeways? Back east many bridges have that configuration, so why not do the same with freeways?
I mean we’ve already discovered the immeasurable value of flyover ramps in places like the ‘Orange Crush,’ so why not flyover freeways?
