The latest polls show that the Bush approval rating is the lowest it has ever been. The reason may be because of his lack of “real” American moral values. Some of these values that Americans have held so dear in the past are demonstrated in the following apropos quotes and prayer. When measured against these […]
Today (10-15-05) a story appeared in the Times regarding a community forum with Filner and Morrow. When I read the comments made by Filner on how he would improve the problem with illegal immigration, I laughed. Here is what he wants to do:
Filner said Morrow and others who oppose illegal immigration should instead be looking […]
… For the latest in the continuing craziness in how extreme can we get on the issue of the U.S. border with Mexico, we turn once again to that ever-entertaining bunch at Escondido City Hall.
The same folks who have proven themselves big on big pay raises for themselves, the city manager and the city attorney, […]
Ever since some pinheads somewhere came up with the crazy idea, cameras tied into traffic lights have been popping up at intersections throughout North County.
Most places in North County have them; San Marcos does not, and likely won’t — thank goodness.
Some folks swear by them as lifesavers and say the hell with the price […]
Over the last few years I have watched with frustration as the Oceanside City Council has continuously revised direction with respect to the Oceanside Airport. I believe the airport should remain open and I have supported those council and mayoral candidates who believe as I do.

The good folks in Escondido must be either:
Filthy rich
Asleep at the switch
Or dead
Honestly … As noted before (see prior post) their council members give themselves 6 percent raises effective December 2006 and their city manager and attorney get huge 28 percent boosts as well and not so much as a peep nor a Letter to […]
Let me try and get this straight.
Read this from the North County Times wire services: (here) Kind of makes you think there were equal numbers of pro-war and anti-war protesters yesterday (Sept. 24) in San Diego, right? In fact, the title says “Anti-war protestors greeted by equal number of pro-troop supporters”. Seems clear enough.
The […]
The following landed in the e-mail In-Box from a friend, with whom I share roots in the Flint Hills of Kansas. John is theologian and an avid reader of the news who has a few views of his own on the media’s role in the state of affairs the nation finds itself in and he […]
The dilemma about the never-ending problem of homelessness has popped up yet again in Vista.
Former Mayor Gloria McClellan invoked all meanings possible when she used to call Vista the “Heart of North County” — she was a tireless campaigner for the homeless. She was largely responsible for Vistans now doing more than their fair […]
I’m beginning to think the folks Escondido are all either flush with cash or asleep at the wheel: Can you believe their money management? I don’t get it.
Council members just gave themselves — well, actually, whoever is in office after the elections in November 2006 — a pay raise of 6 percent and the mayor […]
