That was a rather long winded way of saying you believed Monsanto's claim that it would cost a BILLION DOLLARS to label GMO's.

So, you can't remember what you voted for just 2 years ago, but you can remember why?

The forefathers knew exactly what they were doing when they wrote the 2nd amendment of the Constitution of the United States. God Bless those men.
I agree with this, however, the troops have been held to a standstill by corporate shills and Obama's insane rules of engagement. Believe me, if it were just Afghan farmers there would be a shortage of farmers in Afghanistan for a generation.

Far more troops have been killed under Obama, and it is a direct result of those rules of engagement. It reminds me of Viet Nam when troops were told to take a hill or village, and once taken they were told to fall back. It's insane.

LOL! I know. Scary how my mind works, eh? It goes to show how little the issue bothered me. GMOs are no more inherently evil than high fructose corn syrup, IMO.

Oh, yes, and I do tend to be rather long winded. I also leave ridiculously long voicemails. My friends love me anyway.

Just goes to show how clueless the majority of voters here in CA are. Im willing to bet the vast majority of them have no clue he even got arrested or what he did. In other news, Kashkari has a lead despite looking like the bad guy from the Mummy.

Mary hayashi, the felony shop lifter, did not win. Thank god. Still scary she got 20% of the vote.

Amazing how brain dead some voters are in the bay area.

Who the hell votes for a nutbag shop lifter, who's husband is a judge and got her a light punishment?

People voting along racial lines, that's who.

Yee ended up with 287,590 votes, coming in 3rd in a field of 8.

Got to be embarrassing when you're running for Secretary of State and people would vote for a jailed gun runner before they would vote for you.

Lowest voter turnout in CA history. 13.2% Wow. Well, what do you expect in a state with 1) millions of illegals 2) millions more who can't even speak english 3) very little choice on the ballots, almost all Democrats. Glad to see Prop 41 pass easily. The $750 million is will cost taxpayers over 15 years is a drop in the bucket compared to the $22 BILLION A YEAR the state spends on ILLEGALS.

Well, be prepared for all the homeless vets across America to come to CA for the free/cheap housing. Do you think they won't cost us money? Beyond the $750 million? It will be enormous.

Well you just keep at it don't you. Disseminating false information when you know better. Give us a source for the $22 Billion. I just gave you accurate information on this in another thread within the past few days.
