What I sarcastically described is what is marketed to hunters as the dream to ask Santa to bring. That said, parts of my description are found commonly.
So you are mad at people trying to sell product?

Do you hold the same resentment every time you see a ford commercial?

I liked Boxer a lot more than Feinstein, the latter who is more of a Clinton-esque big business/military-industrial complex Democrat. Boxer fought for true liberal values. As to her replacement, I think Gavin Newsom is a front-runner.

Who's mad? I'm scoffing. And yep, I scoff at Ford advertising too

I'm also pretty amused by your ire here. I haven't opposed guns or hunting. I have agreed that the depth of law-making in general is intrusive and irritating. I have also made observations about the realities of human nature and human folly. Apparently that puts a burr under your saddle. Well, giddyap then hoss

Sounds like the taxpayers got their money's worth out of her. I get the impression she was a hard worker.
I respect her she walks the walk

Not necessarily. Both the far left and the far right end up creating the same thing -- tyranny.

Specifically, the two ends share an authoritarian element and a desire to greatly increase the size of government in order to advance their respective objectives.

But of this I am sure, conservative politics would have been even more pro-development.

And no, I am not a Democrat. Though certainly not a Republican. Definitely not Libertarian. I am entirely apolitical. Ideologies are a crutch for lazy intellects.
Based on your constant harping about overpopulation, you might as well be a Dem...probably a liberal Dem at that. It's the Left who is always screaming about overpopulation.

Latest roomer is that Michelle Obama is going to run for the seat.

Just what we need, someone who has never been a california representing Californians.



I remember an ad against Hillary when she was running for senator of New York in 2000. It was a picture of Hillary next to 5 babies with t a headline of "the difference between Hillary and these babies is the babies have been residents of New York State longer" or something to that affect.

^^^^^ Classic example of a logical fallacy. Textbook.

Insightful as to how you arrive at your allegiances with numerous and various conspiracy theories.

Michelle is going to rent a room in SF? Or did you mean, there's a rumor going around about her? I was thinking, jeez, if even she can only afford a room in SF, rents really have gone sky-high!

It's not the only example I could give of your leftist way of thinking.

I don't know what you're talking about in your 2nd statement.
