John Laird democrat from Santa Cruz (Chairman of the budget committee) has such a great attitude for a lawmaker. Even after stating he was on a three hour recall back to Sacramento, which I thought was commendable. He went on to say he was term limited out so could not get reelected anyway. So your a lame duck legislature and it becomes OK to fly half a continent away from your responsibilities even if it is a "once in a lifetime convention". I find that reprehensible, but what should I as a citizen of California expect from one of the state legislature who have not been able to come up with a budget on time in how many years lately?
There were three other people from the California legislature at the convention as well
San Diego Assemblymember Lori Saldana, Los Angeles Senator Alex Padilla, and Shafter Senator Dean Florez. According to the report I saw on the news all four had waived their perdium. I am interested in looking at the public record to see if they actually did. Not that I believe that the lawmakers of this state deserve a paycheck with no budget. Trying to screw the working people and making a perdium more then the average employed person make in California is awful pigs at the public trough to me.
See you tomorrow
