On Saturday morning I was reading through MSM websites gathering news stories, and almost did a double-take when I came across one story filed by Phil Willon on the Los Angeles Times website — the headline said that the Los Angeles City Council had relaxed a tax on business.
The reason for the double-take, of course, is that the Mayor and almost all of the City Councilmembers of Los Angeles are liberal Democrats who undoubtedly are looking for more ways to gauge money from area businesses, not provide relief from taxation.
When I read more, however, it became very clear to me what was going on. The specific issue was the City Council providing tax relief to "internet-based" businesses. Or put another way, these are businesses that can very easily pick up and leave Los Angeles and not materially impact their business-model.
The Los Angeles City Council on Friday voted to cut business taxes for Internet-based firms that had … Read More
*Note: Updated to include endorsement of Damon Dunn.* Delegates to the California Republican Assembly’s convention endorsed Steve Poizner for Governor and Chuck DeVore for United States Senate.
The CRA’s endorsement is significant, and so congratulations go to Poizner and DeVore. Poizner was endorsed on a second ballot — DeVore won straight out. It takes a 2/3 vote of delegates to receive an endorsement.
Notable was that the candidates that were not endorsed – Meg Whitman in the Governor’s race, and Carly Fiorina and Tom Campbell in the U.S. Senate race – all were at the convention. The campaigns of Whitman and Fiorina were running drills, complete with staffers on the ground, to try and prevent the CRA from taking positions in these races.
Also endorsed in his contested primary for Attorney General was conservative favorite John Eastman and for the contested Board of Equalization race in District 2, Senator George Runner. This latter endorsement is a… Read More
Last Tuesday, thousands from throughout the state andnation were saddened to hear the news that the body of missing 17-year-old Poway High School student Chelsea King had been found after a frenzied five day search. Those from Poway and the rest of San Diego County were particularly stunned. Many of us had been glued to the story, while holding out hope that she might be found alive, even though a sexual predator had been arrested in the case.
The community at large, many coming out by the thousands to search for Chelsea, grabbed on to the hope that whatever rape- and murder-related evidence the Sheriff’s Department had in its possession might somehow be wrong, lacking an actual body.
The photos of Chelsea on the news and on storefront windows throughout the county represented the picture of all our children, any one of them out for an afternoon run on a nice, lake shore trail in a relatively safe community, only not to return home.
We all gasped to learn that this terrible act was… Read More

There is no group in California that more tired of leadership they are seeing from Democrats in Sacramento than the California Republican Assembly. They see out of control spending, crushing debt and a lack of focus on the issues that matter most: job creation and reinvigorating the economy.
In California, we are fortunate that the top Republican candidate for governor is a dynamic leader with the right kind of experience needed to restore fiscal discipline and prosperity to the Golden State. Meg Whitman is without question that candidate.
Like us, Meg Whitman is committed to the values and empowerment of the free market. For 30-years in the private sector, Meg has been creating jobs and delivering results. At eBay, she created an online free market platform that encouraged innovators and small businesspeople to find success and thrive. And she is the only candidate in the race who has a clear, focused plan to create two million jobs, cut 15 billion in government spending and improve public education.
Republicans stand a good chance of winning in November if we stick to our conservative fiscal principles and offer common- sense solutions. So we need… Read More
