Backroom deals? No!

Let's hear it - "What about Bush and Cheney?"

This is the Willie Brown (former San Francisco Mayor) doctrine.

He says just because you take their money that is no reason not to
screw them. He had a fairly short political career. Corporate
bribers
want politicians that stay bought.

You know, you really truly are not up to speed on things political.

Mayor Brown was in the California state legislature for about 30
years,
and was speaker of that state's assembly for about 15. He served
eight
years as mayor of San Francisco. Term limit laws kept him from
seeking a
third term.

Brown is a very, very successful politician.
You are right, I don't follow California politics that much. I do know
that this statement was made at the end of his career.

I never heard Willie say that. Jessie Unruh was the first one to say
it. Always like Jessie, but he really screwed California. He was the
one who convinced the voters to go for a full time Legislature. And
has been down hill since.

His quote was:
"If you can't drink a lobbyist's whiskey, take his money, sleep with
his women and still vote against him in the morning, you don't belong
in politics."


His first name was Jesse, *not* Jessie. Crikey...and you are a
Californian.

~~ Snerk ~~ that's our Kalif Bill...........


It is Calif Bill. You can not spell, and I made a typo from memory. You
drunk again? Or did your son drink all the beer?

You Dope irregulars are all the same.
First thing, ...........attack family members.
