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.

Bush and Cheney sunk the Republican party with shenanigans like this.
Obama is making the same mistakes and will suffer the same fate. You'd
think he'd be smarter.

The Ox being gored is the American taxpayer.....

That's a fair response.

I'm pleasantly surprised.

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."

Willie had a very safe district. Same as Boxer. He always had more
campaign money than other pols and used that to buy the speaker of the house
position. Gave money from his funds to other politicians in exchange. He
was also a great crook. Never gave up his SF Law practice, and collected
about a $1,000,000 a year from the practice, that mostly dealt with state
law practice.

You're lucky.
Took my 95.75 year old mom down to her original home town of St Peters, Cape
Breton last week.
She loved it. A cousin gave mom, me, my wife & three sisters the use of her
house for the three days. It overlooks the marina on the beautiful Bras
d'Or Lakes.
We all had a great time but it was a little rough carrying mom & her
wheelchair up & down a small flight of narrow stairs each time we went out.

better hush up young un. We can fix it so that the medic stops his
weekly visits to your island. And what with yur emergency rooms being
open only every third Thursday, that could put the hurt on your medical
needs.

I pay for supplemental coverage. And being in good health, have not
cost the system much over the last 65 years.


We don't care about the last 65...it's the next 10 or so that concerns
us.


Only concerns me and my family. You have nothing in the game. And since
mom is 94.5 years old and still healthy, They are looking at having me
around for another 30 years.

You're lucky.
Took my *95.75* year old mom down to her original home town of St Peters,
Cape Breton last week.
She loved it. A cousin gave mom, me, my wife & three sisters the use of
her house for the three days. It overlooks the marina on the beautiful
Bras d'Or Lakes.
We all had a great time but it was a little rough carrying mom & her
wheelchair up & down a small flight of narrow stairs each time we went
out.


ooops...make that 94.75. She hits 95 early November.

My medical needs??? A visit to my GP every couple of years.
I live in the 'big city'...our new emergency room is always open...if not a
bit crowded.
