California - again

"brazenly unconstitutional."

Even for the nutcakes who run California, this sets a new standard for lunacy.  SACRAMENTO - California would cast its 55 Electoral College votes for the winner of the national popular vote under a bill designed to change the way the president is elected and increase the state's influence in national elections. The bill, approved Tuesday by the Senate, would help draw candidates to the nation's most populous state for intensive campaigning, said Sen. Debra Bowen, D-Redondo Beach, who carried the bill in the Senate. AP Wire | 08/22/2006 | Senate backs plan to give electoral votes to popular vote winner There is, potentially, a bright side.  When thirteen Southern states seceded from the United States in 1861, there was nothing in the Constitution that made it illegal. Only President Lincoln's fierce, almost singular opposition drove the Union to call them on it, and wage a four years war that saw 970,227 men killed, or wounded.  In this case, California has committed a grossly unconstitutional act, one that even the Looney Tunes 9th Circuit Court must recognize.  If they persist, we will, sadly, be duty bound to mobilize and destroy the freebooters.  When it's over, California shan't have electoral votes enough to override Idaho. The Barn Brigade stand at the ready. Oooh-Rah!
