It WILL die in the Senate. That’s because in the Senate, every state is equal and California et al don’t have more representation than everyone else. Our founding fathers weren’t fools like our existing children in charge. Ironically, this bill is patterned after the nutcase ideas in California…….which is going broke.

This thing will hopefully die in the Senate and then they can recycle all that paper it took to print the damned thing.

UW I was speaking of Huxley – according to Wiki

“Huxley became a close friend of Remsen Bird, president of Occidental College. He spent much time at the college, which is in the Eagle Rock neighborhood of Los Angeles. The college appears as “Tarzana College” in his satirical novel After Many a Summer Dies the Swan (1939). The novel won Huxley that year’s James Tait Black Memorial Prize for fiction. Huxley also incorporated Bird into the novel.”

FF I saw a photo of him with the president of occidental and my body language training tells me they are no friends. Obama had that little guy in a grip and he looked like a cornered mouse staring into a flashlight.

Alduous Huxley was the author of Brave New World, depicting a future ‘utopia” that wasn’t a utopia at all.

Scroll down at this link to the synopsis for a clear picture of Huxley’s Brave New World.
