If you don't want to write a dissertation on your personal or political views and just check a box because arguing about a heated topic where both parties are actually not going to change each others minds.... I rather bash my head against a wall and yell at the wall "You should not hurt me." Someone expressing their opinion by press a button, is like voting by checking a box. Just a simple, easy way to express yourself. dahogre 2010-10-12T16:48:38Z dahogre comment-34299 2010-08-05T05:06:14Z 2010-08-05T05:06:14Z Hammond added that she asked Oseguera about hiring a diverse staff, in terms of race and gender. Oseguera hired three males to work as auditors. “There are a lot of women who know how to audit,” Hammond said. “I don’t know why he couldn’t find one.” What does that have to do with a snowball's chance in hell? dahogre 2010-08-05T05:06:14Z dahogre comment-34296 2010-08-05T04:38:46Z 2010-08-05T04:38:46Z Sweet. dahogre 2010-08-05T04:38:46Z dahogre comment-34196 2010-08-04T04:29:26Z 2010-08-04T04:29:26Z That is a fantastic point. dahogre 2010-08-04T04:29:26Z dahogre comment-29095 2010-06-04T22:34:33Z 2010-06-04T22:34:33Z booo leave the crappy tag lines to other crappy publications. boooo, boooo . dahogre 2010-06-04T22:34:33Z dahogre comment-29094 2010-06-04T22:27:19Z 2010-06-04T22:27:19Z Would it fall under slander to load evidence up and name this masked attorney?

It is then taken to a federal court which is then a toss up depending upon the politics of the judge, which of course be argued by both sides. Arizona is a state that belongs to a union - this union joined for a great good and for protection. They are now feeling like they are not being protected but taken advantage of by the federal system ignoring them. dahogre 2010-05-27T05:11:39Z dahogre comment-28304 2010-05-27T05:07:52Z 2010-05-27T05:07:52Z I certainly hope so - that is another legal issue ignored by everyone. dahogre 2010-05-27T05:07:52Z dahogre comment-27662 2010-05-22T01:55:10Z 2010-05-22T01:55:10Z I never really knew how much about Sacramento politics I had no clue about. @ Rhonda E. - could you do me a favor - giant blocks of text are a pain to read in this format.

Did they set aside some money raised for a grant or a bond to pay for the park - say for maintenance and upgrades for five-ten years? dahogre 2010-05-21T17:49:54Z dahogre comment-27597 2010-05-21T17:40:34Z 2010-05-21T17:40:34Z I have to agree in part with you Jim - Something needs to happen. Their has been too much gross-over spending in too many Cities. I believe a 10% pay cut is necessary for any state employee for the City of West Sacramento, over 55-65K should see it. With 300 employees(?), let us guess that 175 make over 65K, even if they only made 66,000 - that would be over 500K. That is a good start for the entire process, now let us move on to some of the 'back-scratching' situations....... dahogre 2010-05-21T17:40:34Z dahogre comment-27593 2010-05-21T17:26:16Z 2010-05-21T17:26:16Z @ Jim - Do you have any documentation/ evidence to back your story?

Those who are already in these council positions are looking at careers in politics not just serving the people for a period four to ten years, then moving on with their lives. But they are looking at being in these positions of power for as long as possible. I think it would be a great idea to have a small section of upcoming Public Meetings, Town Hall discussions and etc... I have no real Idea where to look for these things. And while I have interest, I well never remember to look for where these things are actually listed. dahogre 2009-09-26T01:11:53Z dahogre comment-14239 2009-09-24T02:53:45Z 2009-09-24T02:53:45Z Very good point and it saddens me. dahogre 2009-09-24T02:53:45Z dahogre comment-14207 2009-09-23T03:46:36Z 2009-09-23T03:46:36Z This situation is definitely going to get worse before it gets better.
