Even me

Last night, while we waited for the start of the March meeting of the SOCCCD board of trustees, a friend hipped me to the fact that Board President Don Wagner, who is running for state assembly, mentions little ol’ me in his campaign statement!

No way! I said.

Yes way, she said.

She showed me. If you go to the OC Registrar of Voters site, you’ll find info about the Republicans running for the 70th Assembly District, including the Wagster. Click on the link to Don’s campaign statement and up comes, well, his campaign statement, where he informs us that “We deserve better from government. I oppose reckless spending, job killing regulations, and ever more taxes and bonds.”

He goes on to quote Ken Mettler, of the California Republican Assembly, Larry Smith of Family Action PAC, and State Senator Mark Wyland. He mentions some endorsements, including “radio host Hugh Hewitt, columnists Michelle Malkin and Star Parker.”

Then he writes:
Even my long time adversary, liberal college professor Roy Bauer, knows I threaten his leftist ideology. He’s written that I’m “an anti-union, liberal-bashing, prayer-making right-winger. But he’s smart.”

Leaders you trust, and the radical left, know that I’m the proven conservative for Assembly.
OK, Don. Send your thank-you note—and, if you’d like more of my special “support,” a fabulous cash prize—to Roy Bauer, School of Humanities and Languages, Irvine Valley College.

P.S.: my niece Sarah likes Gumby and Pokey.
