When he was gov the first time during the 70s he delayed the spraying of Malathion for the infestation of the Mediterranean Fruit fly for a long enough period of time that the entire agriculture crop of the state was threatened. Then it took massive effort to conquer the fruit fly. I think he felt a kinship to them. The cost was in the tens of billions to farmers.

In '80-'81 or so, when the commies were there proselytizing and attempting the subjugation of the people.<br /><br />I'm Catholic and have found that Jesuits (especially new ones) are highly questionable and I'm suspicious of them. I'm pretty sure the Order was compromised by the commies prior to the '60s and became not soldiers for Christ, but yellow dogs for the Kremlin. Remember Daniel and Philip Berrigan? Also, the person currently holding the title "Pope" is a Jesuit. Not very sure of him. But he was pretty lefty in Argentina.<br /><br />@Boligat -- I like the idea of sound-proof glass cubicles. But we should be able to pump the air out of them. <br /><br />@Mike Porter, @Fred Ciampi, @Rod -- Pence reminds me of the Man from Glad (early version, not the puffy-hair version).<br /><br />And why do these "debates" have audiences?<br />Danhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13668828493801753456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8993108951931633758.post-22649653654913622152016-10-05T18:43:32.216-05:002016-10-05T18:43:32.216-05:00That was a debate?

His tactic became fairly obvious about 2 minutes into it. Interrupt early, often, loudly, and repeat the same BS over and over.<br /><br />I guess what really chafed my ass was the multiple times Kaine said Pence couldn't defend Trump's actions. And, when Pence would start the defense, Kaine would interrupt AGAIN! I really wanted Pence to yell, "How can I defend my running mate if you won't shut the f**k up?!"<br /><br />Sorry to appear sexist, but the moderator was horrible. She was timid and lost control almost immediately. And I really think she was trying to remain sort of unbiased. Hard to tell, though, since she almost couldn't be heard.<br /><br />I seriously think moderators for these events should have the sound mixer in front of them, then tell the candidates their microphones will be shut off the second their time limit is up, and will remain shut off until it is their turn to speak again. Of course, CNN and NBC debates would not even have the Republican's mic plugged in!

Having not yet recovered from the mere 30-minutes of exposure to last week's disappointment, I instead chose to binge-watch <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Last_Man_Standing_(U.S._TV_series)" rel="nofollow"><i>Last Man Standing</i></a>. I don't watch allot of scripted TV these days, but I came across this show last year. It's refreshing because it's the most overtly anti-PC show I've seen in ages. Tim Allen plays a straight-conservative gun-owning, hunting, anti Obama/Hillary, business-running man's-man who doesn't hesitate to express his politically incorrect feelings on any given topic. His wife was a geologist who worked for an energy company that does fracking. In this day and age, I have absolutely no idea how this show got made, much less got run on any mainstream media network, much less ABC. (Imagine the pitch meeting where someone suggested making a comedy where <i>it would be the conservative endlessly making fun of Progressives</i> where the protagonists didn't spontaneously combust) Either way, it's one of the very few "comedies" these days where I actually laugh out loud.<br /><br />So don't ask me what happened last night. At this point, what difference does it make?<br /><br /><b>Clueless Joe:</b> What's disturbing is that most Democrats still consider Joe the adult in the room.
