Mr. Yee’s Profession
Posted by freedomforall 10 years, 7 months ago to Politics
Leland Yee is the sole Democratic senator who voted against the very, very liberal, Democrat-written state budget, because it didn’t spend enough. Leland Yee is the man who for many years persecuted the University of California, a constitutionally independent entity, attempting to subject it to governance by the legislature.

We have that kind here, refer to the lefty politicians now in the news and the courts in our state of NSW (Australia).
I suggest there is a correlation between power and hypocrisy,
and the aggressive use of expletives.
Ha- 'state of origin', an excuse for a game series, Australians use the word football, sometimes rugby, for a game no one else would call it that, to me the only true football is soccer. Footie- was once the national winter game, now it is watching My Kitchen Rules on TV. This has to be the worst silliest inane and vastly popular program ever.
I must admit, I am amazed at how many cooking shows there are on Australian tv, even one that uses that venue to interview national politicians.
I just returned from about 2 years in Australia, and I'd be there now if immigration wasn't so difficult for people over 50. Will be doing biz here in the US until I can work out a new visa.
You recall the news furor about the Reserve Bank paying bribes in foreign countries to sell their plastic notes? What was your take on that?
My guess is that real bribery is not part of the culture here, low key after-the-contract bribery such as bottles of top Scotch, dinners, tickets to shows and game finals is fairly common. Exporting is different. I feel quite uncomfortable about bribery even when it is giving their own money. There is always the implication of theft.
