That makes perfect sense. Much like it makes sense to have to use paid signature gatherers and corporate funding for "populist" initiatives.

Eyman has varying groups he uses to advance these shitty laws . Each group is a cohort. Because there are multiple of them, as a larger group made up of sub-groups, they become, universally, cohorts.

your douchebaggery bothers ME more than comic sans, so next time you feel a bout coming on, feel free to jam a dick in your mouth in lieu of infecting the world with your idiocy.

Those of us who use our heads for something beside a mobile hat rack thank you in advance for your consideration.

yeah, hating comic sans is fun. hating assholes like Eyman who make their living profiting off the misfortunes of others and their lack of ability and/or time to dig into the ruinous laws they puts forth with his corporate crew of Huggy Bears is fun, too...sans the fun.

I know folks think I'm crazy because of my opposition to Obama and the strong words I use in that opposition, but I am, and always will be, for people - ALL PEOPLE.

Not a huge fan of blood-sucking douchebags, though. Eyman is about to learn that, and also why fuckmuppetry doesn't pay.(these assholes need to stop fucking with my country, starting now.)

C'mon man can't you add a few more curse words so the entire world right of Chairman Mao can ridicule us as left-wing-nut morons.

I bet Eyman uses this blog/post as a fundraising tool.

Blog post is still inaccurate: just like voter-approved I-1053, I-960, R-49, and I-601, this year's I-1185 requires tax increases to receive either two-thirds legislative approval or majority voter approval. Fee increases require a simple majority vote of the Legislature.

Blog post says it's 2/3 for tax and fee increases. That's not correct -- 2/3 for tax increases, simple majority for fee increases.

Enjoy the nice weather while it lasts.

He is doing his level best to ruin this state, and he is doing so simply as an opportunity to make money.

I am a citizen of this state, and I love it dearly.

Therefore, I am going to ruin him.

I'll start with a class action lawsuit on behalf of the citizens of the state who have been damaged by him and his cohorts, and I will couple that with one of the most bitingly satirical (and hilarious, if I do say so myself) hatchet jobs you've ever seen, if anyone is interested in participating (multimedia skills preferred, but not required). I can do it myself, but if others wants to have a little fun and fuck Eyman over at the same time, let me know. Don't worry about the legal stuff. I can handle that.

One good thing about the Citizens United decision is that you can still sue a person, artificial or otherwise.

Anyway, you bet your ass I'm angry. My only wonder is why neither of you are.

But when the voters of this state say they want something by majority rule in an election instead of rioting in the streets it shouldn't happen? I'm really confused Goldstein. But then, making sense really isn't your strong suit, is it?

Angry, bitter and threatening. A real charmer.

Take a walk. It's a beautiful day and even nicer without an income tax.

So, this means that you're not moving to Idaho? What if I put forth an initiative here, and all who see it may vote on the issue?

That way, it's not me kicking your crooked ass to the panhandle, but "the voters".

By the way, who is "we"? I thought you were a one man band? Sure, you'll blow whichever corporate CEO Hack for whichever industry and corporation that your initiative benefits the most so that you can get the funding you need to build the advertisements and get the necessary PR to dupe the citizens who are not terribly informed otherwise into voting for your piece of shit, detrimental to your fellow citizenry initiatives, but what? You got some LLC Partnership set up such that you can deflect liability when you completely fuck us over like your corporate masters do?

Why would you need that? Or, why would you need any sort of organization around what is supposed to be the last vehicle of redress for the concerned citizen? Have you turned the legislative process into a business that you profit from either way?

If so, then it would seem that you do not believe in any of the bullshit cons you put forth. You only believe that you should profit from the naive voters you dupe as you pretend to pander to them and care about their needs.

In my opinion, that makes you an enemy of the state. I, on the other hand, am a patriot. I love my country, and I understand the nature of it such that I realize that my country is its people.

You seek to destroy the people, as long as you can profit from it, and this is akin to treason. You have just made an enemy, fuckstick, and one who single handedly shut down a forum under the Sumner Redstone umbrella of companies, single-handedly.

I'm going to shut you down as well, and I am going to do so legally, because as clever as you think this little bullshit con you have going is, it's not. You're an asshole and I first want you out of y state, and then my country, because you are not worthy to call yourself an American.

Fuck off (now, or after I ruin you. Your call.)

Also, I believe you should ask @40 for a correction. You only fuck goats for fees 2/3rds of the time, right? The rest of the time you do it with simple majority vote of the knuckle dragging Neanderthal Republican neurons in your brain.
