What Happened Arnold?

Dedicated To The Calamity That Is California And It’s Politics

We find ourselves in a POLITICAL CALAMITY not just in our Nation's capital but here in California as well. Everyday we watch our Country slip farther and farther away from the original vision of our Founding Fathers. We watch as California crumbles underneath the weight of a crushing deficit without the needed leadership to put our state back on track. "We The People" can no longer sit idly by and wait. Take the first step. It is your responsibility to arm yourself with information. You must seek out facts and make up your own mind. No one can tell you how to think, YOU MUST THINK FOR YOURSELF! Part of the reason we are so deeply entrenched in mediocrity is we’ve been all too willing to accept people and their word at face value. We are far too trusting of our Teachers, Main Stream Media and our Politicians. We send our kids to school and expect they will be taught an accurate depiction of History, when in fact History is often rewritten to reflect the views of the “politically correct”. We read newspapers and watch the nightly news and expect we will be told the truth, but instead we’re given agenda based reporting. We elect politicians and trust they will stand by their word and make decisions based on our best interest, only to find we’ve been sold out to special interests. Look around: The herd mentality hasn’t worked out so well, especially here in California. YOU MUST GET INFORMED, BE INFORMED AND STAY INFORMED!

JUNE 23, 2009: Simian Snub-China Says No Golden Monkeys For The Los Angeles Zoo

By CalamityDevon

“The Golden Monkey exhibit will bring visitors face to face with these beautiful and rare animals….”

Or in reality, cost taxpayers MILLIONS for absolutely nothing but an empty exhibit at the Los Angeles Zoo.  China reneged last week on a 2002 deal with then Mayor Jim Hahn to loan three Golden Monkeys to the LA Zoo. Hahn went to China on a trade mission in hopes of securing Panda’s for the zoo.  That request was denied and Hahn was instead offered a consolation prize of the rare Golden Monkey’s.  The negotiated 10 year lease would have cost $100,000 in annual payments to China.   The exhibit cost a reported $7.4 MILLION dollars.  Included in the total, $4,500 for Feng Shui Consultant  Dr. Simona Mainini, Architect and Feng Shui Master.

The exhibit was completed in the first part of 2008 and has sent empty ever since.

Los Angeles currently faces a $529 MILLION dollar unresolved budget deficit for the fiscal year that starts on July 1.
