A..."..the democrats cheat and cheat big." Anonymous 1:12 PM.<br /><br />Democrats ran a better election campaign, and moderate platform policies are better for humans. Hurray for hard working campaign workers, and for the common sense of voters this election.<br /><br />Radical right-wing policies, plus the obstruction from the Republican controlled "do nothing" congress do not appeal to most people. And, congratulations to moderate Republicans who are now voting against such policies, or have become Independents or Democrats.<br /><br />But back to your "cheat and cheat big", voter obstruction and fraud comment. Since you brought this issue up, lets counter with the following: 1) <a href="http://thetruthoncommonsense.com/2012/11/08/voter-obstruction-backfires/" rel="nofollow">26 states with Republican governors restrict voting</a>; and 2) <a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2012/10/05/us/politics/nathan-sproul-a-republican-operative-long-trailed-by-voter-fraud-claims.html?pagewanted=all&_r=0" rel="nofollow">Republican voter registration fraud.</a> Then there were those 4-8 hour lines to vote in Florida and Ohio. Meantime, you have not supported your allegation of Democrats intentionally throwing Republican votes in the Bay, no surprise.<br /><br />Fortunately with the re-election of the President, the Supreme Court has a chance to become more moderate. And hopefully the top 2% wealthy will lose their additional 11 year tax break. That 11 year tax "cheat" (your word) has not been good for the country. But then there was the big money "cheats" that also drove this country, and others, into the major Recession we are now recovering from.Kathy Meehhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14000878422176050692noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7481238059942383326.post-31927611808009429992012-12-01T13:21:11.913-08:002012-12-01T13:21:11.913-08:00STFU?

But I try to be careful in choosing my wording.<br /><br />Half Moon Bay has had ongoing Eco-NIMBY interference with enlarging their sewer capacity, the artificial wetlands lawsuit created on private property to be developed, and other land usage.<br /><br />Eco-NIMBY interference in balanced economic development issues seems to be typical along the coast, but is also evidenced with some projects in the county.<br /><br />Half Moon promotes tourism, but tourism, expensive homes, farming, and small business still do not seem to balance their city budget.Kathy Meehhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14000878422176050692noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7481238059942383326.post-68273061792366663722012-11-27T23:35:23.474-08:002012-11-27T23:35:23.474-08:00I doubt this is due to Eco-NIMBYs.

The planning commission is unpaid.
