MY FAVORITE CONSPIRACY THEORY

I believe that the Republicans have spent years punishing California for not being a Republican state. When Bush was in power, he did everything he could to insure that California did not get federal funding. If a military base was closed, there was a good chance that base was located in California.

Pundits agree that Silicon Valley (located in California) has many of the solutions which will fuel the economic recovery. Silicon Valley cannot give us solutions unless they have money to invest in these solutions.

However, the stimulus dollars being spent everywhere else are not being spent in California. It was really easy to manipulate this. All our governor had to do was to not fund the agencies that have to approve the proposed projects. (In the name of saving money, of course.)

I believe that the Republicans WANT the economy to stay bad until after the congressional elections. This is because they want to blame the trouble that THEY caused on the current administration. HOW SELFISH IS THIS?

The Republicans that I know want the best for this country, just like the Democrats that I know want the best for this country. What I dislike is when either party uses manipulative tactics to get people to make decisions out of fear rather than to make decisions using reason.
