Eric Golub's message couldn't bemore timely! National Labor LeaderJimmy Hoa calls for WAR on Repub-licans, warming up the Labor Daycrowd for Barack Obama, saying
"Let's take these sons of bitches out."
Eric tackles this head kind of thinghead-on in his book: "Ideologicalbigotry is the hatred of people simplydue to their political or ideologicalbeliefs. Ideological bigotry is every bitas destructive as racial or ethnicbigotry, but receives far less attention.
Conservatives disagree with liberals.Liberals despise conservatives. Theyhate them.... Liberals hate conserva-
tives for emerely existing and breath-ing air.
Ideological bigotry must be handledin the same way as all other bigotry:With swift, loud condemnation andfull throttled self-defense"
We can read his full-throttleddefense at the Washington Times
Communities Online, World NetDaily, and Donne Tempo MagaziHe's written for Andrew Breitbart"Big Hollywood," Tucker CarlsonsDaily Caller, and has been pub-
lished by the Jewish Journal andJewish Policy Center. CommentaMagazine and Pajamas Media hahim on their blogroll. (As do we: on our blogroll at hrwf-ca.org)
His message is more important nthan ever before. Please JOIN US lunch! Bring friends. Details belo

Is It Time For FairTax?Are you getting tired of the Class Warfare that keeps creeing into your everyday life? I know Im tired of hearing Taxthe rich and Tax all those making over $250,000 per year.have never been envious of the rich but have always aspirto be one. I believe if you work hard, make good choices,
that you too may become rich! I know Im trying to do thaso enough of this mantra.
The Fair Tax may make everyone love the rich as the moreyou buy the more you pay in taxes. The tax rate would be
23% but it would abolish all federal, personal and corpora
income taxes, gift and estate tax, capital gains, alternativeminimum, Social Security, Medicare, and self-employmenttaxes. This means that there would be no withholding fromyour paycheck and you get to take more money home.
The most obvious advantage of the Fair Tax is the eliminatof the annual income tax headache and cost of tax prepartion. Government spending would be reduced by eliminatthe IRS. Some believe since workers would keep 100% oftheir wages, the increased consumer spending would leadan increase in GDP, jobs, productivity, and wages.
To oset the impact on those at poverty level or below, arebate (prebate) would be given on a monthly basis. In 20the poverty guideline for a family of four was $21,000. TheFair Tax Act of 2008 proposed to remove the marriage penalty and thus would have raised the income amount to$27,380. This means a family of four would have received
check for $525 per month, or $6,297 a year, to cover the coof the sales tax.
This tax would only tax us on what we choose to spend onnew goods or services, not on what we earn. If you choose
buy used goods used car, used home, used appliances
you do not pay the tax. A business owner or farmer buyinsomething for strictly business purposes (not for personalconsumption) would pay no consumption tax. The tax wobe charged just as state sales taxes are today. When youdecide what to buy and how much to spend, you would seexactly how much you would be contributing to the govement with each purchase. This sounds good to me.

President Obama has just conrmed that the DC earthquakeoccurred on a rare and obscure fault line, apparently known as...
"Bush's Fault"....
Scientists have just reported that there was no earthquake inD.C. last month. Studies show that it was, in fact,
our Founding Fathers rolling over in their graves....---------------
Americas rstprinted book
When the Pilgrim Fathersarrived at Plymouth, Massa-
chusetts, the inuence ofthe Bible and their Christian
faith over their lives and
literature came with them.A mere 20 years later, theBay Psalm Book, originallytitled, The Whole Booke of
Psalmes Faithfully Translatedinto English Metre, wasprinted in 1640 in Cam-
bridge, Mass. It was the rstbook printed in the colonies
as well as the rst bookentirely written in the colo-nies. The rst printing press
in New England was pur-chased and imported spe-
cically to print this volume.The book represented asacred value held by the
Puritansa faithful transla-tion of Gods word to besung in worship by the
entire congregation. Given
the harsh living condition ofthose early years, it was aremarkable achievement.
Ironic, isnt it? The rstbook printed in our nation is
not allowed in our publicstate schools today.
From the CalWatch Dog.com. website with John Hrabe come detailed articles regarding theCalifornia Redistricting Committee. He claims the committee was instructed to produce ungerrymandered districts. Instead, it was riddled with partisan gamesmanship. One Committeemember charged in an exclusive interview that the committee broke the law.
Corruption, failed vetting and Democrats in charge oered no transparency and deals were mad
behind closed doors. The accusations above look like accurate discriptions of the district in whichwe now reside.
Public employees work fewer hours than other employees because they have more dayso. Typically, the public sector jobs in California work a four-day week or less. They can retire at younger age, often between 50-55, with pensions indexed for ination of 75- 90 % of their nalsalary.
The system has to change. Ending public sector collective bargaining is the answer to theproblem. These pensions are bankrupting cities and this state. Although change is needed, itseems unlikely those who created the problem will solve it.
State pension funds currently control $432 billion in assets and suered a $109.7 billion loss in2008-09.

Redistricting UpdatThe Democrat Party Expands Its Statewide Cont
I, for one, was hopeful that a citizen commission would fairly dole out dist
and make signicant improvements to break up this one-party controlled
state. Now that the commissions work is done and they have submitted t
maps to the Secretary of State, I fear were going to miss the good ole day
gerrymandered districts drawn by our Legislature.
Be careful what you wish for, echoes in my head. In 2008, voters thou
we were taking away the Legislatures responsibility of redistricting and
placing it in the hands of fourteen non-partisan, neutral voters. Unfortuna
were on the politically correct left coast, so the selection process cant hel
but be awed. Last year, a special panel was convened to narrow an appli
pool to about 60, with our Legislature eliminating about a third of those
applicants before the State Auditor randomly picked the nal eight, and
then those eight picked the nal six.
This experiment, in hindsight, has some fatal aws. The process focuse
too heavily on minority, non-engaged (in politics) applicants at the expen
the most qualied people. The second fatal aw is that the commissionwanted specic citizen input, namely the communities of interest. They w
looking for minority ethnic communities, not necessarily economic or soc
or even geographic communities. They were not looking at voter registra
or voter turn-out either. And nally, the party in control controls everythin
this state.
The commission has been focusing on race and, while this is an importa
factor, it shouldnt be the determining factor in legislative districts. This fac
alone could be grounds for a challenge. States are allowed to have their o
guidelines for redistricting, but they must consider a handful of federal
guidelines:
Districts must be relatively the same size. There cannot be racial gerrymandering.
Districts cannot dilute the minority vote.
The districts must take into account certain criteria, including political sub
sion lines, compactness, contiguity, and communities of interest.
To challenge the new district maps there are two remedies:
Within 45 days of nal certication of the maps,
any registered California voter may le a challenge
to the nal maps in the California Supreme Court.
The 45-day period ends on September 29th.
Within 90 days of the nal certication of the maps,
a referendum petition may be led regarding any mapor portion of a map. The 90-day period to request a title
and summary from the Attorney General, collect the
required voter signatures, and le the petitions with
county elections ocials ends on November 13, 2011.

The nal maps for the Northcoast region are not good.
The Congressional District (CD02) has captured the entire
oast from the Golden Gate Bridge to Oregon, including
Trinity County and excluding Santa Rosa. In doing so, it
merges with Marin and retiring progressive Representative
ynn Woolseys district. Mike Thompson will run in his
new, home-area district which leaves an open seat here.
49.9% Democrat, 22.75% Republican, and 21.21% Decline
o State.
To date, three candidates have announced running.One is Assemblyman Jared Human, an environmental
ttorney from Marin. Norman Solomon, a progressive
uthor/activist from Marin who Sean Penn recently
tumped for. The third candidate to announce is Susan
Adams, a Marin County supervisor and nurse. So far, Jared
Human is the favorite, having raised twice that of Solo-
mon. You can pretty much bet that our Representative will
be a progressive from Marin and that county will have its
way with the entire district.
The Assembly District (AD02) is very similar to the CD02
but doesnt go farther south than Hwy 12 in Santa Rosa.Two Democrat Assemblymen are now in this district,
areer-politician Wes Chesbro and newcomer Michael
Allen. The district now leaves out Lake County and
xtends further south. Eureka is no longer the largest city
n the district. 46.45% Democrat, 25.73% Republican, and
0.78% Declined To State.
The State Senate seat (SD02) starts at the Golden Gate
ridge and goes along the coast to Oregon. It also
ncludes Lake and Trinity County, with Santa Rosa carved
ut. Del Norte and Trinity County are not happy about
osing Doug LaMalfa for Noreen Evans. The Californiaepublican Party is expected to challenge the Senate
edistricting either by referendum or in the courts. 49.73%
Democrat, 23.23% Republican, and 21.02% Decline To
tate.
As a disclaimer, the maps are not very detailed so it is hard
o see exactly where the edges of the districts are, which is
ery frustrating for those living on that edge.
If you would like to see for yourself go to
www.mpimaps.com or http://wedrawthelines.ca.gov/.
With all this bad news there has to be something positiveor us to rally behind. Now more than ever we need an
ctive, engaged, and growing Republican Women Feder-
ted in our communities. Now more than ever we need to
e informed, involved and inspired. I know RWF is up for
he challenge. We denitely have our work cut out for us!
