I don't think California is that big a people magnet anymore.

A one way 10' U-haul truck rental from San Francisco to Dallas $1219.00
Same truck one way rental from Dallas to San Francisco $743.00

It's not just L.A.

My 40 minute commute in San Diego yesterday....3 hours 8 minutes.

...for no particular reason.

The traffic report; "Yeah the 5 and the 8 are at a standstill. There's no accident, everyone left work at the same time."

Christ, I hope people go to Oregon, and not Utah. Cause i'm going to Utah, but only because the womam i'm going to marry is from Utah. Our plan is to move to utah after she finish's vet school in may 2011. She's fed up with this place, Im from here and im fed up with this place, and neither of us wants to raise kids here.

I would really hate to see the asshats that live here, move there, ruin the place, and give me a bad name by association.

Mr. Obama's performance is at the core of the US now. From the economy to religion, to race relations.

Obama has not been the leader I wanted an progressive to espouse. But he has alienated many in the country by his community organizer mentality.

For both reasons Mr. Obama will be another Jimmy Carter. High ideals without any results or respect.
