Greed and harball persuastions is the nature of the beast that is politics. nothing ever goes without a check handed here... a check handed over there... it is what it is. Thats why less of it, is always better.

But besides all that, Good Benninghoven is gone, Hip hip Hurray! The guy who worte this article really sound slike a Crybaby. making Benninghiven out to be a "martyr" oh come on. The same Enviormental special intrest play the same game, but becuase they are out to save the sea turtles and the fat lazy seals, thier lobbying and corruption is just!

But fisherman put together money form the collective, and from related buisness to stop the closures, and oppose Benninghoven, and were the bad guys, As if the MLPA itself isnt a child of the same special intrest from the enviormental left.

In Sacramento when they run out of toilet paper, they use the Bee

Thanks for passing on the article. I love the "objectivity" of the author of the article, poor Don B. a tireless beurocrat ....

"The effort generated hundreds of e-mails to the state Senate opposing him"

wow it actually worked!

i would like to think so, it's great to see results so quickly

This does reinforce the message that all those email and letters sent during the MLPA campaign were not in vain. This is a political process and if you don't voice your opinion, even if you think it is pointless to do so, you are sealing your own fate.

Now Beninghoven can nod off at home instead of the meetings. Hopefully his replacement won't be worse.

I sent my e mail requesting that he Not be confirmed.

This should serve as notice ! Don't give up the Fight.

Gawd.
Just reading the article title and the first sentence was enough to make me throw up in my mouth.

That was a perfect example of amateurish, high school quality journalism. At least the author didn't have any bias.

Think about it this way, perhaps the very things that make our broken system dysfunctional may keep the MLPA process frozen for a good amount of time.
I still find it appalling that in the midst of a massive budget crisis this process is even being considered. What a huge waste of time and money.

Bleh!
