Since when is that a major concern?

There are plenty of OTHER newsgroups for political arguments, Dwight.

Neither morse code nor amateur radio is on the special election
concerning recall of the elected Governor of California.

This newsgroup is about AMATEUR RADIO POLICY.

Read back over this newsgroup. During
the last presidential election, several thousand messages were posted on
that subject alone.

Oh, my, that makes it "right," does it? I don't think so...


In fact, just about every major event happening in the
world recently has been discussed in this newsgroup at some point (and more
than a few minor events). The California recall vote is certainly not going
to be an exception to that.

"Dissed," not discussed, Dwight.

There's been a whole lot of spleen-venting by a lot of ignorant keyboard
rattlers concerning "world geopolitics," all done by those who don't have
a good clue as to what they are about.

If you are not a registered voter in California,
then you have no cause to carry on as if you were
nor have you any authority whatsoever on
California politics.

Nonsense. What happens in this country, anywhere in this country, is of
interest to any American. What happens in California, or any other state,
has an impact on the rest of the nation.

Nonsense...to the easterners who never considered California as ever
belonging to the union. :-)

There's NO amateur radio in the special recall election in California.

So, while it is true those outside
the state don't vote in California, that clearly doesn't prevent them from
commenting on the subject.

I'm aware. :-)

I'm also aware of the provincial bigotry of easterners and enviousness
of the most populous state in the USA (about 1 in 8 Americans live
here) and the fact that California's budget ranks 5th through 7th
(depending on standards) of world NATIONS.

Just the same, there is NOTHING about amateur radio in the special
recall election in California. Nothing.

Go bitch about something non-amateur elsewhere...
