Open up that golden gate

Watching the republicans this week show yet again how little of a shit they give about the American people as they do everything in their power to shut the government down, and feeling the frustration that so many Americans feel with republicans complete and total inability to lead or to govern, it was nice to see this piece by Digby showing that when you elect sane people as they did in California over the last couple of election cycles, government can get good things done for the American people.

From immigration reform to sensible gun control, from balancing their budget to leading America in jobs created, from allowing gay marriage to protecting a woman's right to choose, California is leading the way for the rest of America.

And with demographics being what they are (lots of old white people dying, lots of Latinos turning 18), it's only a matter of time before more and more of America is seeing the same results as those in California.

California I'm coming home indeed.

Peace,
