Well I say good on Jerry Brown for this one thing. I don't agree with him on anything else, but at least it shows he's not all bad.

Jerry Brown did it for me when he refused to defend the state during the Prop 8 fight.
He's an attorney. He's attorney general. He does not get to pick and choose what he will and won't do according to his personal opinion. His JOB is the defend the state and the state's laws. |

He's got quite a bit to overcome with me too,
During his term as governor, he helped quash the cross town freeway here in Sac, and sold off the land that had already been purchased for it. Now we have gridlock on the artery it was meant to keep fluid. His forward thinking capabilities are there, but he chooses his monied interests over them Also, remember that he said he was going to give his attention to the governorship, but as soon as he got elected, opened a candidacy for president |

No reason to build a new freeway if everyone rides the bus, and frustration with traffic congestion might do the trick to get mass transit funded and used by the general public. Naturally, most of the "elite" won't mingle with the unwashed masses: giving up personal transportation is for "the others". |

That's what he did in this case, which is why I commended him. Don't get me wrong, Jerry Brown is the last person I would like to see elected governor (with the possible exception of Gavin Newsom), and I can't think of one other thing I like about anything he's done. I was just surprised that he did this one good thing.
