Politicians are overpaying themselves
State Assemblyman Anthony Portantino (D-La Caņada Flintridge) has let the cat out of the bag on what goes on in the California Legislature as to what it costs each legislator to run his or her office each year. This is shocking! So I hope the readers are...Tags: Entertainment, Music Theater, Theater, Tony Awards, Elections

The Crosby Chronicles: Politicians don't make good teachers
Gov. Brown signed a bill last Thursday that requires California schools to use history textbooks and lessons that mention positive contributions from the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community. No other state has such a requirement.

Hat's off to Portantino

Portantino deserves to be questioned

Sharpening both sides of the ax
It intrigues and puzzles me that those who have axes to grind never sharpen both sides of the ax. This is particularly true for those who vehemently oppose any sort of gun control.

A clear opposition to smart meters
Smart meters aren’t worth the $50 million cost to Glendale after the $20-million federal stimulus grant — they may pose health risks, their transmissions pose security and privacy risks and their rollout is premature.
