• California’s legislative leaders want to milk more campaign money

  19-08-2018 21:00 via ocregister.com
  
  Jesse Unruh, the legendary speaker of the state Assembly during the 1960s, was fond of pithy quips, and one of his more enduring is that “money is the mother’s milk of politics.”
  Before Unruh became the Assembly’s leader in 1961, the financing of legislative campaigns was largely controlled by Capitol lobbyists, who adhered to the “select and elect” philosophy of the lobbying trade’s most famous – or infamous – practitioner, Artie Samish.

• After 65 years, US and North Korea should end state of war

  19-08-2018 20:00 via ocregister.com
  
  It has been decades since bombs fell and bullets flew on the Korean peninsula. Yet the U.S., China, North Korea, and South Korea still technically are at war. The Korean War ended in an armistice, not a peace treaty.
  The time is long overdue for the “combatants” to declare a state of peace.
  Until now formally ending the war might have seemed premature. Despite Pyongyang’s sometimes pacific protestations, it didn’t seem like the North Korean leadership actually wanted peac
