The dream of most Americans is to eventually own their own little piece of heaven - their home.  Usually it will sit on an acre or less of land that we get to rake leaves and mow the grass.  But hey!  It is exercise!

That is for most of this country.  But not in Oregon!  The environmentally friendly state passed a law 30 years ago that took all power to regulate land use away from localities and gave it to the state.  And since then, the State has decided what you can and cannot do with our land.  Period, no discussion.  So you lose the right to use your land as you see fit.

Well, when the citizens woke up and realized what the legislature had done, they sought relief.  But the legislature turned a deaf ear on them.  So what to do?  How about pass a law revoking the old law!

So they did.  Twice.  In 2000, and 2004.  And in both cases, Judges, the self appointed naysayers and gods struck down what a majority of Oregonians wanted!  The last time by 61%!  And the reason that the last judge gave for striking down the law?  Right out of the Ruth Buzzi School of law!  Because it would limit the ability of the state to determine what they wanted to do with your land!  That is right!  Not what they could do to their land, but to with your land!

Even more insidious, it appears the quack, err Judge that struck down the original law had a BIG conflict of interest!

The proletariats of the Union of Socialized Counties of Oregon have one last chance.  As with 38 other states in the US, they do elect their judges.  So the only way they are going to overthrow their yokes of judicial oppression is to vote the clowns out!  And some have taken that up as their sole purpose in elections.  I wish them well.  It will be nice to welcome Oregon back into the free states of the United States, instead of a communist dictatorship of judges and environmentalists.
