Nice! I have my weapons and plenty of ammo. If those tards riot it will be target practice
Diana October 17, 2012 at 10:17 pm
And so the fun begins, if he can't get reelected the American people will result to rioting and violence, bring it, I'm with the Republican on this. Oh but wait if they start rioting now then Obummer can call Marshals Law and there won't be an election? Seems I heard this story from a very wise Man not to long ago.
Italo Domani October 17, 2012 at 11:46 pm
See what happens when all that meth makes you write dumb, incoherent crap?
Ponce de Leon October 17, 2012 at 11:49 pm
@Lash LaRue - Your list of 70 Democrats who are allegedly members of the Socialist Party is taken from a fringe, right-wing extremist website and repeated on a couple more. You can't believe everything you read on the Internet...those people aren't socialists.
Italo Domani October 17, 2012 at 11:52 pm
Jill, YOU calling TOT "rational" is priceless. Each of you have half a brain operating inside the conservative, uneducated bubble. Together it adds up to one whole scary nightmare. I can't help but wonder what you two geniuses do for a living.
Ponce de Leon October 17, 2012 at 11:58 pm
Yes, because we all know that everything people say on Twitter is true. Just like the comments on Temecula Patch. And the history lessons you have so kindly shared with us.
Popeye October 18, 2012 at 12:15 am
When I watched the debate, I was happy to see all the Racist Tea Baggers crying. Here some tissue Jill.
Popeye October 18, 2012 at 12:22 am
I would be saying the same thing for 4 years. Ha ha ha Tea Bagger.
Popeye October 18, 2012 at 12:24 am
Oooooh! Repubtard we are scared!!!!!! Ha ha ha. I just banged your wife!
Balance October 18, 2012 at 02:22 am
The results are in. Barack Obama won debate #2. Lets see what happens in debate #3 next week.
Italo Domani October 18, 2012 at 06:53 pm
Jill, That's not what the polls say.
KevWild October 19, 2012 at 10:14 pm

Thanks Rose. I'll get by. One day at a time.
Diana October 19, 2012 at 11:14 pm
Balance, please share where you got your information that Obama won debate #2, hey did anyone see the ear piece in Obamas ear, or did he have an earache?
Anon October 19, 2012 at 11:18 pm
Popeye, really? Is that all you have? Are you 12? geez! What an embarrassment to our country you are!
Balance October 20, 2012 at 01:42 am
Diana, consensus.
Anon October 20, 2012 at 01:50 am
The consensus of whom? people at the water cooler at work? I say Romney won on tact alone! Then truth, behavior, well thought out answers, manners, facts.....should I go on?
On the right side October 20, 2012 at 02:13 am
In your dreams. ALL he could do was lie and evade. He's toast!!
On the right side October 20, 2012 at 02:15 am
Anyone who wants to know what panic looks like, watch barry.
Anon October 20, 2012 at 02:17 am
You people should be embarrassed that the candidate you like has no manners whatsoever. He cannot debate with ideas and facts and has to play games. Its a shame!
Vince October 20, 2012 at 10:41 pm
Jeez....was just catching up on my reading, and golly gee willikers, it is not looking too overly promising for that colored fellow getting a 2nd Term!
LBV Collins October 20, 2012 at 11:19 pm
I often wonder, Vince, how many people actually know what the acronym "NAACP" stands for?
Vince October 20, 2012 at 11:33 pm
Well...near as I can figger it's creation in 1908 was more about DIVISION, then about transforming race relation's...leastways,. it has followed that divisive course ever since.
So i supose what it "stands for" is divisiveness, rather then the "advancement" you are fishing for...
LBV Collins October 20, 2012 at 11:42 pm
Ummm... Actually, I was referring to the "C" in "NAACP." (I should have been more clear.)
Vince October 21, 2012 at 12:03 am
Well then...I do apologize LBV, I s'pose we can blame my initial response on conditioning---one never knows who may go full blowed Lefty, Knee- jerk LibTard 'roundabouts here (AKA: The Poop-Eye Syndrome) , so I do try to stay one step ahead...You do make an excellent point, and I thank you for your attention to detail!
LBV Collins October 21, 2012 at 12:08 am
LOL! No problem, Vince. (I can appreciate your "Poop-Eye Syndrome" conditioning.)
Anon October 21, 2012 at 12:14 pm
Ponce, he is being funny. Get off your high horse and stop already. Why would you assume he is white? I have hispanic friends that talk that way.
Anon October 21, 2012 at 12:18 pm
On the right side , it is getting interesting isn't it? A few months ago, the regular libs on here were saying that Obama would win by a landslide. I am not seeing that happening. He has shown his true character and its finally coming around. He thinks his walk and his smile will take him through life. He is wrong. Its worked so far obviously because libs are taken in by B.S. but the people on the fence are going on the other side. Even if he does win again, a huge message has been sent to him. YOU ARENT THAT GOOD BARRY!!

Vince, take popeye with you, but tie him to the rear bumper.
Mirna Alfonso (Editor) October 21, 2012 at 04:41 pm
Okay that is enough. any name calling or race baiting will be deleted.

You must have Romnesia!!

Thanks for the link on Temecula guitarist murder suspects' sketches released
Bd June 17, 2013 at 11:14 am
It would be hard to prove a negative. Are you insinuating that the money for additional policeRead More protection was wasted? Seems like simple logic to me that increased police presence over time would result in less crime, which would in-turn lead to more tourism, which would bring in more money for the City. Laguna Niguel is ranked every year as one of the safest cities in the U.S. Since there's so little crime there, why do they waste their money on any police at all???
LAKE ELSINORE RESIDENT June 17, 2013 at 12:45 pm
I want to see more cops on the street and I want to know if there was less crime.. I think weRead More need more police and I believe the PSAC is a waste of money, money which could go towards more police (no matter how small).
lotsahelp June 18, 2013 at 04:07 pm
Maybe when the week is over they can give you an answer... "There will be more deputies onRead More patrol in Lake Elsinore during the week of June 17-23, a sheriff’s sergeant is reporting. The beefed up patrols come as Lake Elsinore readies for increased summertime traffic. “As part of the city of Lake Elsinore's commitment to public safety the Lake Elsinore Police Department will be deploying additional units to enforce distracted driving, seatbelt violators, drinking and driving, as well as other traffic laws, the week of June 17-23,” according to a news release from Sgt. Peter Giannakakos, who serves out of the Lake Elsinore Sheriff’s Station."

EVMWD rates are a crime! Take those darn pensions away and lower our rates. Over paid slackers!
Kevin Jon Sax June 18, 2013 at 10:59 am
Bobby Swann and John Lloyd are fantastic people. AND they are assets to the city. I'm glad and proudRead More to associate with them. --Kevin, Wildomar citizen

Typical ler....you really know how to communicate effectively.
Ken Mayes June 15, 2013 at 06:55 am
The city is so excited they forgot to put this event on the cities website.
Rose Vicente June 15, 2013 at 09:16 am
Why not a parade in the streets?
Martha L. Bridges June 15, 2013 at 07:20 pm
Rose, we've had five years of having celebrations large and small with all the trappings ofRead More city-hood that Bridgette Moore could conjure up - right down to spending money the city didn't have to purchase monogrammed M&M. I suggest it's time to ring the bell and then get back to the real work of running the city. That would include doing the essential foundational work that has been skipped over in favor of window dressing and nonsense for the first five years.
scott osborne June 13, 2013 at 12:07 am
not to mention the day before someone hit a parked car on the same street, don't worry police showedRead More a good 50 min later, Wildomar needs a discount from the sheriffs dept for sure

Thanks Toni. I was just going to leave Tammi a comment about it.
BLUESGUITAR777 June 11, 2013 at 10:16 am
That place is weird. Cult like almost in their practices. The holding out the last note of everyRead More worship song to "invoke the spirit" is just totally unnecessary. I was glad to leave.
lotsahelp June 6, 2013 at 12:34 pm
TY for catching this!!!
Jeff Greene June 8, 2013 at 09:57 am
To be clear, Supervisor Jeffries is not yet in support of charging for parking at the hospital, butRead More supported Supervisor Stone's request to have it evaluated, and is willing to consider it based on the results. In his quotes that day he mentioned that when Kaiser started charging for their new structure, they almost immediately changed their mind because the response was so negative. Supervisor Jeffries' main interest in supporting a study of all the county's parking facilities was to determine whether we could save money on the parking structures we already charge for by going to an automated system, rather than staffing it full time with multiple county employees. We have been told that we are actually losing money on the fees we collect for parking, and if that is true, we want to either switch to a cheaper collection system or eliminate the fees entirely.
Chris Twining June 13, 2013 at 12:55 am
Let's hope not. Charging for parking, especially at a hospital, is disgusting to say the least. IRead More got an idea. Let's see if just one elected official can so SOMETHING!!! other than sitting around trying to figure out more and more ways to separate us from our money. Do you have a clue as to what's going on around you? Do you get out of bed in the morning? turn on the TV? go outside? You are 10 years too late. That kind of thing from elected politicians is over. Stop trying to raise money. There are so many things out there you could be doing to make a good name for yourself, and 99% of those things involve cutting spending. Get to the bottom of some things. Imagine how people would react to that. They would swarm at your feet and hold you in high regard. And if you ever find yourself in the hospital, I will gladly come visit you as long as I dont have to pay to park.
