Comments on: Ryan’s Reccomendations — Election 2006 http://arcanius.silverfir.net/blog/ryans-reccomendations-election-2006 The life and thoughts of Ryan McElroy Wed, 03 Dec 2008 22:45:37 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6.5 By: Alan http://arcanius.silverfir.net/blog/ryans-reccomendations-election-2006#comment-38058 Alan Fri, 03 Nov 2006 00:22:20 +0000 http://arcanius.silverfir.net/wp/ryans-reccomendations-election-2006#comment-38058 Ryan, I like your comments, but <a href="http://www.pugethouse.com/blog/2006/10/initiative-933-is-great-for.html">I933 will cause more than a few headaches</a>. Specifically, it: - has the potential to paralyze ALL land restrictions, like Oregon's Measure 37, - gives developers more leverage to convert farmland, - does not reimburse property owners who were damaged during the affected 10 years, - but rather lures new speculators with legal leverage, and The language is a little more devious than you give credit. Ryan,
I like your comments, but I933 will cause more than a few headaches. Specifically, it:

- has the potential to paralyze ALL land restrictions, like Oregon’s Measure 37,
- gives developers more leverage to convert farmland,
- does not reimburse property owners who were damaged during the affected 10 years,
- but rather lures new speculators with legal leverage, and

The language is a little more devious than you give credit.

That being said, Cantwell did vote against the Military Commission Act, which is, to my mind, an important ethical barometer.

He's a very nice man. I'd probably vote for him if I could vote... But alas, I'll have to wait for the 2008 elections to vote. Erik Fretheim goes to my church. He’s a very nice man.
