California Democratic Gov. Jerry Brown is a good example why trying to please everybody is a bad idea.
“the proponent of the “paddle to the left, paddle to the right” school of politics — now finds both camps firing away at his actions on a score of gun legislation today.
While the gun rights conservatives are blasting him for signing what they’re lambasting as “the strictest set” of gun laws in the country, the left is also blasting Brown — saying he has “blood on his hands” for “inexcusable” vetoes.”
