Quote:
In the legal system, when a person files lawsuit after lawsuit, one after another, and the lawsuits are found to be without merit, they are sometimes subject to being labeled by the courts as a "Vexatious litigant". Definition: "Vexatious litigation is legal action which is brought, regardless of its merits, solely to harass or subdue an adversary. It may take the form of a primary frivolous lawsuit or may be the repetitive, burdensome, and unwarranted filing of meritless motions in a matter which is otherwise a meritorious cause of action. Filing vexatious litigation is considered an abuse of the judicial process and may result in sanctions against the offender." When you think about it, a politician, trying to pass the same legislation, over and over again, and having it fail over and over, does seem to fall into the same category as a "Vexatious litigant". The CA Senate and Assembly needs to pass some new rules that censure people who chronically bring up the same laws, over and over.

Why are so many people so butthurt about patterson? Being present to vote no vs. being absent doesnt make the vote any more or less "no". It would only make sense to be upset if you wanted him to vote yes on the bill, but since he has an NRA 92% rating, chances are he was never considering voting yes.

Democrats facing difficult elections have asked Obama to take on action on the Keystone Pipeline and immigration until after the elections. that doesn't mean we think they've suddenly changed their minds, only that they are 'playing' us. Same here.

Once AGAIN... It's FAR different to be with your SO giving birth than your daughter...I grew up in California and never knew ANYONE who invited the family over to watch a birth. I think it's also VERY coincidental that the rep was watching the birth when his vote just happened to be called at the same time. Unusual that even though he voted "no" on anti-gun bills, this was the time when he needed an excuse. Finally, he's paid to represent his constituents...I'd excuse him if he was there to assist his SO, no excuses to be there for his daughter. Very finally, Occam's Razor applies...the most obvious possible reason is usually the correct reason. Apparently, he was short sighted when explained his absence...with more notice he, or anyone, could have come up with something at least believable.

Yes, Occam's razor does apply... The simplest and most logical explanation is that he didn't think a bunch of ninnies on a gun forum would be so butthurt about something that would make no difference.

Nor did he think that even though he's paid to represent the voters in his district, that it would be fair to them to skip out of the session to watch childbirth.

And to the people saying "nobody goes to watch the birth of their grandchildren", both my parents and my in-laws were (for their various grandchildren; I don't have kids). |

seriously, check his voting record. He didnt need an excuse or an explanation. If you check his voting record and you seriously still think he was making up an excuse and trying to avoid a recorded "no" vote youre nuts. He gave an excuse because he was pushed for one, he didnt just issue an excuse for the fun of it.

I'm still waiting for a response why my rep voted for it, I asked for specific reasons.
She needs to tell me exactly why she supported it even though it didn't pass.

Because she feels her seat is secure. In other words, you, my friend, are a fish out of water in her district: your values and priorities are out of step with your neighbors. You might want to remember what happened to the Jews in Berlin who pretended that was okay in the 1930s and stayed convincing themselves it would get no worse after Kristallnacht.
