big dumb republican governor watch

This is typical GOP... no gay marriage, no minimum wage... BUT YES on tolls [taxes!] for walkers and bicyclists.

Governor vetoes bill to increase minimum wage
Thumbs down also to Gate bridge ban on tolls for walkers

Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger vetoed a bill Thursday to increase California's minimum wage, following through on a promise made by his aides at the end of the legislative session.

The governor, seeking to clear his desk of hundreds of pending bills before an Oct. 9 deadline, also vetoed a bill that would have prevented tolls from being imposed on pedestrians and bicyclists using the Golden Gate Bridge and a measure that would have banned schools from using the word "Redskins'' for team names. He also signed a bill that changes how revenue from the tax on jet fuel sales is distributed among cities and counties.

The grope-a-nator also wanted schools to be able to use the term "redskins".
