Welcome New Second District Residents |
San Bernardino County’s redistricting plan became official on Oct. 27, 2011, and I am happy to welcome the residents of Agua Fria, Arrowbear Lake, Blue Jay, Cedar Glen, Deer Lodge Park, Enchanted Forest, Fredalba, Grass Valley, Green Valley Lake, Lake Arrowhead, Rim Forest, Running Springs, Skyforest, Smiley Park, and Twin Peaks to the Second District.
Redistricting is a constitutional requirement to preserve the principle of one person–one vote, but despite that significance, it will go mostly unnoticed.

Reflections on the Virtue of Gratitude |
I listened to one of the “Occupy” protestors trying to explain why she was camping out. She rambled on about wanting a free college education, a free car, and free health insurance. In the same breath she managed to express disdain for this country and the freedom she has to obtain an education, drive and make healthy choices.
