Brilliant Woman Solves All of California's Problems

  • Thread starter B. Elliott
  • Start date
In summary, the woman speaking was on a soapbox about California's new land policies, and the negative effects they have on the east coast. Some people in the audience laughed at her, while others seemed to be captivated. She went on for a long time, and I found the information she was presenting to be quite ignorant.

The look on the face of the guy wearing the white shirt and seated a few rows behind her is just priceless! :smile:

Looks like a student trying for extra credit in her government class.
Or at least I hope.

Ouch - that's an assault and insult to the cerebral cortex.

I did get the part about stuff and things being very California.

That was impressive! At first I thought she might just be one of those people that gets really nervous and can't stop talking or form thoughts while speaking publicly. Then she went into the bit about slavery on the east coast. Ugh!

I wonder how long she was talking for. There were several cuts in the video and there were some different people sitting there each time. I'm trying to imagine her going on like that for 20 minutes or more. I'd pay to see that.:confused::-p:smile:

I'd pay NOT to see that.

What California dialect is this? Is she running for Miss America? Ignorance is bliss.

The final, feeble "applause" must be someone swatting a fly.

You were able to decipher what her side was?

She's the secretary of the treasury actually.

OMG. Big boobs. Pretty face. Dudes had probably been asking her opinion on everything since age 12. "Oh yeah, tell us more, don't hold back. (just keep bouncing!)" Poor gal probably never had a chance to read a book.

That was just SO cosmic. Sata Cruz is it, man. Like the last time I was there there was this gypsy selling smiles. That was such a bummer. And so now because of famers and land and free stuff. Think about it. This is So stoned.

honestly, 5 minutes into that kinda of trash I would have yelled "OH MY GOD, SHUT UP, go back to the salon". Democracy has it's pros and very very annoying cons.

Is that supposed to be a pretty girl? Not in my books. But to each their own.

She was on the side of the new land California union where everything is free until they sell it in the market.

Can't even write this stuff. She could make millions selling her material.

My thoughts exactly. If I walked by her walking to class I wouldn't even notice her.

I'm assuming you mean that her mouth is shut when you are walking by.

I didn't see her address the smug issue.

What's wrong with a perfect pesticide, or the free market? They laughed at Einstein too, you know.

Ooops. My bad. Watched the video again and realized that I propably never once looked at her face. :blushing:

But I would describe her little oration as a "stream of unconsciousness".

No reason to go insulting hair stylists, now...


I wonder what the farmers think about their food being "free"...pretty much all crops are patented now, and are designed to be sterile, requiring farmers to buy expensive seeds every year.

Sounds like Paris Hilton with a slightly different voice and a little dumber.

"and they believe in slavery, and made in China"

My IQ just dropped by 20 points.

Someone had to draw the flack and give Dan Quayle and Yogi Berra a reprieve. Honestly though, even on my most apathetic and elitist day I find it impossible to believe that 20% of americans can't find america on the map (unless they included 3 year olds in their study)

Is that Mario Lopez?

Her name is Lauren Upton, as per a wiki page about her. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caitlin_Upton

There's a funny video by Jimmy Kimmel trying to dissect what she was talking:

I meant the presenter. I didn't think her name was Mario.
