somebody give me a cheeseburger!!
so the Santa Barbara City Council is going to solve the budget problems following Dale Francisco's lead? the guy who can't understand why California is broke after eight years of Arnold; who tries to blame the Wall Street meltdown on electricians, nurses, cops and people who belong to a union.. and yet as a councilman, just approved $50000 of taxpayer money to spin some benches on State St to trick the homeless into sitting elsewhere! maybe all who voted for this should stay out of the budgeting process...at least Mayor Schneider and Bendy White want to bring the bench issue back to the council!
obviously, Dale is in campaign mode preening with his nose firmly up Wendy McCuckoo's butt, like Nipper, who gets to sit with a frail Dick Cheney at the Reagan Ranch festivities (all captured on CSPAN!)....a sad example of men, these fellows...but I'll deal with them...a few weeks in boot camp should straightened them out....
now, the NewsPress recently panicked when CKE Restaurants (Carls'Jr) threatened (again) to move their headquarters to Texas because they don't like California's regulations...I've heard this before, Carl's Jr is always crying about something..that's why they named it junior! the fact is their food sucks and the profits are down...but the News-Press took the opportunity to trash California's taxes and regulations and defend the hamburger company CEO crybaby Andy Puzder who has run the company into the ground...I'll take a Whopper any day of the week!
in 2009 , Carl's Jr was bitching and today they are still bitching!!
The parent company of Carl’s Jr. and Hardee’s restaurants said today that its brands have been severely impacted by deep food discounts offered at rival fast-food chains, especially in California.
CKE Restaurants reported a 2.7 percent decline in same-store sales in March. Same-store sales are a key indicator of a restaurant chain’s health. Even worse, same-store sales at Carl’s Jr. restaurants dropped 7 percent — a slide
CKE Chief executive Andrew Puzderblamed on the chain’s inability to compete with cheaper burgers being sold at rival chains.
"It is important to emphasize the headwinds we faced from the ongoing deep discounting of low-quality menu items by our competitors, which negatively impacted sales at both our brands," Puzder said in a statement. "We are working diligently to get Carl’s Jr. back on the positive same store sales track."
Last week, a
parent company CKE Restaurants, blamed the downturn on rivals selling cheaper, lower-quality food. And, boy, did you take issue with that. A majority of readers said they stopped going to Carl’s Jr. because the new natural-cut fries are a disaster; the commercials are too disgusting and sleazy; and the overall appearance and food-quality at Carl’s Jr. has slid dramatically.story
who will they blame it tomorrow?
businesses come and go all they time, it's called competition...free market capitalism...is CKE going to move to Texas? who cares!!! if you're going to solve the budget issues, you first need to know the value of a dollar...and the value of working for a dollar..

What do Wendy McCaw, Dr. Laura and Andrew Puzder all have in common? Wendy McCaw says biased reporters, aided by the corrupt Teamsters Union, are trying to take control of the Santa Barbara News-Press. Dr. Laura says the liberal media has forced her to move to subscription radio if she wants to exercise her First Amendment rights to free speech. And Andrew Puzder says that Carl's Jr. and Hardee's are being undercut by rival fast-food chains serving low-quality products.
Look up "victim playing" on Wikipedia.
