Today, is our Assemblyman, Jared Huffman’s birthday. So we made a special Birthday Blingee. We likeys him even though he has not made hedgehogs legal in California yet nor has he allowed me the ability as an adult adoptee to access my original birth certificate (even though I can trace my birthroots to the 1400s.)

Jared Huffman is a prime example of how bad and stupid term limits are. Huffman represents us well in Sacramento and we would love to keep him as our Assemblyman for very long time, but those darned term limits get in the way of districts being able to keep good representatives. Without term limits, representatives have time to tackle problems with long term perspective. With term limits, representatives are often dependent on unelected career staffers and lobbyists. Term limits never made sense. Marin maven has always rejected term limits as a symptom that voters are too lazy to get off their rear ends to vote. Don’t like who is in office? VOTE THEM OUT. We never get anywhere close to even 95% voter turnout. THAT IS THE PROBLEM.

So what will happen in 2012? Huffman will probably be in line to be our State Senator and we will have to share him with San Francisco if Mark Leno steps into another office.

More Marin reports that today is also Marin County’s 160th Birthday. Are you thinking what I am thinking? Huffman’s birthday is the same day as Marin County. This is a sign people.

How are you going to celebrate Assemblyman Huffman’s and Marin County’s birthday? Binge Drinking, perhaps?
