For years, we have been told that LA’s constitution makes the leges impotent. Despite what many have said to the contrary none of the leges ever admit that is simply false and a cop-out.

All one need do is to just look at all the statutes whereby the leges have given away their power to the governor and others including the power of taxation.

Today, we read where the leges own employee is telling them that it’s not the constitution that makes them impotent. It’s the lack of testosterone. See story here.

To paraphrase Jack Nicholson in “A Few Good Men”, the leges can’t handle the truth.

Kudos to Butch Speer for telling it like it is, but keep your head down, Butch, messengers can be hunted 24/7/365 in the Capitol and there is no bag limit.
