Grits for Breakfast, best blog name ever, had an interesting post this morning on the situation developing in California: California requested $7 billion in federal bailout aid at the same moment they're about to be held in contempt for not ponying up for an $8 billion prisoner health care tab. "US Federal District Judge Thelton Henderson made it clear Monday he expects California to pay $8 billion for seven new inmate medical facilities." Of course, with a few less people in prison for life sentences as "habitual offenders" for stealing $150 in videotapes from K-Mart, California might not need EIGHT BILLION DOLLARS.
