Calif. Dem steals famous Texas slogan to prove she means business; gets laughed out of Dodge instead
March 30, 2017 | Frieda Powers | Print Article   



Sen. Kamala Harris raised a rallying cry for her big, bad state of California but the effort resulted in collective social media laughter.

“No, you don’t want to mess with California. Retweet if you agree,” the Democrat tweeted Tuesday, linking to an interview of Gov. Jerry Brown with Chuck Todd on NBC’s “Meet the Press.”

It's funny that the slogan was came about as an anti-littering thing in the mid-80s.  I find that many people think it has a long history.

California is open and tolerant, their slogan should be "Please mess with California, we enjoy it!"

I'd consider her to be one of the front-runners for the democratic presidential nomination in 2020.

And if she makes it, she'll walk from the convention with 45% of the [popular] vote, right off the bat...

Yes, I remember that it came out because of an anti-littering campaign.... BUT it has evolved from there into a general caution ... like the don't tug on Superman's cape thing.

Kamala Harris.

From San Francisco C&C (District) Attorney, to State Attorney General, to Babs Boxer's replacement in the Senate.

And what is it that boils up to the top of the pot and glazes itself on the sides at the water line?

Back in high school in the mid-80s, we had a guy from Texas move to our sending district (and quickly became our 1st string quarterback) and he often wore an anti-littering campaign tee shirt with the "Don't Mess With Texas" slogan.
