time to go...to the Choppah!
Wired News: "Nurses union Executive Director Rose Ann DeMoro called the decision 'an enormous victory' because Schwarzenegger 'is going to stop going after registered nurses and patient ratios.'
The governor's action came two days after California voters rejected all of his proposed government-overhaul initiatives and on the same day he took 'full responsibility' for the election debacle.
The 1-to-5 staffing ratio was not among the issues decided at the ballot box Tuesday but has been a long-sought goal of the 60,000-member California Nurses Association. Schwarzenegger sided with the hospital industry in opposing the 1-to-5 ratio, citing the added financial burden and the nation's nursing shortage.
Tensions between the governor and the nurses union escalated in December 2004, when he labeled the union a special interest and said he was 'kicking their butts.'"

Damn nurses need their butts kicked. I say "yes to the kicking of the butts of the nurses"!
Wait 'till you are a patient... You'll be crying in your soup when all you get is a hung over CNA -even if he is in school to become a Nurse some day!
Ok, maybe just a good spanking then.
