Grayout ping. I hope a presshole accidently pushes the wrong button on this down the road and we get a good psycho quote.....

[chiefqc]

Spaceman Davis is sure having his problems.

SERVES HIM RIGHT, NO PITY HERE!!

[socal_parrot]

The governor said that California is in better shape today than it was three years ago

What color is the sky in his world?

Here is some more California Tax News.

[Reeses]

Why elect Simon to save the socialists? A better strategy may be to let the socialists implode. This sequence of events is classic, time tested, most effective way ever discovered to stop socialism. Now that they've driven to the cliff, let them continue over the edge.

[Phantom Lord]

Gov. Gray Davis said yesterday that he intends to solve the money woes without raising taxes.

"My intent is to present a May revise without raising taxes," Davis said.

Just where is Davis's "promise" to not raise taxes as the headline says he did?

[w_over_w]

"Not only will that be wrong, but it will send a strong signal to Wall Street that California is an unreliable credit risk."

As long as Davis is governor California will always be an unreliable credit risk. Also, IMHO, I think the "worst-case scenario" is re-electing this guy. I have a pretty good grasp on any fear issues in my life but it's scary what this state is capable of electing. Thanks for the update John.

Sen. Don Perata, D-Oakland, said the size of the budget deficit makes it almost impossible to know how to deal with it.

"I don't see any way around a tax increase," he said at a meeting of the Sacramento Press Club.

Don't believe this lying pig... this scumbag spreads YOUR money around like the end of the world!!! It's how they build their communist, socialist power. That's the bottom line.

[Digger]

Simon better stay on top of this or they will bury him with debt & blame him if elected.

[BornOnTheFourth]

Sen. Don Perata, D-Oakland..."I don't see any way around a tax increase," he said at a meeting of the Sacramento Press Club.

I can't type my response...Jim said no profanity.

The governor said that California is in better shape today than it was three years ago and that he has positioned the state for success.

If we are positioned for success, what would failure look like??????????

Dump Davis!

[Gophack]

Davis was quick to spread the blame for California's troubles. There are 47 other states facing budget shortages, he said, and the federal government has watched a multibillion-dollar surplus disappear.

The slumping national economy "is hampering every state and the federal government," he told members of the California Manufacturers and Technology Association.

Basically, there is collectively a $40 billion shortage across the country ... that means that California's shortage is more than all other 49 states combined.

Hmmmmm.

Dump Davis!

[Euro-American Scum]

Davis, faced with reports California may have a $22 billion state budget shortage, said he is planning a new "worst-case scenario."

Which typifies Davis' entire administration. The whole thing has been a new worst-case scenario.

"Gov. Gray Davis said yesterday that he intends to solve the money woes without raising taxes."

Did he say read my lips?

[Capitalist Eric]

Sen. Don Perata, D-Oakland, said the size of the budget deficit makes it almost impossible to know how to deal with it. "I don't see any way around a tax increase,"

What a buffoon. As with all politicians that lean left, he's ignorant of the Laffer curve...

But then again, it's axiomatic that, to be a democrat, part of the qualifications to have a "D" after your name... is blatant ignorance of reality...

FReegards,

"Gov. Gray Davis intends to solve the money woes without raising taxes."

Before or after he gets re-elected?

[Grampa Dave]

Apparently one of his cuts is with the Veterans Homes/Hospitals in Kali. The local one in Yountville is apparently facing tremendous cut. The patients are old and disabled and often seriously ill Californian Veterans. The last place budget cuts should come.

We need to set up a truth squad of planned tax cuts like the California Veterans Homes where they should be the last ones cut.

The good news is a lot of the tax supported Nanny organizations who hate conservatives and pretend to be nice non profits are losing funding like crazy all over the state. Many are closing their doors and more to come. The whining by these rats about to lose their paychecks from our taxes is sounding better every day! These are the rats who protest our 2 second amendment and anything that is conservative in Sacramento and DC!

ABORT DAVIS TO SAVE CALIFORNIA!

[Kozak]

The $100 billion state budget Davis proposed in January called for the state to spend $12.5 billion more than its revenues. Legislative Analyst Elizabeth Hill said in February that the shortfall would be at least $17.5 billion. Legislative sources now say that weak income tax receipts could push that number to $22 billion, worst in state history.

How in hell does California spend $122 Billion? What can they possibly be getting for that amount of government spending?

[Frohickey]

Sen. Don Perata, D-Oakland, said the size of the budget deficit makes it almost impossible to know how to deal with it. "I don't see any way around a tax increase," he said at a meeting of the Sacramento Press Club.

Is this the Sen. Don Perata, the holder of one in 5 CCW licenses in Oakland with the good cause being he's in fear of his life because of his anti-gun stance?

I know, why don't you propose a $5 per bullet tax increase? Apply this to the police too.

[TheDon]

Facing the worst budget deficit in the state's history, Gov. Gray Davis said yesterday that he intends to solve the money woes without raising taxes.

A definite setup for a tax increase. I can't wait for the "I worked harder on this problem than any other problem in my life, but there is no other solution except to raise taxes." speech.
