"They don't have a clear understanding of what the issues here are," said Dan Hopkins, a spokesman for Owens. "They are calling this a tax increase. It clearly is not."
Yet the governor is having a tough time selling that message to voters so far. In a recent Denver Post poll, only 43% of them supported his proposal.
Gov. Bill Owens says repealing TABOR is NOT a tax increase. What would one call a move to allow the government to spend like a drunken sailor? Most Colorado voters know junking spending limits would lead the state sooner or later to a California style fiscal meltdown. Yeah, the Governor and his RINO business pals and the Democrats who run the State Legislature can put lipstick on the pig - and its still a pig. Unlike his spokesman, people DO understand what a repeal of TABOR would mean - a higher tax burden. We are told the government is being starved. We're never told of the fact government at all levels today, takes more than half of one's income. Enough is enough. Government is too big for its britches. It needs to be starved more.
