"None of us like raising taxes," Schwarzenegger said. "(But) anyone who says you can solve this without raising taxes is hallucinating, is on drugs or has a math problem."

Looking forward to seeing all these props go down in flames. Vote to tax myself more and longer? Yeah, right. I can’t believe the Republicans caved for such a ridiculous so-called “compromise”.

"The cost of inaction is letting California go off the cliff. We still have all those contracts to honor and a federal receiver could come in, and no one wants that," said Assembly Minority Leader Mike Villines, R-Fresno.

Not that I think the feds can do a better job, but can receivership really be any worse than things are now? The best option would be for the state to go the way of Vallejo, CA, and declare bankruptcy, but under Chapter 9, I think only municipalities, counties, etc. can declare BK, not the state itself. Of course that's not going to happen. If CA does go into federal receivership would the receiver have the ability to break the union contracts and cut spending on state services to more reasonable levels?

Schwarzenegger said. "When you get down to it and people say we should legalize marijuana, allow oil drilling or sell San Quentin, it is a ridiculous notion."

You're going to equate drilling for oil with selling San Quentin and leaglizing marijuana? You dumb*ss!

Drilling for oil would pretty much make CA solvent again w/o raising taxes. But ohhh noooo, we have to make the "greenies" happy and bankrupt the state. What a maroon!

Oh yeah....me? I'm voting no on all of 'em!

WOODLAND HILLS - As he launched a radio ad campaign Tuesday for his budget measures on the May 19 ballot, Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger said failure to approve the package would worsen the state's already-dire fiscal crisis.

Cut the spending you RINO idiots.

Lumping oil drilling in with selling SanQentin and legalizing drugs? Yeah those oil revenues sure haven't done Alaska any good have they.
