RATS bloat it, RATS cut it. Should look good on some billboards.

Gregoire can raise taxes. How in the world is Wall Street stopping her?

[glorgau]

“balanced approach” = more taxes.

[Libloather]

Gregoire can raise taxes.

And doesn't have a whole to lose doing it.

Washington Governor Gregoire will not run for reelection

Good for nothing, chickensh!t, blameless, freeloading liberal, ugly, snaggletoothed old hag!

Now i see why they increased our sales tax last year.

We needed more money for our beloved illegals.

argh...

[mowowie]

whoops, wrong thread.

[Grunthor]

How about they just require proof of citizenship before giving away taxpayer dollars to illegals. We are literally nextg door neighbors to freaking CANADA but the town I grew up in resemble a seedy back alley of Mexcio City. You drive by the welfare office and it looks like a border crossing in Texas or Califoria. Hardly a white face in the crowd.

And every one of the women with at least two kids under 4 y/o in tow.

[WinOne4TheGipper]

Has anything actually been cut?

[goldstategop]

Government has grown plenty during a recession. And for liberal interest groups, its still not big enough yet!

[SkyDancer]

You’re too kind.

Out on the Olympic Peninsula we have a county commissioner who brought his patty cake philosophy here from Berkeley. He says the same thing in speech after speech: "We are suffering an economic crisis that is not our fault. It is happening everywhere, even Europe".

Then he votes to down zone commercial zoning, deny business start ups, take private land for parks, halt timber harvests, limit water use and restrict building permits.

Damn if I know!

As a very important source of strength and security, cherish public credit. One method of preserving it is to use it as sparingly as possible: avoiding occasions of expence by cultivating peace, but remembering also that timely disbursements to prepare for danger frequently prevent much greater disbursements to repel it; avoiding likewise the accumulation of debt, not only by shunning occasions of expence, but by vigorous exertions in time of Peace to discharge the Debts which unavoidable wars may have occasioned, not ungenerously throwing upon posterity the burthen which we ourselves ought to bear.

Washington State recently changed the misdemeanor statues, cutting the maximum penalty from 365 to 364 days. Why? So it will be less likely for illegal aliens to get deported. The courts cater to the illegal alien criminals flooding our system. We can’t stop the flood of Mexicans coming here at the source, so its time to target employers. Massive fines and jail time for anyone hiring a non-citizen. The Border Patrol is completely ineffective, so we have to stop the flow somewhere else. In a few more years, English speakers will be the minority in freaking Washington State! They are destroying our culture.
