Because for one, Tom McClintock is talking now and he is a genuine statesman who should have been born in a different century

I'm informed that there are no reductions in spending, in fact there is a small increase & the work which these civil servants are suppose to perform is put off until next year. I want a recall of all of them if this is true. Once again nobody can or will cut spending.

This budget is a con job on the voters. It saddens me the GOP is a part of this charade.

Even the ones who opposed it?????

BTW: They are not civil servants, they are elected officials. Big difference....for one, elected officials are much easier to get rid of than civil servants.

Only five GOP Senators voted for it. Ten did not. Careful not to tar the good ones when you use a broad brush like that.

Sorry. I was hoping the leadership would hold out for a real and not a phony budget that pretends no painful choices have to be made to turn our state's dire condition around. That's what disappointed me.
