Gov Barbour did refuse a portion of the ‘stimulus’. The dems in the state legislature voted to take it without his approval.

And I bet they've long since greedily sucked up other federal grant monies, dancing to the feds' tune in the process.

Until they reject ALL federal grant monies, it's a sham rejection. They're still addicted. IMHO.

Exactly where do think ‘federal money’ comes from? The sham is over taxation and using OUR money to force the states to dance to the federal tune.

I agree this has to change. The first step is get INVOLVED rather than sniping from a keyboard.
