Tax-and-Spend Role Reversal: Democratic governors discover the benefits of tax cuts.

A looming worry this year is how much economic damage will be done by state tax increases, perhaps enough to offset the stimulus in President Bush's tax cuts. The news is that some of the worst offenders are Republican Governors, while many Democrats, especially newly elected ones, are holding the line.

The new RAT gov of Tennessee is calling for NO NEW taxes, and 7.5% department cuts AND possibly laying of 2,900 state workers. The papers are supporting him...STRANGE they wouldn't support those wanting only a 5% cut over the past 4 years. Instead they supported an INCOME TAX to fix the SPENDING crisis. Budget increased 51% under former RINO don spendquist...er is it Taxquist, either is right.

This is the reason I'm not supporting Ohio's Republican Party until they reign in Taft, or his term expires. Taft the Turd is the economic enemy of all working people. Both rich and poor.
