"There is no question this is a U-turn from the fiscal conservative playbook," said Terry Connelly, dean of the Ageno School of Business at Golden Gate University in San Francisco.Connelly is a pinhead.
The Bush Administration has already proven that fiscal irresponsibilty is the path to global prosperity.
To accelerate that plan, I think we need two Constitutional Amendments:
- Eliminate and ban all forms of taxation.
Who needs taxes when all we have to do is BORROW money??? - Eliminate the Presidential veto.
It's antiquated and never gets used anyway.
Just let Congress spend whatever they want and we'll be prosperous forever.

Arnold Schwarzenegger has outlined short- and long-term spending increases that have some wondering if he has turned his back on his roots as a fiscal conservative. ROFL
Sounds like Gledhill has been in the Kool Aid line.
Lincoln addressed this phenomena: fool some of the people some of the time. There will always be some Democrats who think the Austrian is conservative.

Arnold has lost my vote, just roll over and do not stand up for PRINCIPLES. All the propositions were conservative PRINCIPLES, and he has let us down for his own ego.

Some say governor is straying from fiscal conservatism
that was the subheading?
LOLOLOL
He has little to show he was ever intending that from his first 2 state budgets that he proposed or his 15B borrowing via bond right off the gitgo in his first year, imo.

Mike Genest, Schwarzenegger's department of finance director, said it is important to note that state revenues go up substantially over the life of the proposal. "The long range estimate of revenues shows that they triple in the 20-year period," he said. He also said the governor is not retreating on his promise to "tear up the credit card." "This is more like a mortgage on a house," he said. We've come full circle from the recall. Gray Davis committed dotcom revenue that he didn't have and got the state into the deficit mess it still is. Now this administration wants to spend revenue growth anticipated over the next 20 years on debt financing. With all of that growth, why borrow at all given that borrowing doubles the cost of the investment? Prioritize the infrastructure projects and pay for them out of normal revenues as they become available.

Yep. Conservatives on here may clamor for smaller government but the majority of Californians don't want it. I have yet to hear of a single person out of this forum, who thinks we have too much government in California.
