We've had the last 3 years of a carpetbaggin' Connecticut Yankee that lied and said "I will not raise taxes" and who proposed his first tax increase (of the four he proposed) just month after coming in to office.
He lied and pushed it for long enough and lied about the actual budget numbers long enough that the RINOs in the Senate and a few traitors in the House gave him what he wanted.
He signed the budget bill for the tax increase after he knew that we would have a surplus. And there's no talk of anything coming back to the people.
Local news about a shooting in Gig Harbor - something about defending a display? I only read the headline - it was muted and I couldn't catch it in time.
