Why can't they point with pride to Michigan, which has a six-year head start on them? We're taxing ourselves into a depression, and will probably amend the state constitution to cut back on judges and state reps, 99% of them being GOP. The wonders of a RAT monopoly.
A few more years of this, and Michigan will be like North Korea without the nukes. And it will still be Bush's fault.
Yeah well, but at least you guys have had that type of representation for a long time. It’s rapidly erroding into Virginia.
Somehow even though the state budget has gone from $17 billion to $34 billion in the last seven years (Mark Warner, Tim Kaine), they can’t seem to find 3% of that to address the transportation needs. They ~need~ to raise taxes.
In a rare showing of spine, the GOP House stopped them and presented an actual workable plan that didn’t raise taxes. But the ‘rats voted it down. An actual win for us, but the media doesn’t portray it that way.
