Ok that makes sense - sorry to be so dense. the Millage thing always threw me because we just have it listed as dollars and cents in Texas. We do have percentage limits that taxes can be raised in any year but even with that we had a school district raise taxes well over the limit and we did a recall election to reign them in. Lord they whined like 4 year olds but as with most liberal rants, their predictions of hungry students roaming the streets naked, unable to read didn’t come true.

Yes, there is a limit here on tax increases as well, but a judge can approve higher raises for certain causes.

“School district raise taxes well over the limit”

The school district out here did that a few years ago and were smacked down-and it needs to happen again because they don’t understand “NO-property values are down, and so do taxes need to be.” They don’t learn...

I was looking at your pictures of Mesdames McCain and Ginrich-McCain’s hair is the same icy color, but it is not glued in place like Callista’s-her hair/helmet reminds me of that old punk song by the Skunks-the spray you wear makes your hair look frozen-I seem to remember that most of the rest of that song is rated “R”, and so not to be reprinted here...
