Shut your piehole, Fraudoire. You're not even the real governor!

How the h#ll is this woman still in the Governor's Mansion?

Isn't this election still be sorted out by virtue of the massive provable fraud?

Where to begin???

Let's start with healthcare - Gregoire was single handedly responsible for destroying the states low insurance rates with over regulation that she recommended.

Gregoire was heavily involved in the tobacco suit and won a lot of money for the state that was supposed to help with healtcare costs, but we have yet to see results.

As far as homeland security is concerned, there was a lot of money allocated for port security on the western Wa coast, but Seattle was hogging most of it and the funding was cancelled for redistribution.

You know, before all this started, I didn't hate Christine Gregoire. I didn't vote for her and I campaigned for her opponent, but I didn't have an especially negative opinion of her, because I had a friend in law enforcement who thought highly of her.

Now I can't stand the sight of her.

And now I find she's making it worse.

Health care costs are strangling states like Washington, she said, adding: "This is not the time for the administration to abandon its responsibility to address the health care crisis facing our nation.

WASHINGTON IS A SOCIALIST STATE, WE CAN'T EVEN PURCHASE HEALTHCARE THROUGH THE OPEN MARKET....WE ARE REQUIRED TO GO THROUGH WA STATE AND SHOW ALL OUR OF INCOME AND ASSETS. THEY THEN DETERMINE WHAT ARE RATE SHOULD BE PAYING. WE ARE NOT ALLOWED TO COMPARISION SHOW....."FREE" HEALTHCARE FOR THE TEEN MOTHERS AND OTHERS THAT HAVE NEVER PAID ONE RED CENT IN TAXES TO THIS STATE IS THE REASON WE ARE BEING STRANGLED!

OK, it is a "goal". I thought you worded it like it was already decided.

Unlike you, I have known her for 20+ years.

She is one mean-spirited, vindictive, conniving witch.

I will say it again - when it comes to GreGorevych, you ain't seen NOTHIN yet!

If this woman retains her position as governor, she should take a lesson from the great former governor of Georgia, Zell Miller. He was able to bring a lot of money into his state by attracting overseas businesses (no high B&O taxes like Washington State). He saved Georgia's public education system by slashing 1500 state government positions, no doubt redundant and unnecessary ones. I could go on and on, as Zell would say. Suffice it to say that this Dem governor will do nothing to save our state from going bust except to raise taxes. She will continue to blame the president for our woes, however, rather than years of democratic governors and their tax and spend mentality.

Stoat, bring some of us up-to-date. Is the revote a possibility? What are the chances of it taking place? Best wishes to all of you making the effort out there.

The ReVote is definitely a possibility, and we are moving forward with it.  It's in the courts now and of course the Dems are doing their usual delaying tactics because they know that we have a very strong and solid case.

I don't know how much detail you want, as there's quite a bit in this mess we have here.  If you're looking for lots of specifics, probably the best places to check would be among these sites:

I'm now seeing that once again our friend Backhoe has been keeping on top of this issue in fine fashion, and has kindly provided us with  a one-stop information site here at FR:

Rossi v. Gregoire How Elections Are Stolen

I hope that these links will be of some help in answering your questions.  Please let me know if you need more clarity on a specific item and I will do my best to help, although I confess that there are other Washington Freepers who are much more up to speed on this than myself......I'm mainly a passionate cheerleader (the male kind)   :-)

Thank you for your kind words, and I am confident that we will prevail.

Bush will certainly short change Washington state, AND SHOULD!

PS. I live here.

Perhaps you can explain to myself and others what your long, boring diatribe about the contributions of the Hollywood community to tsunami victims has to do within a discussion about shortchanging the states. Your unimpressive long read really, at least to me, is not on topic and frankly is defunct of any meaningful message.

Next time, and I hope there is not one, just start your own thread. This way I can skip it entirely.

Thank you.

Why would anyone listen to what Gov. Daley has to say?

Given the way she shortchanged vote integrity and the GOP voters in WASH,

it's understandable that she considers herself an expert on short-changing people.

Watch your pocketbooks and pubescent teens, Washington. There's probably little safe from such liberal idiots.
