Getting the federal government involved in a state's budget cuts is what happens when the state takes federal monies for a pie-in-the-sky program that was doomed to fail before it got started.
The people of Tennessee might now have federal judges setting the budget requirements of the state over the objections of the duly elected governor.
The odd thing is the governor is a Democrat.
But he's ticking a lot of the left off.
Personally I think it's good he can recognize a train wreck when he sees one.
