some one has the audacity to let the emperor know he has no clothes?
what a great story!
yeah but they’ll continue to vote for him.
Jersey hasn’t seen the half of it yet.
There’s no limit to how much a Democrat will tax you to “do good” for you.
I’m voting for Hillary not because of McCain but because I want Corzine to join her administration and leave New Jersey!
A Democrat can be seen live on TV sexually abusing 3 year-olds and new Jerseyans will vote for... a Democrat replacement over a Republican’t. George W. Bush can cure cancer, and he would only get 43% tops in this state.
Same thing was promised here in New York State with the thruway. The tolls just went up again and are slated for more increases since Spitzer took office.
This story could be true for a lot of governors and their constituents. Special interests, big money, and mass media have separated the common everyday rank in file voter from his party and from the candidates. Proximire won his last Senate term without raising any money, what a concept, candidate trust voters and voters trust candidate. No need to buy media, then poll, market, and spin who you are and what you stand for.
The folks deserve him, they supported his lousy butt and his cronies in the DemocRAT party.
Quite seriously, as the level of public behavior and political discourse degrade further and further into the abyss, politician may start fearing for their lives. The aggression that many people have become more and more comfortable showing after generations of breeding and fostering sociopaths in our educational system is slowly yielding a very harsh payback towards those who enabled the decline.
I won't shed a tear when the riots start.
don corzilino....making an offer to the NJ taxpayers...they CAN refuse!!!!!!!
What I dislike the most are liberal democrats who are or were corporate executives.
Corzine was a kid in Taylorville, Ill., back then, so he had no answer for the old gent. He's got no answers for anyone who doesn't share the assumptions that got us into this mess in the first place.
Go Jersey.
“Gee, looks like the peasants don’t like Corzine’s turnpike plan. Back to the drawing boards. Maybe he could cut some spending?”
Jersey, aside from needing every politician to be imprisoned can do something very simple.
Tell every state employee that starting tomorrow, all the sick time and vacation time the accumulated for retirement is gone. They will now be on a use it or lose it policy.
Call it pay as you go.
One of New Jersey's biggest problems is that its financial chaos come thoroughly ingrained in the state's character -- not by the state's political class (though they have certainly been a major contributor), but by the people themselves.
One statistic I read recently indicated that one out of every seven workers in the state of New Jersey is employed by various levels government. If that's the case, then I don't think it would be unreasonable to assume that 80% of the state's residents have a close family member (spouse, parent, sibling or child) who profits immensely from this institutionalized financial dysfunction.
THAT is why New Jersey will likely be the first state in the U.S. to become completely insolvent.
