declaring a fiscal emergency is merely a tactic in order to gain enough public support to raise taxes on the people.

cutting spending never occurs to these folk.

Good job, Arnold. /sarc

Good thing John Laird did such a good job. Imagine how bad it could have been. Its also great to know that he landed another 130K state job.

Let's see, Arnold Schwartzkennedy got elected by damning Davis over his handling of the Kaliforniastan economy. Now he has run it into the ground, kind of like Bush, he could not control his lust to spend, spend, spend on illegals and liberal agendas. So, Arnold, who in my opinion is the poster boy for the current RINO Republicans, is beloved by the Marxists, because he is one of them in heart, mind and soul.

Ok, Arnold, here's what you do. You hold a press conference tomorrow morning and announce that every state budget now has X-percent (fill in your own amount) less funds than it did yesterday. You then state: “This measure is necessary to assure the ongoing state services. Any department head who cannot continue to provide services of equal quantity and quality during the next six months will be replaced by someone who can. Thank you for your attention...have a nice day.”

[Yo-Yo]

Just sell more bonds, Arnie, “for the peoples.”

I bet Californians wish they had voted in McClintock back in 2003, now.

(Lets Get) Fis-i-cal
With apologies to Olivia Newton John

I’m saying all the things that I know you’ll like,
Makin’ good conversation
I gotta handle you just right,
You know what I mean
I took you to an intimate restaurant,
Then to a suggestive movie
There’s nothin’ left to talk about,
Unless it’s horizontally

Let’s get fis-i-cal, fis-i-cal,
I wanna get fis-i-cal, let’s get into fis-i-cal
Let me hear your body talk,
Your body talk, let me hear your body talk

I’ve been patient, I’ve been good,
Tried to keep my hands on the table
It’s gettin’ hard this holdin’ back,
You know what I mean
I’m sure you’ll understand my point of view,
We know each other mentally
You gotta know that you’re bringin’ out
The animal in me

Let’s get animal, animal,
I wanna get animal, let’s get into animal
Let me hear your body talk,
Your body talk, let me hear your body talk

[DoughtyOne]

We need a recall that sees every elected official in our state government tossed out on their asses.

Malfeasance doesn’t begin to describe how incompetently these jerks have ruled.

[rstark56]

(in arhnold voice) GET OUT!

[goldstategop]

The Democrats don't care and neither do the unions that control their purse-strings. They will raise taxes to devastate the economy and buy more time to prolong the party. The last thing that will happen in California is an end to business as usual.

Wall Street Journal this morning had an editorial how Repubs need to embrace open-borders and illegal aliens. The WSJ is a crap paper now. Another WSJ article showed which states have a defecit. The biggest were CA, NY and now FL.

FL is never in that position! Crist is a RINO but my guess is it is Medicaid costs due to illegal aliens. The Fed mandates require the states to provide endless benefits for illegals. If these benefits ended - all of these states would have balanced budgets.

[onedoug]

Schwarzenegger declares....

That's about all he does.

[Vanbasten]

It sure makes his massive spending on stem cell research and so-called clean technology look ridiculous.

I’ve got a prediction! He won’t cut either of those programs.

[screaminsunshine]

Get to work??? Doing what? Devising more socialist pc programs and spending money? Better they go home and don’t work. That will save a lot.

[Sig Sauer P220]

Why anyone lives in Kalifornistan is beyond me. Sure, theres some beautiful scenery, but that’s not enough.
