Washington State that is controlled by urban corridor liberals managed to elect a governor who was a do noting member of congress and has the support of the environmental lobby. He took over from Chris Gregoire who believed, as Barack Obama does, that legislative processes are an inconvenience.

He is as insulated as Obama in that our legislature tips his way and the idea of veto powers rescinding his order is a non-starter.

Six years ago this state raised it gas tax in what was sold as a budget cure for deferred maintenance resulting from political budget games that sucked the coffers dry.

If this XO stands the revenue would be huge and the chances of monitoring how it is spent would be minimal.

IMO, any governor that shakes things up like this by EO, should be impeached.

Let the process work. By doing this, he is subverting the charter of the state government.

EOs are supposed to be house-keeping and emergency related.

This is just chicken—— ruthless behavior.

Now we know why CONOCOPHILLIPS sold the Ferndale refinery to PETROGAS.
