But no! This can't be! The liberal Democrats who plundered this money out of the tobacco companies PROMISED! It was for the children! All of this money would be spent on programs to discourage teen smoking!

I'm CRUSHED!

I'm Shocked!

I can't believe that they'd actually LIE to us!!!

< /sarcasm >

What a bunch of jerks!

And of course it's not enough money to satisfy them. I wonder what will be made a "sin" next, to justify another tax base.

Washington State has already sold off their "windfall" for $0.25 on the dollar to plug a 2 billion defict in the budget. When the legislature goes back next month they have to find another 3 billion to get the state checkbook out of the red column. If you remember, our Attorney General Christine Gregoire, (RAT), was the lead plaintiff in this theft. Word has it she'll run for governor in 2004. Sad fact, she'll have a good chance.
