[history]
As Republicans attempt to oust Democratic Gov. Gray Davis, their effort is fueled by the charge that he and the Democratic-controlled Legislature spent a surge of tax revenue late last decade too freely and for too long.
Lawmakers are haggling over a state budget that is 13 days overdue, and recall backers point to irresponsible spending as a key reason for California's staggering shortfall and their conviction that Davis should be tossed out of office.

| How about the new highway named for Clinton in his home stste of Arkansas? It's a little crooked, and has a long yellow streak down the center. Be careful if you drive on it, it's a little slick. Manufacturers announced today that they will be stocking America's shelves this week with "Clinton Soup, to honor one of the nation's most distingushed men". It consists primariy of a weenie in hot water. |

I don't believe the cuts Peace talks about are real cuts. They are what democrats call cuts, you know....
Peace projected that he would spend 9% more next year than this year, but he is ONLY going to spend 4% more. This means he has cut his budjet 5%, right?
So instead of claiming a 4% increase in spending Dems call it a 5% cut. Aren't they clever(deceitful)?
