Liberals love to play the Class Warfare Card. This is one that will flop big time for people understand full well that when taxes are raised on the wealthy, its simply a matter of time before their wallets are picked next. We're spending gazillions on schools and they need more money?? Puhleeaze, what they need is better performance and stricter accountability for what goes on in the classroom.

Since the initiative requires no accountability for how the K-12 windfall is spent - This phrase jumped out at me immediately............Meathead needs to be held accountable for all the money eh's been controlling supposedly for education that came from the huge cigarette taxes years ago before he starts looking for more unaccountable monies.
