RSS icon Comments on Rossi's Budget: $5 billion in the red

1

Why am I not surprised that a Red Bushie CEO comrade of GWB's would propose a MASSIVE BUDGET DEFICIT?

See, it's not just the incompetence, it's the fact they don't get that being so incompetent is a big deal.

But it's different. For one thing, Rossi's a man. And he's a Republican, so it just doesn't count.

I am really sick of club for growth type republican's "starve the beast" tactics, because it is actual people who end up starving

Except for the ultra-rich - they get fat paychecks while the companies make out like bandits and the middle class goes down the tubes ...

Rossi sure knows which side of the toast is buttered - cause he jacked our butter.

Isn't $5B 100% larger than 2.5B, not 50% larger?

Either way, Rossi's a total douchewad.

Anti-choice, anti-growth Dino Rossi should continue to be exposed for the shell of a man that he is. Every time he says, "I'm not running on that issue", you should slip the governor another few bucks.

The thing that worries me is that there's just enough idiots out there who think he was "robbed" that he may win the election.

Angry male doofuses, looking for someone to blame for their personal failings, and bitches who hate other women, mostly.

Well, nobody expected Rossi to win the first time he raced Laguna Seca either. His second or third budget will start to work for him. It's all about learning the track and getting your bike set up.

Joe Zarelli? Do you mean the Joe Zarelli from Clark County who lied about being stopped by the State Patrol for cocaine possession? The Joe Zarelli who lied about his marital status to illegally collect additional pay from the military? The Joe Zarelli, WA State Legislator, who stole $12,400 from the State by collecting unemployment benefits while he was a full time State Senator? That Joe Zarelli came out of the same Clark County republican clown clark as Richard Clark, the cross dressing john, Jim Dunn, the harasser, and Cliff Pluard, the convicted baby raper. Don't think the Dems will be quaking at any threats he makes.

I just had a high school kid call, tell me he's a volunteer, and ask if I'd be willing to vote for Rossi. I said no.

Democrats: tax and spend.
Republicans: cut taxes and spend.

Everyone loves spending.

Does anyone say anything on this blog that the major media outlets haven't told them to think?
