Once again the spectacle of an obstinate minority ruining the state financially in the name of fiscal responsibility. A doublethink worthy of Orwell himself. The downgrading of California's bond rating alone will cause far more damage than any Republican savings could hope to achieve. Permalinkmahalo guy at 12:11 2009-02-17 said:
Your post makes no sense. I don't care how much the downgrade costs. Someone has to show fiscal responsibility. S/he has real balls to dig in. You make it seem like it's not the majority's fault. Nice try. I hope you don't really believe what you wrote.Once again the spectacle of an obstinate minority ruining the state financially in the name of fiscal responsibility.
