I watched her litany on the cuts that they were considering a week or so ago. I think the legislative definition of "protected" funding needs to be revisited. The state's entitlement programs have become bloated and need to be brought back to some kind of fiscal reality. If cuts are to be made - then cut across all programs.

So, after "they" fix the budget shortfall, then "they" will repeal the tax increase to return us to previous levels? NOT BLOODY LIKELY! Start cancelling programs...eliminating waste...shut out redundancy...NO BONUSES, PAY INCREASES FOR STATE EMPLOYESS...START WITH THE GOVERNOR AND GO DOWN THE LIST UNTIL THE BUDGET IS BALANCED!!!!!!!!!

It will make the unions happy. It will make the liberals on the west side of the mountains happy. The only ones not happy are the ones paying the higher taxes. Now it the time to band together and make a permanent change in Olympia.

WA Senate Republicans "Among the important by-products of this election is that it will encourage many impressive and capable Republicans from around the country to become candidates. They now believe, with justification, that 2010 looks to be a very good year for the GOP. If an individual ever wanted to toss his hat into the ring, this is the time to do it."
