Sacramento Democrats: Want Taxes and No Cuts!

Today, I learned something called “May Revise”…(Dexter Morgan is always learning something new) California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger announced the budget revision for the spending plan for the next year (2010-11) to close a $19.1 billion deficit.

Ohhh, this month is May…Revise.  I get it!

Governor wants to eliminate the state’s welfare program starting in October.  Hey, not a bad idea.

Governor did not propose any new tax hikes.  Sounds good to me.

The Democrats are saying “Not so fast, Arnold!”

Senator Darrell Steinberg (D-Sacramento), Senate President, says, “We will not pass a budget that eliminates Cal-WORKS. Outright. We will not be party to devastating children and families. Period. It’s not why we came here, it’s not what we believe in. … We need revenue, and we will fight for revenue.”

Revenue = Taxes.  This Steinberg guy will devastate children and families with less take home pay!

Then, Senator Denise Moreno-Ducheny (D-San Diego) says, “This is just a sad budget day”

Geez, I was told this lady has been in the legislature for 14 years and hasn’t produced a state budget on time!

Watch this clip of a Press Conference by Steinberg and Moreno-Ducheny.

(Yeah, it is 29 minutes long, but you will want to get a shot of whisky or two after listening to those two nuts!)
