You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion. Comments that play into the tribalism that has consumed this nation will be declined. So will comments alleging voter fraud unless backed up by concrete evidence. If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics. My decisions on these matters are made on a case by case basis, and may be affected by my mood that day, my access to the blog at the time the comment was made or other information that isn’t readily apparent.
Frack baby frack.

How the hell is a $350 million shortfall to be celebrated? To the 310 PM wacko: opposing a budget with a $350 million shortfall is wise.
ReplyDeleteColor me stupid but if revenues are up and debt is going down, it seems like good news.
ReplyDeleteDear fake Bob Freeman,
ReplyDeleteThank God for Bob Freeman..he doesnt support the idea of cutting hundreds of millions of dollars in corporate tax breaks while trashing public education ansd human service budgets like the pathetic Republican governor.
