Where is Joe Izuzu, when you need him?
After reading this article in the Seattle PI, this was the first thought to come to mind. After all what
was I-601 about? To me, it was about the fact that we can not trust those in state government.
So along comes Sen. Regala and Sen Prentice, who trying to tell you and me to just "Trust us".
Or at least trust the same democrats, that got us and this state, into the current mess.
And we promise not to pick your pocket.
Lady's, NOT during this lifetime.

Just look at the quotes:

Sen. Debbie Regala, D-Tacoma, said "601 was not intended to shut down government or make
it impossible to provide essential services.
"The intention was to ensure that you were prudent," she told fellow senators Tuesday.
"Some people are going to say we're just making it easier to raise taxes. It's never easy to raise taxes."

"The needs are so great, greater than any I've ever experienced here. There's simply no way
we can absorb the kinds of cuts that would be dictated," said Senate Budget Chairwoman
Margarita Prentice, D-Renton.
Prentice called the initiative a "fiscal straitjacket." But she said Regala's bill wouldn't be a blank
check for Democrats to randomly raise taxes.

We have reached gender parity in at least one area. Don't trust these female Used Car Salesman.
