I think if you will research voting records on past budgets, you will find that those senators you speak so highly of were “pork” fans themselves. I’d analyze the entire situation before putting them up on a pedestal.

While trying to save the image I noticed the title of the .gif is ga pork small.

Is there a larger version? One that could, perhaps be my desktop background?

The House has voted to limit Peachcare enrollment to those most in need and to stop class size reductions in high school.

These are both tangible and large budget savings and not abstractions. Let’s see if the Senate passes both of these bills. If the Senate does not, then the true fiscal conservatives are in the House.

Harry, thanks for that link. I remember when I was working on a state House campaign, that one of my jobs was to go through the state budget and highlight “frivilous” expenditures by the House and Senate. Of course, this was back in the day when Democrats ruled, and my candidate was a Republican. Sadly, though, I could do the same exercise five years later – with the Republicans in charge of the Senate and the House – and still find those “frivilous” things. It’s disheartening.

Unfortunately, as long as idiots like Richardson, Keen, Harbin, and Erhart are running things in the house, nothing fiscally responsible will EVER come out of the assembly…

In order to be competitive with TN, FL, AL, and undercut SC and NC, Georgia should drop its state and local tax burden by 10%. The Tax Foundation map

I’m glad to see someone is keeping fiscal responsibility alive at the Capitol.

Why don’t the three stooges care about saving the taxpayers money?

I like that picture of Earl Erhart. Except, you made him a little to slim…
