Senate Republicans Continue To Stall A Budget Fix

Submitted by David Potts on Wed, 12/09/2009 - 1:46pm.

Senate Republicans have called off all meetings this week regarding a much delayed budget fix, delaying any chance of a fix for at least another week.

They’ve basically tried to turn this into a giant game of chicken, with a budget needing to be passed before the end of the year or else delaying the income tax cut is off the tale. This would basically sink the entire state of Ohio, and let them blame Governor Strickland for it during next years elections.

Sad Strategy

ytownboy3 credits BSB with acturately depicting Senate Repubs engaging in a game of chicken with the state budget crisis. They are inept. They are incompetent. They don't care either. If they can only provide five votes to approve the budget, then they do not get to call their shots. How moronic!! Oh where is Vern Riffe when we need him? He would fix their clocks alright. Truth is they would rather not see a fix adopted. They are all in safe districts any how so why should they care..........stick to your guns Senate Ds............time for the Big D to stop pushing their own pet projects that should be dealt with in separate legislation. Time for the Big D to start knocking heads....
