WA State Democrats budget has no clothes

May 3, 2017, 10:24 PM

The Democrats in Olympia have absolutely revealed themselves. And it’s impossible to defend them. No rational human being can defend their actions in Olympia.

The Democrats submitted a bloated mess of a spending bill that they knew would never go through so that they could say the evil Republicans shot their spending bill down.

The Dems called what Rossi presented a waste of time and a stunt. But it was their budget!

The Democrats look naked, the clothes have been burned off of them.
