Bravo Sierra https://norunnyeggs.com/2008/05/69-million-in-spending-cuts-bravo-sierra/ The repository of one hard-boiled egg from the south suburbs of Milwaukee, Wisconsin (and the occassional guest-blogger). The ramblings within may or may not offend, shock and awe you, but they are what I (or my guest-bloggers) think.

They are talking about budget cuts, not taxes or budget gimmicks. Yes, when you have a true conservative running the state, you get budget cuts, not budget tricks.

Question; which budget cycle was that? If it was after the 2004-2005 one (which featured a 29.9% increase in taxes over 2003), I’ll hoist it up as an example that sometimes old pols do learn new tricks.

The governor told everyone he was cutting most everybody’s budget by 5% and then another 3%. The state is still standing and virtually no one complained, and if they did, they shut up pretty quickly. No new spending, no raising of taxes.
That is the difference between conservatives in Nevada and liberals and RINO’s in Wisconsin.
