November 18, 2011 at 3:32 pm in Worthington Daily Globe
ST. PAUL Democrats make it clear they blame Republicans for rising property taxes, and will do that even louder in next year’s campaigns.
They hope the charge sticks this time. Continue Reading

There is no one else to blame but the Republicans for higher property taxes, no matter how you spin it.
Hot debate. What do you think?

Actually the fault lies with the leaders that are responsible for moving all of our gainful jobs overseas and the leaders that decided we needed to import cheap labor! And worst of all our leaders that were too dumb to see it coming! Any way you spin that…Who are they?

Who pushes for lower wages? Answer: Republicans
Who pushes for less government regulation on corps? Answer: Republicans
Who strong arms budget cuts that increase local taxes to pay for basic services? Answer: Republicans
The state government shut down over the state budget. The pubs have control of the House and people and the government were losing income during the shut down and the Dems and Dayton were left with little options other than agreeing to the Pubs budget to end the suffering.
Who did the Republicans protect? Certainly not 99 percent of Minnesotans.
Certainly not yours, Deano. I’m 99% sure of it.

You spun that up pretty good, although a lot of it could be said of the Dems, too. I am equally afraid of both parties.
I have voted far more dim Dems than repubs in my life, but things have changed a lot in the last couple of decades. The Dem party is no longer your father’s party. They are no longer the peoples party, wait, maybe they are but they are the divided peoples party and I am a firm believer in the Divided We Fall thing. They have also done nothing to protect me or mine! So as much as possible I’ll try to vote for people rather than parties. Right now Obama and the far left scare me more then the repubs and their big business. Scary, Scary, scary!
