GOVERNMENT IDIOT OF THE DAY

This has to be a joke. I mean, I know that the average voter out there is government educated, but there is no way that the people of California could be ignorant enough to vote this twit into office. Here is a quote from Santa Rosa Democrat Noreen Evans about "living within our means."

Well, there is this mantra out there - "live within our means" - and while that sounds really nice . . . and it sounds really responsible, it's meaningless. Our means are completely within our control . . . We have just given away huge corporate subsidies in February; we have given away other tax reductions over many, many years; we've created tax loopholes; in good times, we routinely give away taxes, and then in lean times we never replace those tax deductions or close those loopholes. . . . So "live within our means" doesn't mean anything. The fact is, we have a state with a population that have [sic] needs that we have a moral obligation to provide.

And you wonder why California is in such trouble? I really didn't need to tell you that this barking moonbat was a Democrat, did I?

What others are saying

  • Flashback!
    I'm not the first to say this but that last line could be straight out of Atlas Shrugged!! Jim Taggart? Phillip Reardon?
  • Whew!!
    All of my lawn chairs say that the material they are made of is known to cause cancer in the state of California...Now I have two reasons to be thankful that I don't live there!
  • Absolutely Redonkulous!!!
    Living within our means?! I think I have heard this before...you know, something along the lines of "means of production" and "each according to his ability, to each according to his needs." Oh thats right, I guess since we're in the business of stealing from the right and giving to the poor, building cars, running the banking industry, and taking over the health care system...we'll all be doing The Goose step before long.
  • twit Noreen Evans
    Attention Miss Evans: it is time to pull over & change the air in your head.
  • Noreen Evans Quote
    Except for the "have/has" thing - poor grammar no doubt, what's to argue with?
  • Typical demohack gibberish.
  • California Uber Alles
    The "Dead Kennedeys" were prophets, man.
  • Moonbat of the Day
    I'm sorry to say that I live in Santa Rosa. This county is so Liberal that it's going the way of the rest of CA. She and the rest of the city council vetoed Wal-Mart and Lowes from building new stores in town. Unemployment is high, and small businesses are closing. SR is only 50 miles from San Francisco, so what can I expect?
  • Idiot has a point
    She does have a point- we routinely give away taxes, create loopholes and never replace them- this is an EXCELLENT argument for the Fair Tax nationwide.

    In Michigan they proposed use and sales tax exemption for some of the businesses here in order to keep them because everyone wants to leave. Why target certain businesses when the Fair Tax makes everyone level?

    But everyone else has a great point too- just because times are good, it doesn't mean they should be giving away funds to idiotic causes.
  • LOL
    m's and a's!!!
  • Govt. Idiot of the Day
    I'm quite sorry to say that we Californians really are that stupid.

  • a few years ago...
    I went to Santa Rosa, CA for a job interview.
    I didn't get the job.
    And I thank God I did not get it.
    Georgia is not perfect, but it is much much better than the People's Republic of Kalifornistan.

    "living within your means" = spend less than what you earn
    Why is that so difficult to understand for some people?

    "Our means are completely within our control"
    -Noreen Evans
    She's being pretty honest here...everything that is produced by the citizens of CA is for the government to take, according to her.
  • And you wonder why Calif. prints IOU's???
    What a moron! A perfect poster-child for the corruptocrat dimocraps! ROTFL when I read "given away tax reductions"... OMG, Californians should be ashamed to vote morons like this into office.
  • picture says alot.
    there is a picture on drudge that says alot.

    check the expression on Putins face. what I get out of it is, "Crap, this guy is a jackass with clammy hands."
  • Loonie Legislators
    I think its time we all bellied up to the medical bar and applied for the newest surgury a WEASELECTOMY!

  • how they think
    My gawd!!! I just took a gander at this moron’s website, check out her E-newsletter and tell me she isn’t all about big government

    http://democrats.assembly.ca.gov/members/a07/E-Newsletters/default.aspx

    So many touchy feely remarks
  • Shame
    It's a shame she and Pelosi couldn't have been detained in Israel like Cynthia McKinnney was. America could use a break from these blowhards.
  • Her district...
    is full of guilt-ridden rich white folk from Santa Rosa and the Napa Valley. Maybe she has drinking a little too much vino lately.
  • NEED HELP
    Help me here people,WTF is up with California.Never before have I seen such complete stupidity.I can't take it any more,I for one, am done with California. I'm thinkin EARTHQUAKE. Please, someone on this blog from Cal step forward and help me understand what drives you people to elect these a$$ holes.

    Sidenote: butt neckid, stop man, your killin me. Help me figure these people out.
  • Liberal translation
    Well, there is this mantra out there - "live within our means" - and while that sounds really nice . . . and it sounds really responsible, it's meaningless. (Liberal translation: personal responsibility negates government dependency, which equals fewer votes for the democrats)

    Our means are completely within our control (Liberal translation: government control). . .

    We have just given away huge corporate subsidies in February; (Liberal translation: government was just giving back taxes that we should have never taken in the first place, so you can at least stay in business, and it looks as if government was saving you)

    we have given away other tax reductions over many, many years; we've created tax loopholes; in good times, we routinely give away taxes, (Liberal translation: this is our money, people are just fortunate to live in this country and should be happy just to keep what we let them have)

    and then in lean times we never replace those tax deductions or close those loopholes. . . . (Liberal translation: it’s government’s money, not yours)

    So "live within our means" doesn't mean anything. The fact is, we have a state with a population that have [sic] needs that we have a moral obligation to provide. (Liberal translation: the achievers and overachievers only became that way because they broke away from government education, government mindset, and had ambition to better themselves, and this was done on the backs of the underachievers, so the achievers must support the dumb masses that vote for dependency and the only party that care for the underachievers (not with our money, but yours), that party, the Democrats)
  • Santa Rosa Democrat Noreen Evans
    Typical blond!
  • Nancy Pelosi eyes.
    Noreen Evans has Nancy Pelosi eyes. You can just see in her eyes how much she cares about the people of CA, little animals, the environment, the poor, etc. Or, maybe it's an end result of all the dope she smokes.
  • How does she give away taxes never collected...
    ...unless she thinks your money is hers to begin with?

    I'm supposed to believe she is moral and generous for letting me keep some of my money. She forgets her "moral obligation" to build the powerplants her state's population needs.
  • Caltwit
    This moron is stupid enough to qualify for appointment to the position of King Barry's "stupidity czar", or maybe even Jose Biden's personal economic advisor for stimulus administration oversight.

    Why not just bury the whole state along with Jacko?
  • Silver Lining!
    If we are going to end up paying to bail these morons out, shouldn't we all get timeshare credits???? I want the third week in April in San Luis Obispo.
  • government Idiot of the Day
    She sounds just like the idiots who attended the Rearden Party in Atlas Shrugged
  • resemblance
    She has the Katie Couric/Cocker Spaniel look about her...apparently just as dumb, too.
  • finding a parking spot................................
    I'm not sure how people can live within their means......in fact I'm not sure what a "means" is.......

    along time ago me,ma, pa, lil sister, big sister and three cuzins lived in a '59 Henway 4door sedan. so I know it can be done but parkin' can be a bitch some times.....
  • She Regrets "Giving Away" Her Tax Reductions
    "We have just given away huge corporate subsidies in February; we have given away other tax reductions over many, many years; we've created tax loopholes; in good times, we routinely give away taxes .."

    ---

    I want you to note that SHE (the state) GIVES away HER taxes with these tax reductions in "good times". Again, the entire economy belongs to the STATE, and it is her choice to GIVE AWAY only as little as possible for the "needs" of those who she selects ...
    Notice also that "good times" do increase revenue, but she doesn't see that = as a socialist, she only wants to "replace those tax deductions" in the lean times.
  • Santa Rosa
    Ever been there? Pretty much like Bezerkley.
  • Typical Dem
    Typical thinking from a Democrat. Which is all the money you and I make belongs to the Government, they only "allow" us to keep some of it to keep us working.
  • She's not "pretty"
    What are you talking about? Just because someone is not as ugly as pelosi, doesn't mean she is "pretty."
    Democrats are "pretty." They're demons.
  • @Mark
    In sentiment I totally agree with you; SCREW California.

    Unfortunately, and this WILL happen, just wait for it...the monetary bailout for California will end up coming out of the pockets of you and me.
  • Taxes
    It's not just that all wealth belongs to the government; the people who produce it are government property as well. It's their duty to stay put in California be sucked dry.
  • GOVERNMENT IDIOT OF THE DAY
    There are so many moonbats. How does one pick the moonbat for the day?
  • best argument for
    secession that I've seen to date - the secession of California. If they wish to pursue magical thinking as a basis for political decisions, let them do it, but leave the rest of us out. Obviously this argument could be extended to a number of States.
  • Honesty from a Dim-o-crap
    What she's really saying is that all wealth belongs to the state, so they can just take what they want. Astonishing honesty from one of the looters.
  • In other words....
    So she wants to raise taxes on business in California while the business' there are in exodus to get away from the high tax rate to begin with. Liberalism IS a mental disorder.

    Hey.....at least she's prettier than Pelosi but still, a moonbat is a moonbat.
  • I agree
    Let's just print money instead of backing it with real wealth. Eventually the dollar will be so worthless we will be on par with 3rd world countries. It'll be just what the president wants.
  • Getting
    Ca. is getting what they vote for, whether it be Pelosi, the state legislature, or this clown. I have no sympathy for that state and the mess they are in. The voters caused it; the voters must live with it.
