>>What I'm saying is hat when the Republicans ran the show -- the state had huge deficit -- and when the Dems took over it went away.
And I'm telling you where it went away to. It raised the federal deficit by as much as it reduced the CA deficit. Which is hardly fair, when you think about it.

"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us."
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
