I felt compelled to speak up about the proposed tax increase that is posted below. The following was a letter addressed the members of both city councils and was distributed as a press release.

Who Cares What the Voters Think?

Apparently not the Reno or Sparks City Councils. According to the RGJ both councils intend to ask the legistlature for city only increases in our sales tax to fund more cops.

Jim Webb’s Response

Jim Webb talked in circles and didn’t really offer much. He […]

Paul Adams it Out

I don’t think we have an official confirmation yet, but according to Dullard Mush, he is out as Nevada GOP chair. Maybe we will actually have some candidates for the ‘08 cycle.

Blogging The State of the Union Address

It is always tough to blog a speech like that for me because I just don’t type fast enough to keep up. What I have blogged is what I could keep up with and what I felt was important.
