    The phony Mackinac Center list again? (none / 0) (#2)
    by NoviDemocrat on Sat May 03, 2008 at 06:20:18 PM EST
    Every Republicon loves the Mackinac Center list but not one of them will vote for legislation that actually includes the cuts to state service that they suggest. For example, the Mackinac Center keeps talking about dumping state police patrols for county sheriff patrons. But not one Republicon has ever offered up that for legislation:

    Why not? It's part of the MC's $1.9 billion in cuts that Republicons say they want to implement. But none of the Republicons in Lansing are pushing it and I've yet to see a Republicon run for office suggesting the state police patrols be cut.

    Another MC proposal is to cut funding for 20j districts. These are largely suburban puyblic school districts represented by Republicons. Any one of them could offer to cut their local public school funding, showing that they are serious about reducing the state budget. But not one of them has offered up that legislation. It's proof again that the Republicons talk the talk but don't walk the walk.
