    the problem is abuse of tax dollars (none / 0) (#19)
    by leondrolet on Sat May 10, 2008 at 09:27:59 AM EST
    Rep. Ball sees no problem whatsoever in using tax dollars to express his opinion on an election issue. Obviously, Ball has a right to any opinion he wants with regard to the recall election of Speaker Dillon. He can go door-knock for him and contribute his money to Dillon's campaign. But he, instead, decided to use citizens' tax dollars to direct state employees to write a resolution opposing a "yes" vote in a recall election.

    He then took up at least an hour of the legislature's time (more tax dollars) so that legislators could consider passing his opinion on an election by specifically having HR 358 "oppose the recall of Speaker Dillon".

    What's next? Taxpayers-paid mailings out of Lansing telling Dillon's constituents how they should vote? House Dem leadership and Rep. Ball either are too blinded by their positions or don't care about their obvious abuse of tax dollars to express their opinions on election issues.
