[Cosmo] Kaine compares GOP opposition to ‘Seinfeld’
Richmond Times-Dispatch
Gov. Timothy M. Kaine today compared the Republican opposition to a transportation fix to a episode of the TV show “Seinfeld.”
From Lt. Governor Bill Bolling’s statement:
“Unfortunately, much of the responsibility for this failure rests on the shoulders of Governor Kaine, who decided to call legislators back to Richmond without building any consensus around a possible transportation solution. In my judgment, the Governor’s decision to call the Special Session without first developing a framework for success was a mistake.
“In addition, Governor Kaine complicated the effort to find a transportation solution by introducing a transportation proposal that had very little, if any, support in the General Assembly. The Governor’s bill, which relied on massive statewide and regional tax increases, was not even supported by the members of his own party, and it was clearly not the right solution given the economic challenges that Virginia is currently facing.”
The Write Side of My Brain 
There is nothing funny about a bunch of legislators who make a pile of excuses, rather than to work across the aisle to develop a set of solutions to meet the needs of the People.
The citizens must elect a new set of representatives who will really work on their behalf. For the next several election cycles, the citizens need to vote out of office all of those who currently clog-up the legislative process with their special interests (like Mr. Howell and his foreign toll road multinationals).
THROW THE BUMS OUT! Democrats and Republicans must unite against the current crop of do-nothing incumbents on both sides of the aisle. THROW THE BUMS OUT!
