Remember that one time Mary said that she was the most qualified candidate because she was a mother? We always questioned her family values, nd now as it turns out she’s actually making choices that hurt newborns and those starting families.
Oops
The governor returns this weekend from Ireland where she attended the wedding of her daughter, Christina, 24 to the 32-year old Bacon.
A check of records in the state court system indicated a Matthew William Bacon was arrested in 2003 for selling Oxycodone within 2,000 feet of an Oklahoma County school.
While hardworking Oklahomans put in long hours to provide for their families, Governor Fallin is taking an exotic vacation to the Bahamas and GOP leaders in the House and Senate are vowing to take it easy.
According to the Tulsa World, Fallin spokesman Alex Weintz said the governor left Saturday afternoon for the Bahamas with her husband and three of their children. Meanwhile, the state of Oklahoma is burning and House Republicans are spiraling out of control. Just this week, Rep. Randy Terrill (R-Moore) has been reprimanded by the House of Representatives for violently threatening to break the Speaker of the House’s leg and referring to him as a mentally handicapped person. Fallin is expected to return to the state Thursday afternoon or evening.
This vacation is taking place during bill deadline week — a time during legislative session where traditionally, all hands are on deck to get all bills filed. Instead, the state Senate has elected to adjourn Wednesday and the state house is choosing to meet from 9 a.m. until 6 p.m., Monday through Thursday. In previous years, House and Senate members have worked until midnight during deadline week. House Floor Leader Daniel Sullivan (R-Tulsa) said, “I don’t plan to stay late. If bills are not heard within the time allowed, they will not be heard”.
Mary Fallin’s Cut’s just ain’t gonna cut it.
According to the the WaPo:
“After slamming Democrats for not focusing on “jobs, jobs, jobs,” Republicans have decided to ignore their own winning message in favor of “cuts, cuts, cuts.” This is bad economics - and bad politics. . .”
This is because it turns out that
“When asked whether government, in general, is trying to do too much or not doing enough, 51 percent said government should do more. That’s not exactly a mandate for slashing federal, state and municipal programs and trying to turn public employees into a caste of untouchables…
“A pretty impressive 40 percent said that “the deficit and government spending” should be considered the federal government’s No. 1 or No. 2 task. But a far more impressive 56 percent said that “job creation and economic growth” should be given first or second priority. “
But leaders like Governor Mary Fallin aren’t listening to the people whether Americans or Oklahomans, she’s listening to a small subset of her party that just happens to be the loudest. Instead Mary talks about “creating jobs” and then in the same breath talks about consolidation (which cuts jobs), cutting spending (more jobs), cutting the income tax which cuts funding for… you guessed it… people’s jobs, and bringing more business to Oklahoma (bringing more out of state workers for Oklahoma jobs). You go girl! Create those jobs! How many net jobs has Governor Mary Fallin created so far? Anyone got a tally?
