Not a penny

As I'm wrapping up a business deal this morning, I opened Prairie Pravda to see this headline:"Senate committee authorizes Vikings stadium study". Seems the lefty controlled Senate has given 2,000,000 of your dollars to fund a study as to how much more of your money ($100,000,000's ) is going to be given to make another billionaire richer. Seems they don't have access to the polls that showed a vast majority of taxpayers did NOT want to fund the Twins stadium and make multi-billionaire Carl Pohlad richer. Anybody want to bet that those same people, and now even more people feel the same way about a Vikings stadium? Yah, the Democrats are for the common man. Right.
Hey, here's a real American capitalist idea: let the Vikings spend more of their money to study how they're going to raise their own money to make themselves richer.

It was Pawlenty who pushed the Twins stadium through. The formerly conservative party now outspends the democrats. You can have your party of McCain and Pawlenty, but you're guaranteed to lose when you stand for nothing. Mine was the party of Goldwater, Reagan and Ron Paul.

No argument here at all. I excoriated Pawlenty for signing the Twins Stadium bill (http://www.savagerepublican.com/2006/05/dear-governor-pawlenty.html and http://www.savagerepublican.com/2006_05_21_archive.html).
I've taken Republicans to task many, many times in this blog. I posted a link to the Basswood Research showing how Americans now see the Republicans as the party of Big Government(http://www.savagerepublican.com/2007/01/republicans-newly-recognized-party-of.php).
So, again, absolutely no argument from me. This time, though, it's the DFL controlled Senate that started this taxpayer killing snowball.

Don't forget old Normie when he pushed St. Paul to build and own Excel Center where the Repubs will be able to party this Summer.
