Statewide PA

Once again the Philadelphia Inquirer and its Daily News subsidiary show why their circulation numbers (and profits) continue to plummet: Because they are nothing more than a Democrat house organ propaganda outlet. They don’t report news–they manufacture and repeat, endlessly, Dem lies. Note the latest “editorial” written by the same people who supposedly report the news in what has become a Democrat rag. The editorial, reproduced below, blames the budget stalemate in the Pennsylvania on Republicans because Republicans are supposedly in the back pocket of Marcellus big oil and gas companies. The self-righteous and pure as the wind-driven snow Democrats only want all remaining profits from Marcellus Shale drilling for the chil’ren (those evil, nasty, vile big oil and gas companies, anyway). Of course the editorial says NOTHING about Democrat lust and desire for OPM–other people’s money–to fund Big Education and to repay Tom Wolf’s election debt to teachers’ unions. Nope, not a word. And that’s why rags like the Philly Inquirer and crashing and burning…

The non-partisan website InsideGov, a site built and maintained by technology company FindTheBest, used public statements, press releases, campaign platforms and voting records to score each state governor’s view on important issues. InsideGov then used the data they collected to assign values for the most conservative political philosophy, and the most liberal. No lie–the single most liberal state governor in the United States is not Andrew Cuomo–he’s #5 in the list of most liberal. Nope. The single most liberal governor in these United States is (trumpet fanfare): Tom Wolf, from Pennsylvania. Wolf is ahead of the whack-a-doos in New York, Vermont, Connecticut and even Minnesoooota. Yeah, the same Tom Wolf who wants to steal the profits from Marcellus drillers to give to teachers’ unions to pay them back for voting him into office. That Tom Wolf. Most liberal. And what do the libs at Philadelphia Magazine write? (This is hilarious.) They write that even though Wolf walks like a liberal duck, quacks like a liberal duck, swims like a liberal duck–he isn’t really all THAT liberal…

Thank God for Pennsylvania House Speaker Mike Turzai, Republican from Allegheny. Turzai continues to stand against the lunacy of Tom Wolf’s insane budget proposals, including a proposed Marcellus Shale severance tax that would further gut shale drilling in the state–handing the money raised over to teachers’ unions. Turzai said it’s time to think about overriding Wolf’s veto of the proposed Republican budget–a plan which balances the budget instead of running up the tab as Wolf would do. The Republican budget would INCREASE spending on education (something mainstream media doesn’t tell you) all while not increasing taxes on the middle class and without killing the Marcellus industry with a new/high tax. Socialist Tom Wolf won’t hear of it. So Turzai is putting out the word: Are there 16 Democrats in the House and 4 Democrats in the Senate that will be brave and bipartisan and reach across the isle to vote for a sane budget–to override Wolf’s veto? Apparently not yet–but perhaps there will be in time. Meanwhile, Wolf’s dirty tricks division continues to launch advertisements to smear Republicans, something Turzai calls “tawdry and unproductive”…
