Spending like drunken sailors
The ledger reports today link
In all, lawmakers are considering at least $35 million in appropriations and tax breaks this week, even as state treasury officials warn of a $5 billion budget shortfall awaiting Corzine.
Those bills, most introduced since Dec. 1, would add spending to the $28.3 billion state budget that passed in June. Forecasts show the state is on track to completely wipe out that spending plan's $600 million surplus.
Actually, that would be insulting drunken sailors. Pigs feeding at the trough.

That insults pigs. How about, par for the course for New Jersey?
A leader would speak up now and denounce this. Mr. Corzine, are you listening?
He's listening, but not to you. Maybe we can get George Norcross to ask him...
The difference between Jersey's Democrats and a drunken sailor is that the sailor knows he eventually has to sober up.
