Chaos at the Capitol
Are the Imbeciles in Charge Finally listening?
One thing became clear last week was that budget negotiations, AKA raising taxes, had hit the wall. First Minority Leader Scott Inman makes a fool out of himself by doing a press conference stating that he and the Republian leaders had struck a deal only to have RINO Fallin herself cut him off at the knees hours later. Poor Fallin, facial features partially frozen probably due to a botched botox treatment, responded with her own press conference stating that chaos reined and no budget deal had been struck.
RINO House members, including some freshmen who had been massive disappointment in the regular session have taken to Facebook proclaiming their opposition to tax increases after voting for a billion dollars in the regular session. It is finally sinking in; the voters might just throw them out on their ears in June of 2018 if they don't come to their senses and hold the line on new and increased taxation.
Up for grabs are hundreds of millions of dollars in farm fuel tax exemptions to be cut, a new 2% tax increase on fuel for the rest of us, the cigarette tax of $1.50 per pack, raising taxes on the higher income earners to 5.25%, and bringing the Gross Production Tax back up to historic levels and closer to matching the 7 to 10% rates of nearby states.
Here is another video from the Oklahoman showing the frozen eyebrows, droopy eye and lip, causing a lot of political insiders to ask if Fallin has suffered a stroke or if it is simply another boxtox treatment that went south on the old RINO>
The Freshmen legislators are finding their voices too with some of the more outspoken ones such as Fettgatter and Josh West creating ugly reputations by trying to intimidate the conservative House Members into voting for the tax increases and new taxes.
Josh West in particular has made a complete a** out of himself. He is a large man, a former military guy that brags a lot about his service and having PSTD. Perhaps things are different these days but back in the day the one thing you could count on was if a veteran from WWII, the Korean War, or Vietnam was running their mouth about their service then it sent up red flags with their fellow veterans.
Several comments were made by legislators about Josh West's abusive behavior so we decided to find a suitable video to share that sums the guy up.
