State income tax? Rossi's attempt to tar Gregoire is spurious

Why pick on Dino? When Gregoire was sneaking into town to talk to the Hispanic community, seeking the votes of illegals, you didn't say anything bad about her. When she took all that Indian Casino money, you didn't say anything bad about her. When she started her job with about a $200 million budget excess, and spends us into about a 800 million debt, you don't say anything bad about her, (even the Times criticized that ). Could it be you've lost your "objectivity in reporting" I saw mentioned in a previous editorial a while back. I think you must favor Gregoire, no matter what she does.

Do you folks even know what spurious means? After reading your article on her (non)support it is very obvious that Chris supports a state income tax but she is too shy to come out and voice her support because she thinks it isn't a popular thing. We need a governor who is NOT afraid to say and support what he thinks is best for the state. I am beginning to see why you are no longer called the Yakima Herald Republic, rather the Yakima Horrible Repulsive. Come on. Are you just one more member of the liberal media? The answer is obvious.

Every time a self-styled conservative republican has a person that differs with him or her thay are called a nasty liberal. Is there such a person as a Republican liberal? O r a fiscal conservative that is a social liberal?
