Radical liberal former Berkeley Mayor now State Senator Loni Hancock (pictured left, of course) has taken the opportunity to tee-off on Americans for Tax Reform, the ATR No New Taxes Pledge, and blasts away at the requirement in the California constitution to have a super-majority vote to raise taxes. You can read her rant here. Below I am pleased to present an official response to Hancock’s rant from Patrick Gleason with Americans for Tax Reform. I think he does a fine job of putting the socialistic “government can’t be big enough” Hancock in her place….
A RESPONSE FROM AMERICANS FOR TAX REFORM TO SENATOR LONI HANCOCK (D-BERKELEY)
It appears that Senator Loni Hancock (D-Berkeley) deems it an appropriate use of scarce state resources to send falsehoods and pro-tax hike propaganda to all of her constituents, at taxpayer expense. This in the context of a state treasury that her colleagues proclaim is nearly empty, a budget that is forecast to dive over $40 billion into the red in the coming 18 months, and a private sector shedding jobs by the tens of thousands every week.

Thats just great! Change the subject and demonize a known whack job communist.
More time should be spent on the wavering turncoat RINOS about to vote for tax increases after they signed pledges not to raise taxes…citizens voted and trusted these losers…Never ever listen to a so called moderate Republican…never….hope springs eternal ONLY when taxes decrease….

How do you know you’re dealing with an intellectual bankrupt? Ad hominem attacks. They got nuthin’ so it becomes all about the evil genius behind all the stupid Republican drones who couldn’t come up with a principled though if their lives depended on it. They don’t have Karl Rove to kick around anymore so now it’s Grover Norquist.
Well I’ve got news for you honey, our principles come to us from the founding fathers, not the SEIU, and at long last, we’re going to stop enabling you. You’re running the state into the ground, but now you’ll have to do it without our help.
