Rep. Randy Demmer (R-Hayfield) (left) and Rep. Marty Seifert (R-Marshall) (right) swing by the Olmsted County Republicans Central Committee Meeting for a brief legislative report after a Rochester Chamber of Commerce event."When everything was said and done, more was said than done." - MN House Republican Leader Marty Seifert (R-Marshall) on the 2007 Minnesota legislative session.
It was quite the treat to have Minnesota House Republican Leader Rep. Marty Seifert (R-Marshall) stop by the Olmsted County Republicans Central Committe Meeting tonight. Rep. Seifert reported on how out of touch with the reality of the session DFLers are. One of the legislators who dutifully voted for spending bill after spending bill but didn't vote for the tax bill to pay for them now claims to be a "fiscal conservative." That's liberal "logic" for you.
Rep. Demmer summarized the defeat of liberal abusive taxation aspirations in Minnesota by saying that, at the end of the day, "the tail wagged the dog." They may have taken over both the state house and senate but Governor Pawlenty and Republican legislators stopped DFLers in their tax-and -spend tracks.
The liberal spin machine is in full gear. They have spent the last five months in St. Paul trying to tax Minnesota into oblivion. Now Reps. Kim Norton, Andy Welti and Tina Liebling, as well as Sen. Ann Lynch, will pretend they spent the last few months trying to improve the lives of Minnesotans instead of implementing senseless legislation and abusive taxation.
DFLers want to make Minnesota a "better" place to live and work by taxing and legislating everything that lives and works. Yeah, that makes sense. To liberals.
