St. Louis Post-Dispatch: The Voters Don't Want Blunt's Integrity

From an editorial today:

Gov. Matt Blunt initiated the cuts. He came to office promising not to raise taxes under any circumstances and looking at a deficit. So he whacked the subsidies - about $12 million a year - to balance the budget.

Given the choice between keeping his promise to voters or sparing thousands of Missouri children from the suffering those cuts will cause, Mr. Blunt turned his back on the children.

Is that really what Missouri taxpayers want?

Do Missouri taxpayers want a politician with integrity, who keeps his promises, instead of the run-of-the-mill "leader" who will promise restraint and then continue the unchecked expansion of government and government spending?

Well, we here at DMB2008 cannot speak for all taxpayers, but we do want Matt Blunt....for President!
