red state voters can learn from reality and begin to vote out fiscally conservatives representatives, and elect fiscally responsible representatives. Kansas' voters voted for demagogues and charlatans and are now paying the price. See:

Kansas slashes revenue forecast, adjusts budget to avert gap

TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) -- Kansas slashed its revenue projections on Friday, and Republican Gov. Sam Brownback's budget director immediately announced $124 million in budget adjustments to allow the state to keep paying its bills on time.

University economists, legislative researchers and officials in Brownback's administration issued a new, more pessimistic fiscal forecast for state government after months of disappointing tax collections. The new numbers recognize recent economic slumps in agriculture and energy production and what state officials have said is a national softness in recent months in consumer spending.

The state has struggled to balance its budget since GOP legislators cut personal income taxes dramatically in 2012 and 2013 at Brownback's urging, in an effort to stimulate the economy. Most of those income tax cuts have been preserved, but Republican lawmakers raised sales and cigarette taxes in July.

Everyone is hurting because of the last 10 years of democrat rule, have you not noticed? Low oil prices don't help anyone other then the consumers.

You are the quintessential partisan hack, one of too many. Did you not read the link, or is your post the first salvo in rewriting history, and to blame Democrats for the fiscal crisis in Kansas?
 
One ObamaCare website can pay the KS deficit 8 times over and that's the only website that can't even tell you when someone bought your product

Which would you rather have: a government that respects your tax dollars of one that gave you over $8 trillion in new borrowing.

Think before you answer
 
"Gov. Sam Brownback will issue $62.6 million in budget cuts and fund transfers to shore up the state’s cash reserves, his budget director announced Thursday.

"The biggest cut will come from the SCHIP program, which provides free or affordable health insurance to children of low-income families. The program will see its state funding reduced by $17.6 million. However, that will be offset by an equal increase in federal aid made possible through the Affordable Care Act."

You tell us Frank, think before you cut and run.

Trading one program for another? Brownback is smart to move the burden onto a very bad program passed without a single Republican vote

Brownback is smart? Only someone like you would believe so.
 
$62 million is a Michelle Obama vaca


Yep. one of my massive pet peeves. These people have 1mil parties at WH every few days (Beyonce etc. perform). They travel in separate airplanes far too often. He goes to Fundraiser after Fundraiser but stopping by some "official" function long enough for us to pay for it. I am so PO'd I can hardly think about it. I would estimate 1mil-10mil/day since 2008 spent to travel and play?

This in addition to all the other leeches.......Biden rent out entire floor in France, Hillary with 25 running around the world to 5start resorts, Michelle and friends anywhere anytime. WE PAY! separate airplanes hauling cars and water. Senators to Copenhagen 5star global warming crap!

enough already! cost estimated low end at 1mil*365days*8years = 2.92Bil (just for President BHO).

He's trying to close a budget deficit that's a tiny fraction of what the Obamas paid to Michelle's college roommate to build the only website on the planet that couldn't tell you when someone bought your product.

Please rationale that for us. We wasted over $1,000,000,000,000 to build a failed website
 
Meanwhile Obama and the Dems and Boehner ran up over $8 TRILLION in new debt

Nearly $7 trillion of our total debt was accumulated under Bush and Obama during years when tax revenues were under 17% of GDP. This was simply due to the Bush tax cuts which put a huge hole in tax collections during years when the economy was not doing as well as expected. Over the past 50 to 60 years, we have had federal outlays averaging around 20% of GDP with revenues averaging 18.5% of GDP. In years when revenues fell well below 18.5% of GDP, deficits soared. The bottom line is that Republican tax cuts have caused the vast majority of our debt, plain and simple. This idea that it has been overspending that has been the cause is an absolute fallacy.
