Now this is a Tea Party

California voters have rejected five budget measures in a special election, forcing Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger to face a $21 billion deficit

Just to drive the point home, the day after state voters rejected Schwarzenegger's spending ballot measures, the California Citizens Compensation Commission voted to slash pay for the governor, legislators and statewide officeholders by 18 percent.

The California taxpayer revolt evidenced in the rejection of the five budget resolutions by margins approaching two-thirds of the voters was consistent with the spirit of the April 15 tea parties held around the nation, in which average Americans protested the Obama administration's trillion dollar deficit spending and the move to increase federal and state taxes to finance the deficits.

This time, Schwarzenegger may be forced to fire 5,000 of the state's 235,000 workers and engage in a series of additional cuts that involve slashing education by $5 billion, selling key state properties such as the Los Angeles Coliseum and borrowing $2 billion from local governments, according to the Los Angeles Times.

The newspaper also reported that a worst-case scenario could call for the release from state prisons of up to 19,000 illegals who would face deportation, plus the transfer of up to 23,000 state prisoners to county jails.

I think is the feeling all over the US right now.

Think Obama and the Dem's will take the hint?

The tea partiers were only a bunch of billy bobs and racists, mind you, so probably nothing to take notice of.
