Happy To Cut The Crap For A Better Minnesota
By Mitch Berg
Gary Gross provides the whole world a public service, enshrining this remark by Saint Paul DFL legislator Cy Thao – an ultraliberal H’mong solon – for all posterity:
Today, at a committee hearing, Cy Thao told Steve “When you guys win, you get to keep your money. When we win, we take your money.” This was Thao’s explanation as to how the DFL plans on paying for all the spending increases they promised their special interest friends.
Note to state GOP organizers; we need to get 10,000 signs printed that say:
When you guys win, you get to keep your money.
When we win, we take your money
Cy Thao (DFL St. Paul), 2007
Please tell me you’re on this.

Or maybe a paraphrase for a bumper sticker:
When Republicans win, you get to keep your money.
When Democrats win, they take your money.

Aw, you guys just don’t understand that it’s the job of the left to spend your money for you! After all, they’re just so much smarter!

Yeah! “We know what to do with your money that you!”
March 30th, 2007 at 7:21 pm
Ooops. That should read “We know what to do with your money better than you!”

Let’s not forget to thank Sen. Sandy Pappas for declaring that “We’re starving Higher Education”. Let’s remember to thank Sen. Steve Murphy for his saying “I’m not trying to hide anything. There’s alot of taxes in this bill.”
If you want quotes like this, visit my blog (www.letfreedomringblog.com) on a regular basis. It’s my goal to enshrine all of these quotes in my blog’s pages.

oh my.
*heh*
If the DFL were clever, they’d ask him to step down. I don’t think a statement like that can be credibly retracted.

[…] Someone tell Cy Thao. This is an absolute. Property makes liberty […]
