Judged: 2 2 2 rugby and von ryan are the REAL Greeks: "The Greek Constitution institutionalizes broad areas where no taxes are gathered, starting with revenues from shipping. Billionaire Greek Shipping magnates never have to pay one penny in taxes. They have expanded it to include capital gains and dividend income, yep they have the Romney/Ryan budget for years on the income side." rugby/von ryan '12: let us prey |

Judged: 2 2 2 Tell the NW perfessor he's full of crap!! Romney’s record of fiscal discipline continued throughout his tenure as governor. After his cuts for FY 2003, government spending did rise eventually, though he managed to cut it again in real terms from 2004 to 2005. Between 2004 and 2006, in fact, Massachusetts’s economy rebounded so energetically that even in years when the state increased spending, it also ran a surplus, allowing the state to shore up its “rainy day” stabilization fund, a key element of state fiscal stability. Mitt Romney assumed the office of Governor in January 2003 and left in January 2007: 2003 Mass. unemployment rate, 5.5% USA 5.8% 2006 Romney left office Mass. 4.8% and USA 4.6% Romney suffered the same in his term as the US did from 2006 to 2010, a complete dem legislature (US dem congress) He raised NO taxes, paid off the states debt. The lack of job creation was due to the dot.com bubble burst. Y'know, the one ol slick willie based his "surplus" on. When it busted the left cried "Bush spent it!" What a load of left manure!!! |

Judged: 2 2 2 You lie again, dingleberry! Following the discovery of leaks in the I-93 tunnel, Romney called for the resignation of Matthew Amorello, the Chairman and CEO of the Turnpike Authority. Amorello refused to resign and in June 2005, Romney asked the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court to grant him the authority to fire Amorello. The request was denied, as the court declined to hear his case. In July 2006 a woman was killed when a section of the I-90 roof collapsed on her car. Citing continued mismanagement of the project, Romney once again called for Amorello's dismissal and initiated legal proceedings to oust the chairman. Despite calls from Massachusetts Attorney General Tom Reilly, House Speaker Salvatore DiMasi, Senate President Robert Travaglini, Boston Mayor Thomas Menino, the chairman of both the house and senate transportation committees and the editorial boards of the Boston Globe and Herald, Amorello once again refused to step aside. Romney responded by filing emergency legislation to wrest control of the inspection of the Big Dig tunnel system from the Turnpike Authority. The Massachusetts State Legislature overwhelmingly approved the legislation, which Romney signed on July 14, 2006. The Department of Transportation began immediate inspections of the I-90 tunnel and pledged a "stem to stern" review of the entire Big Dig Tunnel System. Meanwhile, Romney continued his effort to fire Amorello. He scheduled a termination hearing for the Chairman for July 27, 2006. Facing increasing pressure from associates and colleagues, Amorello resigned. |

Judged: 1 1 1 Romney repeatedly pushed the state legislature to roll back the state income tax from 5.3% to 5.0%(Massachusetts has a flat income tax). He also proposed a "tax-free shopping day", a property tax relief for Seniors, and a manufacturing tax credit. |

Judged: 2 2 2 He raised no taxes, but every fee for anything government did went up. It's the same thing as raising taxes, just sneakier. Massachusetts suffered the second-largest labor force decline in the nation: Only Louisiana, which was ravaged by Hurricane Katrina in 2005, saw a bigger decline in its labor force than Massachusetts during Romney’s tenure as governor. Massachusetts lost 14 percent of its manufacturing jobs during Romney’s time in office Massachusetts piled on more debt than any other state: Romney left Massachusetts residents with $10,504 in per capita bond debt, the highest of any state in the nation when he left office in 2007. |
